English Version
HOMAGE TO THE BUDDHA
Such, indeed, is the Exalted One: worthy, perfectly enlightened, endowed with knowledge and conduct, well-gone, knower of the worlds, supreme trainer of people to be tamed, enlightened and exalted.
HOMAGE TO THE DHAMMA
Well expounded is the Dhamma by the Exalted One,
directly visible, immediately effective,
calling one to come and see,
leading onwards,
to be personally realized by the wise.
HOMAGE TO THE SANGHA
The Order to the Exalted One’s disciples is practicing well; the Order of the Exalted One’s disciples is practicing rightly; the Order of the Exalted One’s disciples is practicing correctly; the Order of the Exalted One’s disciples is practicing properly – -that is, the four pairs of persons, the eight kinds of individuals, this Order of the Exalted One’s disciples Worthy of offering and hospitality, Worthy of gifts and salutation, Supreme field of merit for the world.
