A Traditional Buddhist Grace

     

   A Buddhist Grace

  I offer this
  To the Teacher
  Higher than any other,
  The precious Buddha.
 
  I offer this
  To the protection
  Higher than any other,
  The precious Dharma.
 
  I offer this
  To the guides
  Higher than any other,
  The precious Sangha.
 
  I offer this
  To the places of refuge,
  To the Three Jewels,
  Rare and supreme.
