Homage to that Blessed One, the perfected one, the fully awakened Buddha!
I take refuge in the Buddha,
I take refuge in the Teaching,
I take refuge in the Sangha.
For the second time I take refuge in the Buddha,
for the second time I take refuge in the Teaching,
for the second time I take refuge in the Sangha.
For the third time I take refuge in the Buddha,
for the third time I take refuge in the Teaching,
for the third time I take refuge in the Sangha.
