In Tibet, cannabis is illegal for recreational use, similar to the rest of China. However, the cultivation of cannabis for industrial purposes (hemp) is not prohibited. However, Vajrayana Buddhism, prevalent in Tibet, is more open to cannabis use in certain contexts due to its focus on understanding the true nature of all things, including those seen as defiled, according to some Tantric Buddhist texts.
