- T. ''dkon mchog gsum''), or Three Jewels, … T. ''dkon mchog gsum''), or Three Jewels, constitute the core objects of Buddhist refuge: the Buddha (the enlightened teacher), the Dharma (the path and teachings), and the Saṅgha (the community of noble beings). They are termed "jewels" (Skt. ''ratna'') because, like wish-fulfilling gems, they are rare, precious, and possess the power to provide protection from the sufferings of ''saṃsāra''. The Tibetan translation ''dkon mchog'' ("rare-supreme") is a semantic rendering that emphasizes these qualities rather than a phonetic transcription of ''ratna''. The refuge formula in Sanskrit is: ''Buddhaṃ śaraṇaṃ gacchāmi. Dharmaṃ śaraṇaṃ gacchāmi. Saṃghaṃ śaraṇaṃ gacchāmi.'' ("I go to the Buddha for refuge. I go to the Dharma for refuge. I go to the Saṅgha for refuge.") The Tibetan equivalent is: སངས་རྒྱས་ལ་སྐྱབས་སུ་མཆིའོ། །ཆོས་ལ་སྐྱབས་སུ་མཆིའོ། །དགེ་འདུན་ལ་སྐྱབས་སུ་མཆིའོ། (''sangs rgyas la skyabs su mchi'o / chos la skyabs su mchi'o / dge 'dun la skyabs su mchi'o''). mchi'o / dge 'dun la skyabs su mchi'o''). +
