An okāsa (Pali; Burmese language: ဩကာသ, Awgatha), sometimes known as the common Buddhist prayer, is a formulaic Theravada prayer that is recited to initiate acts of Buddhist devotion, including obeisance to the Gautama Buddha and Buddhist monks and the Libation. The term okāsa literally means "permission" in Pali, and is used to request permission to pay homage, seek forgiveness of any intentional and unintentional offenses, and precedes the undertaking of the Five Precepts.
