The Heart Sutra -- 般若波罗蜜多心经


般若波罗蜜多心经, originally uploaded by Wang HL.



观自在菩萨,行深般若波罗蜜多时,照见五蕴皆空,度一切苦厄。

舍利子,色不异空,空不异色。色即是空,空即是色。

受、想、行、识,亦复如是。

舍利子,是诸法空相,不生不灭,不垢不净,不增不减。

是故空中无色,无受、想、行、识;无眼、耳、鼻、舌、身、意;无色、声、香、味、触、法;无眼界,乃至无意识界;无无明,亦无无明尽,乃至无老死,亦无老死尽;无苦、集、灭、道;无智亦无得。

以无所得故,菩提萨埵,依般若波罗蜜多故,心无挂碍。

无挂碍故,无有恐怖,远离颠倒梦想,究竟涅槃。

三世诸佛,依般若波罗蜜多故,得阿耨多罗三藐三菩提。

故知般若波罗蜜多,是大神咒,是大明咒,是无上咒,是无等等咒,能除一切苦,真实不虚。

故说般若波罗蜜多咒,即说咒曰:

揭谛揭谛,波罗揭谛,波罗僧揭谛,菩提萨婆诃。

All Being Are Equal


Cambodian Monks (Color), originally uploaded by WayneMethod.



Gotama Buddha teaching is "All Beings Are Equal".

However, you see the robe of the Monk's they are differentiated by the color, to show that their status.

That is why Buddha foresees that 2,500 - 3,000 years after his enlightenment there would be no more division between lay people & monk's or Nan's!!
