1. Past deeds, and the present attitude to perfect wisdom Thereupon it occurred to Sakra, Chief of Gods: Those who come to hear of this perfection of wisdom must be people who have fulfilled their duties under the former Jinas, who have planted wholesome roots under many Buddhas, who have been taken hold of by good friends. How much more so those who take up this perfection of wisdom, bear it in mind, study, spread and explain it, and who, in addition, train in Thusness, progress to Thusness, make efforts about Thusness. They are endowed with more than trifling wholesome roots. They will be people who have honoured many Buddhas, and who have again and again questioned them. It was just this perfection of wisdom which they have heard in the past in the presence of former Tathagatas. They have planted wholesome roots under many Buddhas, (209) those sons and daughters of good family who, when just this perfection of wisdom being taught, explained and repeated, will not become cowed nor stolid, will not become cast down nor depressed, will not turn their minds away from it nor have their backs broken, will not tremble, be frightened, be terrified.

Sariputra read Sakra’s thoughts, and said: Like an irreversible Bodhisattva should one regard that person who, when just this deep perfection of wisdom is being taught and explained, has faith in it, and, trusting, firmly believing, his heart full of serene faith, raises a thought directed towards enlightenment, takes up, etc., this perfection of wisdom, trains in Thusness, progresses to Thusness, makes efforts about Thusness. For this perfection of wisdom is deep, O Lord, and therefore someone with diminutive wholesome roots, who, unwilling to ask questions, has learned nothing when face to face with the Buddhas and Lords in the past, and who has not practised in the past, cannot just here believe in this so deep perfection of wisdom. And as to those who neither believe in it nor understand it, and who decide to reject it, (210) in the past also they have rejected this deep perfection of wisdom when it was taught, and that in consequence of the inadequacy of their wholesome roots. For those who have not practised in the past cannot believe in this perfection of wisdom. When they reject it now, they have also rejected it in the past. And that is the reason why, when this deep perfection of wisdom is being taught, they have no faith, or patience, or pleasure, or desire-to-do, or vigour, or vigilance, or resolve. And in the past also they have questioned neither the Buddhas, the Lords, nor their disciples.

Sakra: Deep, O holy Sariputra, is the perfection of wisdom. It is not at all astonishing that, when it is being taught, a Bodhisattva would not believe in it, if he had not practised in the past. Sakra then said to the Lord: I pay homage, O Lord, to the perfection of wisdom! One pays homage to the cognition of the all-knowing when one pays homage to the perfection of wisdom. The Lord: So it is. For from it has come forth the all-knowledge of the Buddhas, the Lords, (211) and, conversely, the perfection of wisdom is brought about as something that has come forth from the cognition of the all-knowing. That is why one should course, stand, progress, and make efforts in this perfection of wisdom.

Sakra: How does a Bodhisattva, who courses in perfect wisdom, become one who has stood in the perfection of wisdom? How does he make efforts about the perfection of wisdom? The Lord: Well said, well said, Kausika. Well said, again, well said, Kausika, since you have decided to question the Tathagata about this matter. In that you have been inspired by the Buddha’s might. Here, Kausika, a Bodhisattva who courses in perfect wisdom does not stand in form, etc., does not stand in the notion that ‘this is form,’ and that means that he makes efforts about form, etc. He does not apply himself to the notion that ‘this is form, etc.’ Insofar as he does not apply himself to the notion that ‘this is form, etc.,’ he does not stand in the notion that ‘this is form, etc.’ (212,1) Thus he becomes one who has stood in perfect wisdom, thus he makes efforts.

Sariputra: Deep, O Lord, is the perfection of wisdom. Hard to fathom is the perfection of wisdom. Hard to grasp is the perfection of wisdom. Unlimited is the perfection of wisdom. The Lord: So it is, Sariputra. He does not stand in the notion that ‘form, etc., is deep.’ Insofar as he does not stand in this notion he makes efforts about form, etc. He does not make efforts about the notion that ‘form , etc., is deep.’ In so far as he makes no efforts about this notion he does not stand in the notion that ‘form, etc., is deep.’

2. Qualifications of a bodhisattva who obtains perfect wisdom Sariputra: In front of an irreversible Bodhisattva, of a Bodhisattva predestined to enlightenment, should the deep perfection of wisdom be taught. For he will not hesitate, not doubt, not be stupefied, not dispute it.

