When Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva was practicing the profound Prajna Paramita, he illuminated the five aggregates (form, sensation, perception, volition, and consciousness) and saw that they are all empty, thus transcending all suffering and distress.
Shariputra, form is not different from emptiness, emptiness is not different from form; form is emptiness, emptiness is form. The same applies to sensation, perception, volition, and consciousness.
Shariputra, the empty nature of all phenomena is neither born nor extinguished, neither defiled nor pure, neither increasing nor decreasing. Therefore, in emptiness, there is no form, no sensation, perception, volition, or consciousness; no eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, or mind; no form, sound, smell, taste, touch, or objects of mind; no realm of eyes, up to no realm of consciousness; no ignorance, nor the end of ignorance; up to no aging and death, nor the end of aging and death; no suffering, no cause of suffering, no cessation, no path; no wisdom, and no attainment.
Because there is nothing to attain, the Bodhisattva, relying on Prajna Paramita, has no hindrances in mind. With no hindrances, there is no fear, far removed from distorted dreams, and ultimately attaining Nirvana.
All Buddhas of the past, present, and future, by relying on Prajna Paramita, attain Anuttara-Samyak-Sambodhi (Supreme Perfect Enlightenment).
Thus, it is known that Prajna Paramita is the great divine mantra, the great illuminating mantra, the unsurpassed mantra, the unequaled mantra, capable of eliminating all suffering, true and not false.
Therefore, the Prajna Paramita mantra is proclaimed, and the mantra is spoken as follows:
Gate Gate Paragate Parasamgate Bodhi Svaha.
