The Heart of Perfect Wisdom Sutra or Heart Sutra Sanskrit: Prajñāpāramitā is a well-known Mahāyāna Buddhist sutra that is very popular among Mahayana Buddhists both for its brevity and depth of meaning.

Geshe Pema Tsering was unable to teach this text at the end of last year due to other commitments followed by an illness. We apologise to the students for any inconvenience in late cancellations.

The sutra describes the experience of liberation of the bodhisattva of compassion, Avalokiteśvara, as a result of insight gained while engaged in deep meditation to awaken the faculty of prajña (wisdom). The insight refers to the fundamental emptiness of all phenomena, the five aggregates of human existence — form, feeling, volitions, perceptions, and consciousness. Geshe Pema Tsering will help us to understand the meaning of this beautiful and most profound text over four weeks. Suitable for new students

Facility Fee: $40 waged, $32 concession, $28 members for the 4 weeks.
