First
Il

I chant the sacred name of the enlightened one,
NamoBuddhaya, aspiring for my body and mind to become one with the body and mind of Buddha.” [One]

Second
Sam

Three times a day, I recite the sacred invocation “NamoBuddhaya,” while reading the scriptures of Buddha[念佛].
With a tranquil mind, I contemplate and observe myself, the objects, and the teachings[看經].
I practice the threefold training of precepts, meditation, and wisdom[冥想]. [Three]

Third
oh-gong

I realize that there is no separate inherent nature in myself and the world. Recognizing that all is interconnected and transient,
I understand Buddha’s teaching that failing to see this truth leads to suffering[悟空].
