About Noah Levine and Refuge Recovery Treatment Centers: The Buddhist path to treating addiction is one of developing wisdom and compassion through meditation, renunciation and wise actions such as service, amends, forgiveness, and generosity. Buddhism offers a non-theistic spiritual path, perfect for the discerning Agnostic/Atheist addict. Refuge Recovery is a program that can be worked in conjunction with or as an alternative to twelve steps.
