Song of the Heart Sutra

There are many versions around, but I think this is the best one.

It's composed by Professor Huang Yo Li, a very famous music composer in Taiwan.

That's really nice of you. For you did not respond with 'Music is form and form is delusive...', like what I did to you the other day. I kind of hoping you would do that to me too. So wed be even. You are really a fast learner. BRAVO!

An Eternal Now SG

Maybe if one keeps on listening to Heart Sutra.... one might realise its essence one day... if one practices. Smile

Very true!

Do you know why the mantra of the Heart Sutra is the supreme and utmost mantra which is able to relieve all suffering?

If we chant 'Gate Gate Paragate Parasamgate Bodhi Svaha' all the time, then our mind would be like 'one mountain cannot abide two tigers'.

- Master Ken Yung

So when we are attached to something, and we cannot empty it, singing the above song or chanting the mantra would be a good practice.
