The throne of truth is righteousness; and love and justice and good-will are its ornaments.10
Righteousness is the place in which truth dwells, and here in the hearts of mankind aspiring after the realization of righteousness, there is ample space for a rich and ever richer revelation of the truth.11
This is the Gospel of the Blessed One. This is the revelation of the Englightened One. This is the bequest of the Holy One.12
Those who accept the truth and have faith .in the truth, take refuge in the Buddha, the Dharma, and the Sangha.13
Receive us, O Buddha, as thy disciples from this day hence, so long as our life lasts.14
Comfort, O holy Teacher, compassionate and all-loving, the afflicted and the sorrow-laden, illumine those who go astray, and let us all gain more and more in comprehension and in holiness.15
The truth is the end and aim of all existence, and the worlds originate so that the truth may come and dwell therein.16
Those who fail to aspire for the truth have missed the purpose of life.17
Blessed is he who rests in the truth, for all things will pass away, but the truth abideth forever.18
The world is built for the truth, but false combinations of thought misrepresent the true state of things and bring forth errors.19
Errors can be fashioned as it pleases those who cherish them; therefore they are pleasant to look upon, but they are unstable and contain the seeds of dissolution.20
Truth cannot be fashioned. Truth, is one and the same; it is immutable.21
Truth is above the power of death; it is omnipresent, eternal, and most glorious.22
