Most of the rules employed by the TMO at the various domes agree with most zen sesshins I've attended over the years. In fact, meditating in the Patanjali Dome would be considered liberal by most zen masters and Tibetan lama mediation leaders as well. It would be amusing to see Turq inside an actual Buddhist retreat to see how he would sneak in some ice cream to eat while sitting on the mat!
