The Buddha’s Words
“He who has gone for refuge to the Buddha, the Dhamma, and the Sangha, sees with right knowledge the Four Noble Truths - Dukkha, the cause of Dukkha, the transcending of Dukkha and the Noble Eightfold Path which leads to the cessation of Dukkha. This indeed is refuge secure. This indeed is refuge supreme.”
