Prajna Paramita Hrdaya Sutra

About this Sutra

Wisdom (Prajna) derives from Concentration (Paramita) in order to attain "enlightenment".

Kuan-sai-yin Po Shat (a Bodhisattva) spent countless years diligently cultivating self-realization. He realized that everything is not forever but is empty and illusory; why do we have to become attached to such temporary things?

Both Bodhisattvas and Buddhas follow this method to attain enlightenment.

At the end of this Sutra is the Mantra.
