\nThe main purpose of this article is to explain the true meaning of “Maha Praj\u00f1\u0101 Paramita”, in accordance with “The Altar Sutra of Sixth Patriarch, Chapter 2 On Praj\u00f1\u0101”. ” Praj\u00f1\u0101 ” is the most important terminology of the Buddhist scriptures.

\nHaving taken his seat and asked the assembly to purify their mind collectively, and to recite the \u2018Maha Praj\u00f1\u0101 Paramita\u2019 Sutra, the Partriarch then gave the following address:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\nThe Wisdom of Enlightenment is inherent in every one of us. It is because of the delusion under which our mind works that we fail to realize it ourselves, and that we have to seek the advice and the guidance of enlightened ones before we can know our own Essence of Mind.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\nThose who recite the word \u2018Praj\u00f1\u0101\u2019 all day long, do not seem to understand that Praj\u00f1\u0101 is inherent in their own true nature. It is like “mere talking about food will not appease hunger”, and this is exactly the case with these people.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\nWe might talk about Sunyata (\u7a7a, the Void) for myriads of kalpas (\u842c\u52ab), but just talking alone will not enable us to realize the Essence of Mind (\u898b\u6027). This serves no purpose in the end.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\nWhat we have to do is to put it into practice with our mind; whether we recite it or not does not matter. Mere reciting it without mental practice may be likened to a phantasm, a magical delusion, a flash of lightning or a dewdrop.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\nOn the other hand, if we do both, then our mind will be in accord with what we repeat orally. Our true nature is Buddha. Aside from this Buddha nature, there is no other Buddha.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n“P\u0101ramit\u0101” has two meanings: 1. thing has already been done, and it has reached a satisfactory situation; 2. things are being processed, and it is moving towards a satisfactory situation.

Praj\u00f1\u0101 is the most important, because the other five ways or methods need to be guided by wisdom. “The Great Perfection of Wisdom Treatise” said that: “The former five redemptions are blind, and the Praj\u00f1\u0101 is the guide.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

\nThe illimitable Void (\u7121\u908a\u865b\u7a7a) of the universe is capable of holding myriads of things of various shape and form (\u842c\u6cd5), such as the sun, the moon, stars, mountains, rivers, men, Dharmas pertaining to goodness or badness, deva planes, hells, great oceans, and all the mountains of the Mahameru (Meru or Sumeru, \u9808\u5f4c\u5c71). Space takes in all of these, and so does the voidness of our nature.<\/strong><\/p>\n

We say that “the Essence of Mind” (\u81ea\u6027) is great (\u5927), because it embraces all things, since all things are within our nature. When we see the goodness or the badness of other people, we are not attached to it; so that our attitude of mind is as void as space. In this way, we say our mind is great.

\nThe Maha Praj\u00f1\u0101 Paramita is the most exalted, the supreme, and the foremost. It neither stays, nor goes, nor comes. By means of it, Buddhas of the past, the present, and the future generations attain Buddhahood. We should use this great wisdom to break up the five Skandhas (\u4e94\u860a) .<\/strong>
\nFollowing such practice ensures the attainment of Buddhahood. The three poisonous elements (greed, hatred and illusion) will then be turned into Precepts, Samadhi, and Praj\u00f1\u0101.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\nThe mind should be framed in such a way that it will be independent of external or internal objects, at liberty to come or go, free from attachment and thoroughly enlightened without the least beclouding. He who is able to do this is of the same standard required by the Sutras of the Praj\u00f1\u0101 School.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\nWithout enlightenment, there would be no difference between a Buddha and ordinary living beings; while a gleam of enlightenment is enough to make any living being the equal of a Buddha. <\/strong>Since all Dharmas are immanent in our mind, there is no reason why we should not realize intuitively the real nature of Tathata (\u771f\u5982\u672c\u6027).<\/strong><\/p>\n
