"Monks and nuns renounce worldly life, emphasising the observance of celibacy, an abstinence from alcohol and meat and so on. Ngakmas and Ngakpas rely on internal renunciation rather than on external renunciation. We try to transmute our everyday life-circumstances as the means of practice. Relationships with one's partner, family, friends and colleagues at work are all regarded as the very basis of liberation and every facet of life-circumstances provides workable ground for practice."
