Taking Refuge Verse--San Francisco Zen Center

August 04, 2025

I take refuge in buddha.
Before all beings.
Immersing body and mind.
Deeply in the way.
Awakening true mind. 

I take refuge in dharma.
Before all beings.
Entering deeply.
The merciful ocean.
Of buddha's way. 

I take refuge in sangha.
Before all beings.
Bringing harmony.
To everyone.
Free from hindrance.
