This ceremony is usually held at a temple or a Zen monastery , including the following rites : Reciting incense, white Buddha , offering incense offering and paying tribute to the Three Jewels . During the ceremony the refuge , beyond the ritual of repentance , with ritual is important ceremony vows : " Refuge Buddha , refuge in France ,Take refuge in Sangha ".

Depending on the devotion of each Buddhist , they can promise to take two or three precepts or the full five precepts ... to adhere to in life.every day . But normally it is advised that Buddhists try to keep the five precepts . Why so? Because the person who holds all the five precepts is a person who has a moral life . A virtuous person is a person who lives a peaceful life because he does not suffer himself and others. After taking refuge in the Three Jewels and taking the precepts , the guru will give the disciple a certificate of the Three Jewels Refuge , on which there is the date of refuge and the name of the Buddha . The legal name is the name of religion by teachers guru bestowed . French identity is used in family spirituality , that is, between teachers and students, and your religion together . The Tam Bao Refuge Certificate is like a birth certificate, marking the date that Buddhists attend In a new spiritual life , there is a new direction depending on the Three Jewels to practice for enlightenment and liberation . IV. MISSION OF THE BUDDHA IN THE HOUSE Having taken refuge in the Three Jewels , officially becoming disciples of the Buddha, we need to learn about the Buddha , who enlightened Buddhism . How do we learn about His life from birth until the day he left the luxury life in the palace ? Why from a full-fledged martial arts prince , beautiful wife and beautiful children, in front of him is the throne to rule the world , but the Princethen let go of everything, choose the wandering life of the mendicant here and there? As disciples we need to find out how His practice path like? He himself won himself his like? And after becoming enlightened, what did you do for sentient beings? There is a clear understanding of the Enlightened One . Who Buddhists new courage to believe in the Three Jewels that wholeheartedly take refuge in the Three Jewels , lo moral progress to achieve the ultimate freedom from suffering enlightened as Career Supreme was founding a whole religion. Want to achieve the purpose out of suffering, the Buddhist at least to a smooth learning and practice in accordance Dharma . So although no one mandatory but the Buddhists at home also has the task , is outside learning about the teachings of the Sangha , and to apply that lesson in life every day of his keeping the five precepts morality that I received during the Three Jewels Refuge Ceremony . These five precepts are the five armorprotect not we committed mistakes severely hamper step forward convent of us . In addition , the Buddhists also need to know the activities of the refuge has two aspects . That is the area "The" and "Li". A. "THE" REGULATION TAM BAO : Having taken refuge in the Three Jewels and receiving the five precepts , we must practice the Three Precepts with respectful appearance , obeying the Three Jewels , called " The Refuge of the Three Jewels ". - Refuge of the Buddha : Every day we must always remember the Buddha 's practice by reciting his name , we should often contemplate his statue , image . We always sincerely bowed Buddha to express their reverence and prayer lifelong learning , practicing according to the Buddha's teachings . It was an act refuge in the Buddha , the term called " The Refuge Buddha". - The Refuge France : Everyday chant prayers , law, logic, two times early yesterday elaborately learn sense intensive suspension of the Dharma . If we do not understand the deep meaning, just chanting it to read it is also helpful , because when we recite the scriptures, our mind does not start thinking about bad and evil things. Thanks so that interested us is peace , purity . It's " The Refuge France". - The Refuge of Sangha : We often hear: " respect for the Buddha must respect the Sangha ". So we sincerely worship Buddha how much we have to be very reverence Increase this much, because now the Buddha was passing away , if not with the monk serial circuit network Buddhism , the religion of compassion and wisdom will no more. Therefore, when a Buddhist sees a general with " round square head, true practice , observing the precepts ..." then arise respectful mind , respect, see him as a representative of the Buddha . Such action is " Increased Refuge ". B. TAKE REFUGE or "TAM AUTHORIZATION" "Li Refuge in the Three Jewels" or " Three Character Refuge " means the Buddhists outside " The Three Refuges ", expressing its his glasses for Jewels through the rituals of Buddhism , chanting , anniversary The Buddha , a true Buddhist , needs to spend time practicing meditation , recognizing the three jewels within himself, not always making a bow for the outside Three Jewels , but having to " Ly Su" . information, match both harmoniously. We can understand "The" is the outer form , is the cultivation of the form, and "Ly" is the inner return , the cultivation of nature. Who knows, in ritual ceremonies, beginning we often Buddha said, Dharma , Sangha . At the end of the ceremony, we often recite the Tam Tu Quy Y : “- To take refuge in the Buddha , may sentient beings , be able to follow the whole religion, be mindless . - Self- refuge in the Dharma , may sentient beings fully understand the canon , wisdom like the sea. - Self refuge in the Sangha , please pray beings , President of Massdon't mind all ”. So self- refuge is how to take refuge ? - Self Refuge Buddha : Taking refuge in the Buddha , the Dharma, and the Sangha is to take refuge outside, and " self- refuge " is to return to take refuge in the Three Jewels . Be yourself. " Taking refuge in