“Peace Through Kindness" cover

The Heart Sūtra, bhagavatī-prajñāpāramitā-hṛdaya in Sanskrit or bcom ldan ‘das ma shes rab kyi pha rol tu phyin pa’i snying po in Tibetan, belongs to the class of Mahāyāna sūtras called the “Perfection of Wisdom” (Prajñāpāramitā). It is one of the shortest texts and condenses the entire wisdom of all the prajñāpāramitā sūtras. The teachings of the Heart Sūtra are deep and subtle as they express the profound view of the emptiness of all phenomena, and thus carry a lot of blessings.
