The Heart Sutra
༄༅། འཕགས་པ་དཀོན་མཆོག་གསུམ་ལ་ཕྱག་འཚལ་ལོ། འདི་སྐད་བདག་གིས་ཐོས་པ་དུས་གཅིག་ན།
Pak pa kön chok sum la chag tsal lo Di ké dak gi tö pa dü chik na
Homage to the Perfection of Wisdom, the Bhagavatī. Thus have I heard at one time:
བཅོམ་ལྡན་འདས་རྒྱལ་པོའི་ཁབ། བྱ་རྒོད་ཕུང་པོའི་རི་ལ། དགེ་སློང་གི་དགེ་འདུན་ཆེན་པོ་དང་།
Chom den dé gyel pö khap Ja gö pung pö ri la Gé long gi gen dün chen po dang
The Blessed Buddha was dwelling in Rajagriha on Vulture Peak with a great community of
བྱང་ཆུབ་སེམས་དཔའི་དགེ་འདུན་ཆེན་པོ་དང་། ཐབས་ཅིག་ཏུ་བཞུགས་ཏེ། དེའི་ཚེ་བཅོམ་ལྡན་
Jang chup sem pé gen dün chen po dang Tap chik tu zhuk té Dé tsé chom den dé
monastics and a great community of bodhisattvas. At that time, the Bhagavān entered into
འདས་ཟབ་མོ་སྣང་བ་ཞེས་བྱ་བའི་ཆོས་ཀྱི་རྣམ་གྲངས་ཀྱི་ཏིང་ངེ་འཛིན་ལ་སྙོམས་པར་་བཞུགས་སོ།
zap mo nang wa zhé ja wé chö kyi nam drang kyi ting ngé dzin la nyom par zhuk so
concentrated meditation on the enumerations of phenomena called “Perception of the Profound.”
ཡང་དེའི་ཚེ་བྱང་ཆུབ་སེམས་དཔའ་སེམས་དཔའ་ཆེན་པོ་འཕགས་པ་སྤྱན་རས་གཟིགས་དབང་ཕྱུག་
Yang dé tsé jang chup sem pa sem pa chen po pak pa chen ré zik wang chuk
Also at that time, the Bodhisattva, the Great Being, the Superior, Avalokiteshvara
ཤེས་རབ་ཀྱི་ཕ་རོལ་ཏུ་ཕྱིན་པ་ཟབ་མོའི་སྤྱོད་པ་ཉིད་ལ་རྣམ་པར་ལྟ་ཞིང་ཕུང་པོ་ལྔ་པོ་དེ་དག་ལ་
shé rap kyi pa röl tu chin pa zap mö chö pa nyi la nam par ta zhing pung po nga po dé dak
looked at the practice of the profound perfection of wisdom and saw those five aggregates also
རང་བཞིན་གྱིས་སྟོང་པར་རྣམ་པར་ལྟའོ། དེ་ནས་སངས་རྒྱས་ཀྱི་མཐུས་ཚེ་དང་ལྡན་པ་ཤཱ་རིའི་བུས་

as empty of inherent existence. Then, through the Buddha’s power, Venerable Shāriputra
བྱང་ཆུབ་སེམས་དཔའ་སེམས་དཔའ་ཆེན་པོ་འཕགས་པ་སྤྱན་རས་གཟིགས་དབང་ཕྱུག་ལ་འདི་སྐད་

said to the Bodhisattva, the Great Being, the Superior Avalokiteshvara, “How should

who wish to engage in the practice of the profound perfection of wisdom should view
ཤེས་རབ་ཀྱི་ཕ་རོལ་ཏུ་ཕྱིན་པ་ཟབ་མོའི་སྤྱོད་པ་སྤྱད་པར་འདོད་པ་དེས་འདི་ལྟར་རྣམ་པར་བལྟ་བར་

as follows: They should correctly and thoroughly view even these five aggregates as

