We have gone for refuge to the Blessed One, on account of the Blessed One who is our teacher, and in whose Dhamma we delight.

With these offerings we worship most highly that Blessed One, together with the true Dhamma and the Saṅgha of his disciples.

Now let us chant the preliminary passage in homage to the Awakened One, the Blessed One:
