1. The Three Refuges
I go for refuge to the Buddha,
I go for refuge to the Dhamma,
I go for refuge to the Saṅgha.
For the second time, I go for refuge to the Buddha,
For the second time, I go for refuge to the Dhamma,
For the second time, I go for refuge to the Saṅgha.
For the third time, I go for refuge to the Buddha,
For the third time, I go for refuge to the Dhamma.
For the third time, I go for refuge to the Saṅgha.
