Buddhist monks and nuns are celibate and avoid bodily contact in general (especially with the opposite sex). Rather than shaking hands, we greet one another by joining palms.
Give it a little time: visiting a Buddhist monastery is like taking a trip to a foreign land, full of history, culture, and tradition. Give yourself a little time; to settle in and get adjusted. You'll learn some Buddhist etiquette during the class.