empty of inherent existence. Form is empty. Emptiness is form. Form is not other than
གཟུགས་སྟོང་པའོ། སྟོང་པ་ཉིད་ཀྱང་གཟུགས་སོ། གཟུགས་ལས་ཀྱང་སྟོང་པ་ཉིད་གཞན་མ་ཡིན་ནོ།
Zuk tong pa’o Tong pa nyi kyang zuk so Zuk lé kyang tong pa nyi zhen ma yin no
Emptiness. Emptiness is not other than form. Just so, feelings, discriminations,
སྟོང་པ་ཉིད་ལས་ཀྱང་གཟུགས་གཞན་མ་ཡིན་ནོ། དེ་བཞིན་དུ་ཚོར་བ་དང་། འདུ་ཤེས་དང་། འདུ་
Tong pa nyi lé kyang zuk zhen ma yin no Dé zhin du tsor wa dang Du shé dang Du
compositional factors, and consciousness are empty. Shariputra, since this is so, all
བྱེད་དང་། རྣམ་པར་ཤེས་པ་རྣམས་སྟོང་པའོ། །བཙུན་པ་ཤཱ་རིའི་བུ་དེ་ལྟ་བས་ན་ཆོས་ཐམས་ཅད་ནི་
jé dang Nam par shé pa nam tong pa’o Tsün pa sha ri bu dé ta wé na chö tam ché ni
phenomena are empty—without characteristics, not produced, not ceasing, not defiled,
སྟོང་པ་ཉིད་དེ། མཚན་ཉདི ་མེད་པ། མ་སྐྱེས་པ། མ་འགགས་པ། དྲི་མ་མེད་པ། དྲི་མ་དང་བྲལ་བ་
tong pa nyi dé Tsen nyi mé pa Ma kyé pa Ma gak pa Dri ma mé pa Dri ma dang drel wa
not separated from defilements, not decreasing, not increasing. Therefore, Shāriputra, in
མེད་པ། བྲི་བ་མེད་པ། གང་བ་མེད་པའོ། །ཤཱ་རིའི་བུ་དེ་ལྟ་བས་ན། སྟོང་པ་ཉིད་ལ་གཟུགས་མེད།
mé pa Dri wa mé pa Gang wa mé pa’o Sha ri bu dé ta wé na Tong pa nyi la zuk mé
emptiness there is no form, no feelings, no discrimination, no compositional factors, no

of aging or death. Similarly, there is no suffering, origination, cessation, or path; no exalted

Yé shé mé Top pa mé Ma top pa yang mé do Sha ri bu dé ta wé na jang chup sem pa
wisdom, no attainment and also no non-attainment. Thus, Shariputra, because bodhisattvas have
རྣམས་ཐོབ་པ་མེད་པའི་ཕྱིར། ཤེས་རབ་ཀྱི་ཕ་རོལ་ཏུ་ཕྱིན་པ་ལ་བརྟེན་ཅིང་གནས་ཏེ། སེམས་ལ་
nam top pa mé pé chir Shé rap kyi pa röl tu chin pa la ten ching né té Sem la

སྒྲིབ་པ་མེད་པས་སྐྲག་པ་མེད་དེ། ཕྱིན་ཅི་ལོག་ལས་ཤིན་ཏུ་འདས་ནས་མྱ་ངན་ལས་འདས་པའི་མཐར་
drip pa mé pé trak pa mé dé Chin chi lok lé shin tu dé né nya ngen lé dé pé tar
without obstruction and without fear. Having passed beyond error, they go to the finality of nirvana.
ཕྱིན་ཏོ། དུས་གསུམ་དུ་རྣམ་པར་བཞུགས་པའི་སངས་རྒྱས་ཐམས་ཅད་ཀྱང་ཤེས་རབ་ཀྱི་ཕ་རོལ་

Moreover all the Buddhas abiding in the three times have directly and perfectly awakened

Sha ri bu jang chup sem pa sem pa chen pö Dé tar shé rap kyi pa röl tu chin pa

This prayer was written and offered by Venerable Ngawang Lodro Rinchen, abbot of Nalendra monastery in
Phenpo, Tibet. Through the merit accumulated, may all sentient beings have long life without any hindrance
and ultimately gain Enlightenment.
This version of His Holiness Sakya Trizin's long life prayer was translated by Lama Ngawang Samten and
put into verse in accordance to the Tibetan chanting metrical form of the prayer by Stephen Ang. This work
was offered to His Holiness Sakya Trizin on 22 June 1987 in deep gratitude for the bestowing of the Lam
DreTsok Shed teachings (by His Holiness) at Sakya College, Rajpur. It was formally chanted during the final
assembly after the long life puja offering to His Holiness at the conclusion of the Lam Dre teachings on 3
July 1987. Revisions are most welcome but care must be taken when replacing any of the English words so
as to maintain the metrical chanting accents.
