Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Outline of Maha Prajna Paramita Sutra The Rev. Master Xuanzang translated Maha Prajnaparamita Sutra during 660-663 A.D.(commonly called Maha Prajna Paramita Sutra). According to the narration of American scholar Sally Honey Wriggins in his book Xuanzang: A Buddhist Pilgrim on the Silk Road, Westview Press, 1966, "Xuanzhang returned to China with three copies of the Mahaprajnaparamita Sutra. Xuanzang, with a team of disciple translators, commenced translating the voluminous work in 660 A.D., using all three versions to ensure the integrity of the source documentation " .( P.206 ) The Maha Prajnaparamita Sutra translated by Xuanzang, is composed of 600 volumes, 4 places and 16 assemblies, 200,000 verses all together. Assembly one consist of total 132,600 verses, 79 chapters, 400 volumes. The first book of 100,000-verses' Satasahasrika Prajnaparamita mentioned above by Dharma Master Dongchu is not completely the same as Assembly I of this 400 volumes newly translated by Xuanzang. After Xuanzang completed translation of Maha Prajnaparamita Sutra in 664 A.D., he said, "This sutra is the foundation for governing a country and a great treasure for the human and heaven beings." Afterwards, Master went on to translate and spread the basic thoughts, sutras and shastras of Dharma Nature School. Three Shastra, Tiantai and Chan Sect in China, which belong to the School of Non being (Emptiness), are all derived from Prajna thoughts; Consciousness Only, Huayan and Tantra sects, which belong to the School of Being, are derived partly from Prajna thoughts and partly from Yogachara ideas. The compiler of this "Digest of Maha Prajna Paramita Sutra " is Victor Chiang who is the founder of Buddhist Tripitaka Foundation, a researcher at Dept. of Religious Studies of Peking University(2008) and visiting professor at China Min Zhu University(2008) .

This English translation appears as a set of thirty hardbound volumes, with twenty fascicles in each volume. A translator's introduction and an extensive glossary of terms are included in volume 1. The Great Prajna Paramita Sutra is important not only because of its extensive teaching but also because it demonstrates what the great bodhisattva, the great bodhisattva path of cultivation, and the great bodhisattva vehicle are. It also indicates how one should cultivate and learn to become a bodhisattvam -- and eventually a Buddha – transcending self-interest to reach a state of emptiness, selflessness, and nonattachment. This sutra depicts, manifests, and elaborates an entire learning process leading to Buddhahood. Regardless of where you are on the path to enlightenment, you will be nourished by the parables and dialogues within.

Download or read book Prajna Paramita Sutra in 32 Chapters written by Sylvain Chamberlain-Nyudo and published by . This book was released on 2016-11-25 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a reprint of a full compilation of Chinese translated Sanskrit and Buddhist hybrid texts written on the Perfection of Wisdom teachings known as the Prajna-Paramita Sutra and published in many versions from 300 lines to 100,000 lines and many versions in between. I believe this to be the most complete version, although the reader is to be aware that the central teaching in all versions is the same. I find it is more clearly understood with the typical excess of information in the format of the ancient teachings from India, which in this case, provide that the central message is not in fact, on emptiness, but on the perception of "bodies". This follows the Buddhas meditation instruction in the Satipatthana Sutta to calm or quell the "formations" of the body. It is in the deep understanding of the void of quiescent energy and the Amala consciousness that we can grasp the formations that lead to the false duality presented in samsara.
