LordBowlich reviewed The Heart Sutra by Red Pine
A wonderful translation of the Heart Sutra with commentary
5 stars
Western philosophers fill thousands of pages just to get a glimpse at what 35 lines in the Heart Sutra achieve.
Red Pine's line-by-line commentary and history of the piece is an excellent decompression and exploration of the piece. This is my second read through, and I've already started reading it again.
