Triratna ceremonies in Pali

By lokabandhu on Mon, 28 Oct, 2013 - 20:57
Here’s an unusual peice of translation work: three well-known Triratna ceremonies ‘back-translated’ from English into Pali - translations usually being FROM the Pali! We’re delighted to present the Dedication Ceremony, the Refuges and Precepts, and the Threefold Pūja. Many thanks to Dhivan and others for preparing them; we’re hoping for the Sanskrit versions soon!

They are part of the Triratna Translations project, hosted on The Buddhist Centre Online.