(213) Sakra: What would be the fault in teaching this perfection of wisdom in front of an unpredestined Bodhisattva? Sariputra: If Kausika, unpredestined, a Bodhisattva obtains this perfection of wisdom, for vision, praise, worship and hearing, and if he remains unafraid when he hears it, one can be sure that he has come from afar, has set out for long in the vehicle, and that his wholesome roots are well matured. It will not be long from now onwards until he receives the prediction to supreme enlightenment. One can be sure that that prediction will be near, and will come to him before he has passed by one, two or three Tathagatas. And, of course, he will please the Tathagatas whom he passes by, will please them permanently, and he will see to it that the vision of those Tathagatas will bear the fruit of the prediction, that it will lead him to the prediction to supreme enlightenment [itself].

Come from afar, O Lord, set out for long in the great vehicle, with wholesome roots well matured is that Bodhisattva who obtains this perfection of wisdom for vision, praise, worship and hearing. How much more so if he would not only hear it, but also take it up, (214) bear it in mind, preach, study, spread, explain and repeat it.

3. Five similes to illustrate nearness to full enlightenment Sariputra: A simile or example flashes into my mind, O Lord. Just as we can be sure that a person belonging to the vehicle of the Bodhisattvas, when he dreams that he sits on the terrace of enlightenment, is actually near to supreme enlightenment; just so we can be sure that a person who fulfils the conditions just outlined has come from afar, has set out for long in the vehicle of the Bodhisattvas, and is near his prediction to enlightenment. We can be sure that the Buddhas, the Lords, will predict (215) that this Bodhisattva shall win full enlightenment. For a Bodhisattva has set out for long in the vehicle, and his wholesome roots are mature, if he gets to this deep perfection of wisdom, even if he gets no further than hearing it. How much more so if he would also bear it in mind, etc., to: repeat it. For the thoughts of beings who are not without an abundance of accumulations of karma conducive to the ruin of dharma will become averse to this deep perfection of wisdom, will sway away from it. Through the abundance of that karma beings who have not collected wholesome roots will find no satisfaction nor faith in this reality-limit. But those who find satisfaction and faith in it are people who have collected wholesome roots, well collected them. A man coming out of a huge wild forest, one hundred miles big, up to a thousand miles big, might see certain signs which indicate a town, or other inhabited place, - such as cowherds, or cattle keepers, or boundary lines, or gardens, or groves. (216) From those signs he will infer the nearness of an inhabited place. He feels happier, and robbers no longer worry him. Just so a Bodhisattva for whom this deep perfection of wisdom turns up should know that he is quite near to supreme enlightenment, that before long he will receive the prediction to it. He should also no longer be afraid of the level of the Disciples and Pratyekabuddhas. For this sign has appeared to him, i.e., that he has received this deep perfection of wisdom for vision, praise, worship, and hearing. The Lord: So it is, Sariputra.

Sariputra: A man, desirous of seeing the great ocean, might travel to it. As long as on his travels he sees a tree, or the sign of a tree, a mountain, or the sign of a mountain, he knows that the great ocean is still far away. But when he no longer sees either tree or mountain, then he knows that the great ocean is quite near from there. For this great ocean gradually slopes away, and within it there is neither tree nor mountain. (217) And although he may not yet see the great ocean directly before his eyes, he nevertheless can be quite certain that the ocean is quite near, not much farther away from there. Similar is the case of the Bodhisattva who has heard this deep perfection of wisdom. He knows that, although he has not yet, face to face with these Tathagatas, been predicted to supreme enlightenment, nevertheless he is quite near that prediction. For he has received this deep perfection of wisdom, for vision, praise, worship and hearing. In spring, O Lord, when last year’s leaves have withered away, one can see sproutings on many trees. The men of Jambudvipa will then be glad, because when they have seen these symptoms in the woods, they know that soon also flowers and fruits will come out. For they have seen these signs on the trees. Just so, O Lord, one can be sure that a Bodhisattva, when he receives this deep perfection of wisdom, when it turns up for him, that he has matured his wholesome roots for a long time. It is just because of the existence of these wholesome roots in him that this deep perfection of wisdom has bent over to him. Then those divinities who have seen the Buddhas of the past are delighted, overjoyed and enchanted, because they feel that surely it will not be long before this Bodhisattva will receive his prediction to full enlightenment, since also with the Bodhisattvas of the past these were the symptoms of their coming prediction to full enlightenment. (218) A woman, pregnant with a heavy womb, is twisted, and all weary, she does not walk about a great deal, takes little food, finds little rest, speaks little, has little strength but many pains, often cries out aloud and abstains from habitual cohabitation. She realises that she experiences all these unpleasant feelings in her body as a result of indulging in unwise attention in the past, practising it, developing it, making much of it. When these symptoms are seen in her, one can be sure that before long she will give birth to a child. Just so, when for a Bodhisattva this deep perfection of wisdom turns up for the sake of vision, praise, worship, and hearing, and if, when he hears it, his thought delights in it, and he becomes desirous of it, then one can be sure that before long he will receive the prediction to full enlightenment.

