Contributing a Buddhist perspective to the work of the inter-faith team to provide spiritual support to those within the Scottish criminal justice system. e. Working with Buddhist chaplains within other settings as required. ii) The relief of those in spiritual need by reason of their imprisonment by: Encouraging prisoners to take responsibility for their past actions and to have faith in the possibility of a better future. Providing prisoners with tools such as mindfulness and other techniques to cultivate empathy and compassion to help increase their sense of wellbeing and their ability to relate positively to others. Providing prisoners with a framework for understanding and meeting the challenges and difficulties of their lives.
