般若心經

　　The Heart Of Prajna Paramita Sutra

　　[唐]玄奘法師譯

　　觀自在菩薩，行深般若波羅蜜多時，照見五蘊皆空，度一切苦厄。

　　When Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara was practicing the profound Prajna Paramita, he illuminated the Five Skandhas and saw that they are all empty, and he crossed beyond all suffering and difficulty.

　　舍利子,色不異空,空不異色；色即是空,空即是色。受、想、行、識，亦複如是。

　　Shariputra, form does not differ from emptiness; emptiness does not differ from form. Form itself is emptiness; emptiness itself is form. So too are feeling, cognition, formation, and consciousness.

　　舍利子，是諸法空相：不生、不滅；不垢、不淨；不增、不減。

　　Shariputra, all Dharmas are empty of characteristics. They are not produced, not destroyed, not defiled, not pure; and they neither increase nor diminish.

　　是故空中無色。無受、想、行、識；無眼、耳、鼻、舌、身、意；

　　Therefore, in emptiness there is no form, feeling, cognition, formation, or consciousness; no eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, or mind;

　　無色、香、聲、味、觸、法。無眼界，乃至無意識界；

　　no sights, sounds, smells, tastes, objects of touch, or Dharmas; no field of the eyes up to and including no field of mind consciousness;

　　無無明，亦無無明盡；乃至無老死，亦無老死盡。無苦、集、滅、道。

　　and no ignorance or ending of ignorance, up to and including no old age and death or ending of old age and death. There is no suffering, no accumulating, no extinction, and no Way, and no understanding and no attaining.

　　無智亦無得，以無所得故。菩提薩捶，依般若波羅蜜多故。心無挂礙，無挂礙故。無有恐怖，遠離顛倒夢想、究竟涅磐。

　　Because nothing is attained, the Bodhisattva through reliance on Prajna Paramita is unimpeded in his mind. Because there is no impediment, he is not afraid, and he leaves distorted dream-thinking far behind. Ultimately Nirvana!

　　叁世諸佛，依般若波羅蜜多故。得阿耨多羅叁藐叁菩提。

　　All Buddhas of the three periods of time attain Anuttara-samyak-sambodhi through reliance on Prajna Paramita.

　　故知般若波羅蜜多，是大神咒，是大明咒，是無上咒，是無等等咒。能除一切苦，真實不虛。故說般若波羅蜜多咒，即說咒曰：

　　Therefore know that Prajna Paramita is a Great Spiritual Mantra, a Great Bright Mantra, a Supreme Mantra, an Unequalled Mantra. It can remove all suffering; it is genuine and not false. That is why the Mantra of Prajna Paramita was spoken. Recite it like this:

　　“揭谛！揭谛！波羅揭谛！波羅僧揭谛！菩提薩婆诃！”

　　Gaté Gaté Paragaté Parasamgaté

　　Bodhi Svaha!
