Refuge

Taking refuge is a major foundation of the buddhist path. It signifies our determination to turn away from the endless cycle of confusion and dissatisfaction that has marked our life and towards a saner, more wholesome way of living.

From this time forth until I become a Buddha, I shall keep even at the cost of my life, A mind wishing to attain complete enlightenment, To free all living beings from the fears of samsara and solitary peace.

Buddha of compassion

Quote

Buddha taught that there are countless world systems in the universe; some like our own while others are vastly different. Our own world system is composed of four 'continents' arranged in the cardinal directions, and we live in the southern continent. At the centre of this world system stands a vast, four-sided mountain. This is Mount Meru.
