Original lyrics
ENYou who seek,
Reach for the Perfection of Wisdom.
Emptiness is itself empty,
Yet actions are fruitious.
You who seek,
Accept the non-self, tolerantly.
Firmly convinced of emptiness,
Yet compassionate towards all beings.
Bodhisattva,
Between permanence
And impermanence.
Bodhisattva,
Between self
And non-self.
Such is the way of Śūnyatā:
Emptiness is itself empty.
Empty.
In the past. In the present. In the future.
Empty.
Bodhisattva,
Between wisdom
And compassion.
Bodhisattva,
Between existence
And non-existence.
Such is the way of Śūnyatā:
Emptiness is not nothingness.
You who seek,
Fear not the void.
For emptiness is itself empty,
And pure.
