Going for refuge

,

We make the determination and then the promise to go for refuge, which means applying effort to receive Buddha’s blessings. Why do we go for refuge? To permanently liberate ourselves and others from suffering. Temporary liberation is not good enough. We need it for countless future lives.

More information on this subject can be found in the books The Mirror of Dharma and Modern Buddhism.
