Principles
As the Buddha did (for his community of
nuns and monks), in order to harmonize their relationships with each
others and integrate them gracefully into their present community and
circumstances, inspired by His teaching, we came up with a few
principles to which all the members of the Ancient Massage Foundation
adhere in addition to the set of rules
already mentioned
elsewhere in this website.
1. I will bring good reputation to
the Ancient Massage Foundation by updating
my address, email address and phone number on the website in time. I will
use an email address only if I plan to reply to emails promptly.
This was added after receiving comments
that some were not responding to emails or could not be
reached over the phone.
2. Abstain from any sexual conduct with any
client and student.
This was added after one of our therapist was
perceived to have misbehaved.
3. Respect toward your teacher and your
teacher's family and dependents is certainly of good advice in order to keep it
all smooth and harmonious. Your teacher and all his family and dependents
have an unbreakable and sacred bond with you, which is very difficult to
keep intact when you misbehave.
This was added after the staff of the foundation
were insulted, when hatred was expressed and so forth which generated a
lot of difficulties and distress on both sides.
4. Do not use "The Ancient Massage
Foundation" and "The Healing Hands Center" for your self or to name your
"business". You can only reefer to it as the place where you studied and
from where you qualified. You should develop your own "trade mark" and
identify your work only with your own "trade mark".
This was added in response to advise
received from our legal advisors and other considerations.
5. As a member I agree to abide by these principles and rules.
