　　"All the Enlightened Beings of the past, and present, and the future too follow

　　this same perfection of wisdom, and thus bring themselves to perfect

　　enlightenment: to the matchless state of a totally enlightened Buddha.

　　"Thus are they the sacred words of the perfection of wisdom; the sacred words

　　of great knowledge; sacred words of the unsurpassable; sacred words that are

　　equal to the One beyond all equal; sacred words that put a final end to every

　　form of pain; sacred words you should know are true, for false they cannot be;

　　"And thus it is, Shari Putra, that great warrior saints must train themselves in

　　the profound perfection of wisdom."

　　With this, the Conqueror stirred himself from his deep state of meditation. He

　　turned to the great warrior, to the realized one, Loving Eyes, the lord of power,

　　All sang their praises of what the Conqueror had spoken.

　　of the Perfection of Wisdom. It was first translated from Sanskrit by the Indian

　　abbot Vimala Mitra together with a master Tibetan translator, the venerable Rinchen

　　De. It was later checked and standardized by the master translators and editors Gelo

　　and Namka, among others. The translation into English was completed by the

　　American geshe Gelong Lobsang Chunzin, Michael Roach, with the assistance of the

　　American woman with lifetime vows, Christie McNally.]
