Heart Sutra in Sanskrit

Post by kirtu »

Kirt's Tibetan Translation Notes

"Even if you practice only for an hour a day with faith and inspiration, good qualities will steadily increase. Regular practice makes it easy to transform your mind. From seeing only relative truth, you will eventually reach a profound certainty in the meaning of absolute truth."
Kyabje Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche.

"Only you can make your mind beautiful."
HH Chetsang Rinpoche

"Most all-knowing Mañjuśrī, ...
Please illuminate the radiant wisdom spirit
Of my precious Buddha nature."
HH Thinley Norbu Rinpoche

i want to sing it it is so beautyfull to imagine it :_)

seems the same as this



but the lirics in the legends doesn't correspond, does it?
true dharma is inexpressible.

The bodhisattva nourishes from bodhicitta, through whatever method the Buddha has given him. Oh joy.

The first one is the standard "short" version used in East Asia and Japan and comes from Xuanzang. The Sanskrit for this version is identical to this (or look at any Sanskrit version of the Zen version of the Heart Sutra, although there actually *ARE* some differences in some Sanskrit versions but all the Zen/Ch'an/Seon versions are the same in Sanskrit).

This has the Xuanzang version embedded in it but may be a reconstruction in Sanskrit of the Tibetan version which has a preamble and a summary by the Buddha but I'd have to go through the Sanskrit to make sure. I'm sure that someone who knows Sanskrit will be able to determine the version precisely before I will be able to get to it though.
