The chanting that opened the Saturday evening talk.
Namo tassa bhagavato arahato sammāsambuddhassa
Aspiring to the Blessed, the Fully Purified, the Complete Awakening
(translation by Namgyal Rinpoche)
Buddhaṃ saraṇaṃ gacchāmi
Dhammaṃ saraṇaṃ gacchāmi
Saṅghaṃ saraṇaṃ gacchāmi
I go to the Buddha for refuge, I go to the Dhamma for refuge, I go to the Sangha for refuge – for a second time, and for a third time.
(translation by Thanissaro Bhikkhu)
Oṃ maṇi padme hūṃ
The mantra of Avalokiteśvara, the bodhisattva of compassion.
