心经全文原文英汉对照版

观音心经是佛经中字数最少的一部经典著作，因其字数最少、含义最深、传奇最多、影响最大。所以，这件艺术品作者初山倾注了极大精力和虔诚之心来创作，怀禅（详见怀禅八大刻）先生也亲自微刻了玄奘译本心经全文。
心经整段话的概略意思是“透过心量广大的通达智慧，而超脱世俗困苦的根本途径”。
经文以“观自在菩萨”开头，以“菩提萨婆诃”结尾（萨婆诃本为祝颂语，亦有观自在的意思，与经文开头相呼应）。 “舍利子（舍利弗）”是心经全文关键字词之一。
底部以微画雕方式隐约呈现出大千世界，我们能从中感知到什么？
感知是因人而异的，感知的意义范围很广，主要意思是客观事物通过感觉器官在人脑中的直接反映。而感知能力则是说通过感觉器官感觉某样不可视或者肉眼无法直接观察的物体，并能通过感觉描绘出其具体形状或者运动状态的一种超能力。

　THE HEART OF PRAJNA PARAMITA SUTRA

                《摩诃般若波罗密多心经》

　　【英】When Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara was practicing the profound Prajna Paramita,he illuminated the Five Skandhas and saw that they are all empty,and he crossed beyond all suffering and difficulty.

　　【汉】观自在菩萨。行深般若波罗蜜多时。照见五蕴皆空。度一切苦厄。

　　　【英】Shariputra,form does not differ from emptiness;emptiness does not differ from form.Form itself is emptiness;emptiness itself is form.So too are feeling,cognition,formation,and consciousness.

　　【汉】舍利子。色不异空。空不异色。色即是空。空即是色。受想行识。亦复如是。

　　　【英】Shariputra,all Dharmas are empty of characteristics.They are not produced,not destroyed,not defiled, not pure; and they neither increase nor diminish.Therefore, in emptiness there is no form,feeling, cognition,formation,or consciousness;no eyes,ears,nose,tongue,body,or mind;no sights,sounds,smells,tastes,objects of touch,or Dharmas;no field of the eyes up to and including no field of mind consciousness;and no ignorance or ending of ignorance, up to and including no old age and death or ending of old age and death. There is no suffering, no accumulating, no extinction, and no Way, and no understanding and no attaining,because nothing is attained.

　　【汉】舍利子。是诸法空相。不生不灭。不垢不净。不增不减。是故空中无色。无受想行识。无眼耳鼻舌身意。无色声香味触法。无眼界。乃至无意识界。无无明。亦无无明尽。乃至无老死。亦无老死尽。无苦集灭道。无智亦无得。以无所得故。

　　　【英】The Bodhisattva through reliance on Prajna Paramita is unimpeded in his mind.Because there is no impediment,he is not afraid,and he leaves distorted dream-thinking far behind.Ultimately Nirvana!All Buddhas of the three periods of time attain Anuttara-samyak-sambodhi through reliance on Prajna Paramita.Therefore know that Prajna Paramita is a Great Spiritual Mantra,a Great Bright Mantra,a Supreme Mantra,an Unequalled Mantra.It can remove all suffering;it is genuine and not false.That is why the Mantra of Prajna Paramita was spoken.Recite it like this:

　　【汉】菩提萨埵。依般若波罗蜜多故。心无罣碍。无罣碍故。无有恐怖。远离颠倒梦想。究竟涅盘。三世诸佛。依般若波罗蜜多故。得阿耨多罗三藐三菩提。故知般若波罗蜜多。是大神咒。是大明咒。是无上咒。是无等等咒。能除一切苦。真实不虚。故说般若波罗蜜多咒。即说咒曰。

　　　【英】Gaté Gaté Paragaté Parasamgaté Bodhi Svaha!

　　【汉】揭谛揭谛。波罗揭谛。波罗僧揭谛。菩提萨婆诃。