4. Why bodhisattvas are well favoured by the buddhas Subhuti: It is wonderful to see the extent to which the Tathagata has well taken hold of the Bodhisattvas, has well encompassed and favoured them. (219) The Lord: It is because these Bodhisattvas have practised for the weal and happiness of the many, out of pity for the world. Out of pity for Gods and men, for the benefit, the weal and happiness of a great mass of people do they want to win the supreme enlightenment, and thereafter to demonstrate the supreme dharma.

5. Right attitude to perfect wisdom Subhuti: How does the development of perfect wisdom, on the part of a Bodhisattva who courses in perfect wisdom, become increasingly perfect? The Lord: A Bodhisattva courses in perfect wisdom when he reviews neither the growth nor the diminution of form, etc., when he does not review either dharma or no-dharma.

Subhuti: This explanation is surely unthinkable. The Lord: Because form is unthinkable, and so are the other skandhas. When he does not even perceive that form, etc., are unthinkable, then he courses in perfect wisdom.

(220) Sariputra: Who will zealously believe in this so deep perfection of wisdom? The Lord: A Bodhisattva who is practised in perfect wisdom. Sariputra: How does a Bodhisattva become practised, and what is the meaning of the word ‘practised’? The Lord: Here a Bodhisattva does not construct the powers, nor the grounds of self-confidence, nor the Buddha-dharmas, nor even the state of all-knowledge. Because the powers are unthinkable, and so are the grounds of self-confidence, so are the Buddha-dharmas, so is the state of all-knowledge, and so are all dharmas. When, thus practised, a Bodhisattva does not course anywhere, then he courses in perfect wisdom. For that reason is he called ‘practised,’ and that is the meaning of the word ‘practised.’

6. Obstacles to perfect wisdom Subhuti: Deep, O Lord, is perfect wisdom. It is a heap of treasure. It is a pure heap, as pure as space. It would not be surprising if many obstacles should arise to someone who takes up, etc., this perfection of wisdom. (221) The Lord: There will be many obstacles to the study of this perfection of wisdom. For Mara, the Evil One, will make great efforts to cause difficulties. Therefore one should hurry up with one’s task of copying it out. If one has one month to do it in, or two months, or three months, one should just carry on with the writing. If one has a year or more, even then one should just carry on with writing this perfection of wisdom [since after, or even during, that time one may be prevented by all kinds of interruptions]. Because it is a fact that in respect of very precious things many difficulties are wont to arise.

7. The bodhisattva sustained by the buddhas Sariputra: If, O Lord, Mara, the Evil One, is determined to cause obstacles to the study of this perfection of wisdom, how can just now people actually study it, and through whose might can they do so? The Lord: It is through the might of the Buddhas and Lords, of the Tathagatas, that they study it, and that they make progress in training in Thusness. For it is in the nature of things that the Buddhas, the Lords, who stand, hold and maintain themselves in immeasurable and incalculable world-systems, should bring to mind and uphold everyone who teaches (223) and studies this perfection of wisdom. The Buddhas will bring him to mind and assist him. And it is quite impossible to cause an obstacle to someone who has been brought to mind and upheld by the Buddhas.

The Lord: So it is, Sariputra. They are known to the Tathagata, they are sustained and seen by the Tathagata, and the Tathagata beholds them with his Buddha-eye. And those Bodhisattvas who study this perfection of wisdom, and who are progressively training in Thusness, they are near to the Thusness of the supreme enlightenment, and they stand poised in their decision to win full enlightenment. If they only just study this perfection of wisdom, without progressively training in Thusness, (225) they will not stand poised in Suchness in the supreme enlightenment; but nevertheless they also are known to the Tathagata, sustained and seen by the Tathagata, and the Tathagata beholds them with his Buddha-eye. That continual study of the perfection of wisdom, and the mental excitation about it, will be greatly profitable to them, a great advantage, fruit and reward. For, as aiming at ultimate reality, the perfection of wisdom has been set up for the penetration by all beings into what dharmas truly are.

8. Prediction about spread of perfect wisdom Moreover, these Sutras associated with the six perfections will, after the passing away of the Tathagata, appear in the South. From the South they will spread to the East, and from there to the North - from the time when the Dharma-Vinaya is like freshly made cream right into the period when the good law disappears. Those who at that time study and preserve this perfection of wisdom will be brought to mind by the Tathagata; the Tathagata will know, sustain and see them, and behold them with his Buddha-eye.

