• Homage To The Three Jewels * The Four Great Vows

May the sweet scent of our keeping the precepts,
of our meditation, of our wisdom, of our liberation,
and of the knowledge of our liberation --
all this form a bright-shining, cloud-like pavilion,
and may it pervade the whole universe, and thus do
homage to the countless Buddhas, Dharma, and Sanghas,
in all of the ten directions.

Mantra of the incense offering:
Om Ba A Ra To Bi Ya Hum
Om Ba A Ra To Bi Ya Hum
Om Ba A Ra To Bi Ya Hum

We pay homage to the teacher
of the three worlds, the loving father of all creatures,
to him who is our original teacher, Shakyamuni Buddha.
We pay homage to the eternally existent
assembly of all the Buddhas, in all the ten directions
of the past, of the present, and of the future,
as countless as the lands and seas of Lord Indra's net.
We pay homage to all the dharmas,
eternally existent, in all the ten directions,
of the past, of the present, and of the future,
as countless as the lands and the seas in Lord Indra's net.
We pay homage to:
Manjushri, Bodhisattva of great wisdom;
Samantabhadra, Bodhisattva of great action;
the greatly compassionate Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva,
and the Lord of many vows, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.
We pay homage to the countless
compassionate and love-filled holy sanghas, and most
especially do we commemorate thosewho have received
personally the Lord Buddha's injunction on
Mount Gridhakuta - the ten major disciples, the sixteen
holy ones, the five hundred holy ones, and all of the
one thousand two hundred great arhats.
We pay homage to those great patriarchs
and teachers who have come from the west to the east,
and those who have come to the Korean shores,
and who have transmitted the lamp of the Dharma
throughout the generations; so too do we pay homage
to our tradition's masters, recognized
throughout the ages, and to the various numberless
spiritual teachers and friends.
We pay homage to all the
congregations of the Sangha, eternally existent,
in all the ten directions,
of the past, of the present, and of the future,
as countless as the lands and seas in Lord Indra's net.
We but earnestly desire that the inexhaustible three
precious ones will most lovingly and compassionately
receive our devotions, and that they shall empower us
spiritually; we further most earnestly desire that,
together with all creatures in the universe,
we attain to the Buddha way.

The Four Great Vows:
1. Sentient beings are numberless. We vow to save them all.
2. Delusions are endless. We vow to cut through them all.
3. The teachings are infinite. We vow to learn them all.
4. The Buddha Way is inconceivable. We vow to attain it.
