Stargate, Avalokiteshvara, Zen Wood, performing his meditation in the deep Parajuna Paramita thought thus:
There are five thieves and these by their nature are empty.
Sarija, for is emptiness, emptiness is form.
Emptiness is not different from form, and form is not different from emptiness.
What is form is emptiness, what is emptiness is form.
The same is true of perception, name, conception and knowledge.
Sarija, all things have the character of emptiness.
They have no beginning and no end.
They are not pure, neither are they impure.
They do not decrease, neither do they increase.
Therefore, Sarija, in emptiness there is no form, no perception, no name, no concept, no knowledge.
No eye, ear, nose, tongue, body or mind.
No form, sound, smell, taste, touch or attachment.
No world of sight … no world of consciousness.
No ignorance and no end to ignorance.
No old age and death and no end to old age and death.
No suffering, accumulation, destruction, way.
No wisdom and no gain.
No gain and thus the Bodhisattva lives by Parajuna-Paramita.
With no hindrance in the mind,
No hindrance therefore no fear.
Far beyond mistaken fantasy at last there is Nirvana.
All past, present and future Buddhas live by Parajuna Paramita.
And therefore receive the highest, most perfect enlightenment.
Therefore know the Parajuna Paramita mantra is the great mantra,
The vivid mantra, the highest mantra, the incomparable mantra.
It completely clears all pain - this is true not false.
So set forth the Parajuna Paramita mantra, Set forth this mantra and say:
Ajae, ajae, bara ajae, bara sung ajae, bodhi savaha. Ajae, ajae, bara ajae, bara sung ajae, bodhi savaha. Ajae, ajae, bara ajae, bara sung ajae, bodhi savah
