About the Heart Sutra
The Heart Sutra, or the Perfection of Wisdom Sutra, is one of the most well known of Buddhist scriptures. Although short, it is rich in meaning and history as it contains the essential concepts of Buddhist beliefs and philosophies. In essence, it is a Dharma teaching on the wrong perception of existence which causes samsara:
- Due to ignorance, sentient beings commit misdeeds of greed and hatred, and are unable to be liberated from the cyclic existence of samsara
- And to gain liberation, one must contemplate on emptiness.
This teaching on the true nature of reality was given by Avalokiteshvara on Vulture's Peak in response to Arhat Shariputra's request. People who are afflicted by spirit disturbances are sometimes advised to recite the Heart Sutra as it is also very beneficial to the spirits who come looking for help.
