The Precious Three Jewels

自皈依佛，當願眾生，體解大道，發無上心。

自皈依法，當願眾生，深入經藏，智慧如海。

自皈依僧，當願眾生，統理大眾，一切無礙。

I take refuge in the Buddha, wishing for all sentient beings to

understand the great way and make the greatest vow.

I take refuge in the Dharma, wishing for all sentient beings to deeply

delve into the Sutra Pitaka, gaining an ocean of knowledge.

I take refuge in the Sangha, wishing all sentient beings to lead the

congregation in harmony, entirely without obstruction.

安忍 - 慧光師父說當你幫別人做事，一旦做累了，心裡就開始有一些抱怨的聲音出來。如果我們真實想要去利益眾生，就會承擔那些內心抱怨的聲音，勇敢地走過去。每當你走過去一次，忍的力量就又再增上一點，一次兩次三次，這力量就愈來愈強大。之後，在面對我們自己的苦惱時，心中自然就有力量去突破它。

Dedication of Merits

May the merits and virtues accrued from this work adorn the Buddha's Pure Land, repay the Four Kindnesses above, and relieve the sufferings of those in the Three Paths below.

May those who see or hear of this, bring forth the heart of understanding and compassion and, at the end of this life, be born together in the Land of Ultimate Bliss.
