___________________________

The Bodhisattva of Great Compassion
from the deep practice of the Perfection of Wisdom perceived
the emptiness of all five skandas and delivered all
beings from their suffering.

O, Shariputra, form is no other than emptiness,
emptiness no other than form, form is emptiness,
emptiness form. The same is true of feeling, thought,
impulse and consciousness.

O, Shariputra, all dharmas are empty.
They are not born, nor annihilated.
They are not defiled nor immaculate.
They do not increase, nor decrease.
So, in emptiness, no form, no feeling, no thought, no
impulse, no consciousness.
No eye, ear, nose, tongue, body, mind;
no form, sound, smell, taste, touch, or objects of
mind,
no realm of sight, no realm of consciousness.

No ignorance, nor extinction of ignorance, no old age
and death, nor extinction of them.
No suffering, no cause of suffering, no cease from
suffering, no path to lead out of suffering, no
knowledge, no attainment, no realization, for there is
nothing to attain.

The Bodhisattva holds to nothing but
the Perfection of Wisdom, therefore the mind is clear of any
delusive hindrance.
Without hindrance, there is no fear, away from all
perverted views, one reaches final Nirvana.

All Buddhas of past, present and future, through faith
in the Perfection of Wisdom attain to the highest perfect
enlightenment.

Know then the Perfect of Wisdom is the great dharani,
the radiant peerless mantrum, the utmost supreme
mantrum, which is capable of allaying all pain. This is
true beyond all doubt.

Proclaim now the highest wisdom, the
Perfection of Wisdom.

Gone, Gone, Gone Beyond, Gone Beyond the Beyond, Awake, Hallelujah
Gone, Gone, Gone Beyond, Gone Beyond the Beyond, Awake, Hallelujah
Gone, Gone, Gone Beyond, Gone Beyond the Beyond, Awake, Hallelujah
