Show Notes
For over 2,500 years, in every form of Buddhism, you formally become a Buddhist by stating, "I take refuge in the Buddha, I take refuge in the Dharma, I take refuge in the Sangha." Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha are therefore known collectively as the Three Refuges, Three Treasures, Three Jewels, or the Triple Gem. This episode covers what the Three Treasures are and what it means (and doesn't mean) to take refuge in them.
