Li Shutong Complete Works 01
About This Novel
The Three Returns are those who take refuge in the Three Jewels of Buddhism, Dharma, and Sangha. The meaning of the Three Jewels is very broad, and there are various differences. Now I will briefly mention the ones that are easiest for ordinary people to understand. Buddhas, such as Sakyamuni Buddha, Amitabha and other Buddhas. Dharma refers to the Dharma spoken by the Buddha; or the Dharma spoken by Bodhisattvas and others according to the will of the Buddha. That is to say, the Tripitaka of Mahayana and Vinaya sutras circulated today. Monks, such as Bodhisattvas, Sravakas, saints and sages, all the way down to those who just shave their heads and wear cassocks. Refuge means turning to dependence. Those who take refuge in the Three Jewels also beg for the Three Jewels to save them. "The Sutra of Repaying Benefit to the Buddha of Great Convenience" says: For example, people are guilty of this.
