The Heart Sutra (Sanskrit: प्रज्ञापारमिताहृदय Prajñāpāramitāhṛdaya; Chinese: 心經) is a revered and respected text in Mahayana Buddhism. Its Sanskrit name, Prajñāpāramitāhṛdaya, means "Heart of Prajnaparamita." The sutra is known for the famous statement, "Form is emptiness, emptiness is volition," which introduces the concept of emptiness.

Of all Buddhist texts, the Heart Sutra is one of the most revered and treasured. Despite its brief length, this insightful text contains profound meaning and rich historical context, encompassing fundamental concepts of Buddhist belief and philosophy. Wherever this remarkable Heart Sutra is placed, it fosters an atmosphere of blessing, love, peace, and compassion. It also offers protection and happiness. This sutra delves deeply into the core Buddhist teaching of emptiness. The realization of emptiness is not a passive state of nothingness. Instead, it emphasizes the importance of detachment from all attachment, especially to one's own perceptions, judgments, feelings, desires, and so on.

The Heart Sutra is profound and far-reaching, making it difficult to fully comprehend. However, through continued observation and practice, one can always gain a deeper understanding.
