What does Prajnaparamita mean in the Heart Sutra?

author:You and I have no intentions

Prajnaparamita generally refers to wisdom, but in fact the word wisdom is a human word, which contrasts with stupidity, stupidity and ignorance, but you cannot rely on separation to break the distinction. So Prajnaparamita is not just wisdom. It is this insight into the truth of the universe or the truth of existence, it is a state of insight into the truth. This state, we can define as Prajnaparamita.

The subjective truth of the existence of things, or I am in this state, this is what we originally have. Prajnaparamita is something we have ourselves, not something we are going to acquire, so how to strive to obtain it.

Relying on the perspective of discernment, to say that we want to achieve or achieve or return to this state, we can start from three directions: literally, contemplatively, and reality.

First of all, let's talk about the literal pranayama, the so-called various laws we see are actually literal pranayama, which are explained by words. This will be subject to certain restrictions, no matter what the language, human language and writing are also constantly enriched, constantly improving, constantly deepening and improving. Now we compare to 2000 years ago, the vocabulary is much richer.

It is easier for us humans to understand some deeper meanings than before, and in a few years, there will be more progress than it is now, and it is always changing, so the text itself has certain limitations at different stages in the present.

Looking at Prajnaparamita, this realm is much higher. Whether I implement it or not, the result is this. Then in the process, whether it is called cultivation or cultivation, or the more simplified word is called practice.

What is the ultimate truth. If pranayama is not conceived by the mind, our minds do not know what pranayama is, and we must jump out of this separate individual and no longer rely on the original habits and belief systems to perceive. In other words, the observer character is aware of every occurrence.

Prajnaparamita means that you have passed through the stage of contemplating Prajnaparamita. Of course, it is also possible to have a direct epiphany, and some people have a direct epiphany without going through this stage. What is true is what we call the universe or the world, but what is the truth of his existence? We can express it in words and words, and we can also describe it in words of knowledge, but if you want to truly realize, you can't use your mind to understand, you can't see it with your eyes, and you don't rely on the five senses of our body to decide.