Buddha " is to return to relying on one's own Buddha, that is, to return to the Buddha the lucid nature of one's mind. The Buddha once said " sentient beings , everyone has Buddha nature " but why do n't we see Buddhahood? It is because we have cultivated too many qi , day-to-day or day-to-day exercises into our minds . These habitual illegal or that is routine good, bad, are thought compare , distinguish , injured hate, anger, greed, hatred and ignorance ... those things in Buddhism called curtain of ignorance . Curtain of ignoranceThis becomes more and more dense each day, obscuring the lucid nature inherent in each person, making people live in delusion , darkness , and afflictions . Blackout ignorance is like clouds of black stop obscuring the moon makes for no space is bright suddenly dark again, but when there is strong wind blowing scatter the light of the moon the appearance of harmony to all beings the same. Ignorance and Buddha nature too . Huh Ignorance disappears, Buddha nature manifests . "Self- refuge Buddha " is returning to take refuge with oneself, revealing the Buddha in one's mind. How does Buddha nature manifest? The Buddha's basis is bodhicitta , awareness, perception, knowing. When the six sense bases: eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, and mind are in contact with the six ceilings : color, sound, flavor, taste, contact, and dharma; at that moment have the knowledge immediately clear that no one thought of attachment. That is pure objective knowledge , which is Buddha. And the knowing that birth and destruction likes this, hate that is the subjective knowledge , false , issublime . About Prayer " Self refuge in the Buddha , pray for us students understand religion all play supreme interest ". Mindlessness is Bodhi mind which is Buddha nature . We ourselves do not realize our " Buddha nature" , then this vow is just an empty vow that is of no use to us to say anything to others. - Self- Refuge Dharma : It is the truth that the Buddha has realized and then taught to sentient beings . We recite, recite the Buddha's law, which is " The Refuge France ". Now, " Self Refuge of Dharma " is to return and take refuge in the Buddha's teaching right here. Buddha taught the methods from easy , Cross II predestined , Luc degrees etc ... We must " be entered " those that in the life of our. That means we recognize these lessons the Buddha taught ourselves . We must apply these lessons on the selves of us and practice to save themselves by themselves. For example, a lesson on the Four Noble Truths is the lesson raised four truths : Noble Truth , to ultimate , Killing insole and sole director . Studying the Four Noble Truths , we know that all human beings are non-suffering. I also suffer. If you want to get rid of suffering, you must know that the cause of suffering is greed, anger, ignorance, pride, doubts, evil views ... are the factors that create the results of suffering collectively called the Noble Truth . Eliminate these causes and the suffering will gradually decrease. When destruction isPracticing the truth , the suffering will be gone. Right there called the Noble Truth . Removal empire was the result of meticulous cultivation practices sole director . Sole director has thirty seven direct aids , crucial is the Noble Eightfold Path are: Right , right thought , right speech , right action , right livelihood , right effort , mindfulness , right concentration . Practicing those eight will bring us to the statusof the sages , all suffering is happy So the Noble Truth is a human being to eliminate all suffering, which is the result. Suffering no longer is called the Noble Truth , which is the realm of Nirvana . In a nutshell , " Self- Refuge " is self- applying to the basic Dharma taught by the Buddha. So, they vow " Self refuge in France , pray for sentient beings penetrate the three organs of wisdom as the sea ," a new value is a fraction of the Tripitaka vast immense . - Self Refuge Sangha : Refugee Medicine Sang is relying on a pure group of continents . The meaning of "Self Refuges Boost " is individuals alone should be a monk live " harmoniously" ie live according to the principle of harmony as follows: 1) Body harmonious universe (relative harmony with in general ), 2 ) Export Air countless paintings ( Suggestion built in the spirit of peace where no controversy ), 3) Italy sociable browser ( Empathy , not envy Critics criticize ), 4) Learning sociable Prize ( shared understanding , based on the interests General ) About Air initiates ( the practice and respect for international law ), Loi sociable Force ( beneficial harmony with divided ). When I have really lived a religious life in accordance with the six principles mentioned above by the Buddha , my future propagation will not be hindered and the vow " To take refuge in the Sangha , pray for sentient beings . do not hesitate to all the public " have the opportunity to achieve . V. CONCLUSION The meaning of the Three Jewels Refuge is to return to rely on the Buddha Dharma . Relying here is to learn what Buddha taught to correct his own life for the better and better. As for myself Refuge is that she must return to ourselves, review body and mind their own on the path toward fruition enlightened liberation , rather than entrust the life of yourself in the words of prayer Jewels outwardly, because Buddha isThe Master gives us the cultivation method, we have to learn and practice by ourselves . The Buddha is like a good doctor , we are sick people who seek him. He diagnoses and prescribes medicine, if we refuse to buy medicine and take medicine, the disease will never go away. So, initially learning the Buddha, the Refugees of the Three Jewels need to strictly observe the five precepts, which are the end of killing , giving up , giving up , cessing evil deeds in senses, renouncing lies, and cessing drunkenness. , addicts.
