Let us take our refuge in that which is the immutable in the changes of existence.

Excerpt

Let us take our refuge in the Buddha, for he has found the everlasting in the transient. Let us take our refuge in that which is the immutable in the changes of existence. Let us take our refuge in the truth that is established through the enlightenment of the Buddha. Let us take our refuge in the community of those who seek the truth and endeavor to live in the truth.

✨ To meditate on today

According to the Gospel of Buddha, amid everything that changes, one can take refuge in three supports: the Buddha, the truth he discovered, and the community of those who seek to live it. Today, when something shifts or slips away from you, inwardly name what remains stable and true for you, and lean on it; then share a moment with someone who also seeks to live in truth.
