The Heart Sutra of the Great Perfection of Wisdom. When Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara was practicing the profound Perfection of Wisdom, he clearly perceived that all five aggregates are empty, and thus transcended all suffering and distress. Shariputra, form is not different from emptiness, emptiness is not different from form. Form itself is emptiness, emptiness itself is form. The same is true of sensation, perception, mental formation, and consciousness. Shariputra, all phenomena are marked by emptiness — they neither arise nor cease, are neither defiled nor pure, neither increase nor decrease. Therefore, in emptiness there is no form, no sensation, perception, mental formation, or consciousness. No eye, ear, nose, tongue, body, or mind. No form, sound, smell, taste, touch, or mental object. No realm of the eye, up to and including no realm of mind-consciousness. No ignorance, and no ending of ignorance, up to no old age and death, and no ending of old age and death. No suffering, no cause of suffering, no cessation, no path. No wisdom and no attainment, because there is nothing to attain. The Bodhisattva, through reliance on the Perfection of Wisdom, has no obstruction in the mind. Because there is no obstruction, there is no fear. Far beyond delusion and confused thinking, the Bodhisattva reaches ultimate nirvana. All Buddhas of the three times, through reliance on the Perfection of Wisdom, attain supreme and perfect enlightenment.
