MAHA PRAJNA PARAMITA HEART SUTRA
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, doing deep Prajna Paramita,
clearly saw emptiness of all the five conditions, thus completely relieving misfortune and pain.
O Shariputra, form is no other than emptiness; emptiness no other than form.
Form is exactly emptiness, emptiness exactly form.
Sensation, conception, discrimination, awareness are likewise like this.
O Shariputra, all dharmas are forms of emptiness;
Not born, not destroyed; not stained, not pure; without loss, without gain.
So in emptiness there is no form, no sensation, conception, discrimination, awareness;
No eye, ear, nose, tongue, body, mind; No color, sound, smell, taste, touch, phenomena;
No realm of sight, no realm of consciousness; No ignorance, and no end to ignorance;
No old age and death, and no end to old age and death;
No suffering, no cause of suffering, no extinguishing, no path; no wisdom, and no gain.
No gain and thus the Bodhisattva lives Prajna Paramita, with no hindrance in the mind;
No hindrance, therefore no fear.
Far beyond deluded thoughts, this is Nirvana.
All past, present, and future Buddhas live Prajna Paramita and therefore attain anuttara- samyak-sambodhi.
Therefore know, Prajna Paramita is the great mantra, the vivid mantra, the best mantra, the unsurpassable mantra.
It completely clears all pain - this is the truth not a lie.
So set forth the Prajna Paramita Mantra.
Set forth this mantra and say:
Gate! Gate! Paragate Parasamgate! Bodhi Svaha! Prajna Heart Sutra.