Sariputra: Will even this so deep perfection of wisdom in the last time, in the last period, be widespread in the northern direction, in the northern part of the world? The Lord: Those who, in the North, will make efforts in this deep perfection of wisdom after they have heard it, (226) they will make it widespread. As set out for long in the vehicle should the Bodhisattvas be known who will study this perfection of wisdom then.

9. Description of bodhisattvas who will study perfect wisdom Sariputra: Those Bodhisattvas who in the North will study this deep perfection of wisdom, will they be many or few? The Lord: There will be many, a good many Bodhisattvas in the North. But there will be only a few among them who will study this deep perfection of wisdom, and who, when it is being taught, will not become demoralized by it. As set out for long in the vehicle should they be known. (227) In the past already they have pursued, questioned and worshipped that Tathagatas. They will become morally perfect, and they will promote the welfare of many people, i.e. starting from just this my supreme enlightenment. For it is just for them that I have preached just the sermons associated with the state of all-knowledge. In them, even after they have passed through this present birth, just these ideas associated with the state of all-knowledge and with the perfection of wisdom, will persist by force of habit. And just this sermon will they both preach and delight in, i.e. concerning the supreme enlightenment. And they will be well established in this perfection of wisdom and concentrate on it. They cannot be diverted from it even by Mara, how much less by other beings, whether they use willpower or mantras. Because of their firm and irresistible drive towards full enlightenment. From hearing this perfection of wisdom those sons and daughters of good family will gain an uncommon degree of zest, elation and serene faith. For many people they will plant wholesome roots, i.e. in supreme enlightenment. Because in my presence, face to face with me, they have uttered the vow: “We, coursing in the practices of a Bodhisattva, shall set going on their way to full enlightenment many hundreds of living beings, yea, many (228) niyutas of kotis of living beings. We shall hold up perfect enlightenment to them, instigate, encourage and excite them to win it, help it to come forth, help them to get established in it, help them to become irreversible.” And when I had surveyed their thought with my thought, I rejoiced in those sons and daughters of good family who belong to the vehicle of the Bodhisattvas and who had made this vow. In consequence they will become so much confirmed in their faith that they will seek rebirth in other Buddha-fields, and also there will come face to face with the Tathagatas there, who demonstrate dharma, and from whom they will hear in detail just this deep perfection of wisdom. In those Buddha-fields also they will set countless living beings going on their way to the supreme enlightenment, and will help them in their quest for full enlightenment.

(229) Sariputra: It is wonderful to think that in past, future and present dharmas there is nothing that the Tathagata has not seen, not heard, not felt, and of which he is unaware. There is no dharma that he has not cognized, there is no conduct of any being that he is unaware of. He has cognized even the future conduct of those Bodhisattvas who are zealous for enlightenment, who are full of earnest intentions, who have exerted vigour. But among those sons and daughters of good family who in the future will study this deep perfection of wisdom, who have exerted themselves on behalf of these six perfections and of the welfare of all beings, and who seek, search and strive to obtain this deep perfection of wisdom, some will not obtain it, while others will obtain it without striving to get it. What, O Lord, is the reason for that? The Lord: So it is, Sariputra. There is nothing in past, future or present dharmas that the Tathagata has not seen, heard and felt, or of which he is unaware. It is further true that at that time in that period, some Bodhisattvas who hunt and (230) search for this perfection of wisdom will not get it. Others will get it without hunting and searching for it. They will be Bodhisattvas who in the past have persistently hunted and searched for this perfection of wisdom. It is through the impetus of this former wholesome root that they will get this perfection of wisdom, in spite of the fact that do not now hunt and search for it. And also the Sutras different from this one, which welcome just this perfection of wisdom, will of their own accord come to them. For it is a rule, Sariputra, that, if a Bodhisattva persistently hunts and searches for this perfection of wisdom, he will, after one or two births, get it, and also the other Sutras associated with perfect wisdom will then come to him on their own.

Sariputra: Will only just these Sutras associated with the six perfections come to him, and no others? The Lord: There will be also other very deep Sutras which will come to this son or daughter of good family of their own accord. For it is a rule, Sariputra, that, if Bodhisattvas set others going on their way to full enlightenment, and help them in their quest for it, (231) help them to become irreversible, and if they also themselves train in that, then, after they have passed through this present birth, of their own account these very deep Sutras will come to them, Sutras associated with the non-apprehension of a basis, associated with emptiness, associated with the six perfections.
