Preface:

The Heart Sutra by name, is and points to the essence of Buddhism, Mahamudra . As people are at different levels in different times, the supreme difficulty is to speak to all levels at the same time, concisely. Sanskrit is the common spiritual and the essence of many different languages throughout the world. To maintain the spiritual purity of Sanskrit is a noble task to obey the royal command of transmitting the Dharma without ownership.

 

As Dharma is presented from perfection to those who are not perfect, reality is in the perfection of perception. Communication at this level is both spoken and unspoken causing the difficulty of presenting the unspoken by clear communication.

 

Bodhisattva (enlightened being) and the emanation of an enlightened being is a subtle concept to grasp as these are two or more enlightened beings sending (emanating) enlightened messengers to samsara (universe of suffering) through a womb birth where that emanation must reawaken to enlightenment. There are two kinds of Bodhisattva, those that take multiple birth to reawaken and those that quickly reawaken in one lifetime. Sakyamuni fell to the hells and as he progress to enlightenment developing supreme bodhicitta (enlightened attitude and application) to benefit many beings. As this process took many lifetimes, Sakyamuni developed supreme Karma to benefit many beings. To help Sakyamuni accomplish bodhicitta the eight major Bodhisattva Tatha sent supreme emanations (minds are essentially the same) to help Sakyamuni.

 

The supreme emanation Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara teaches the Heart Sutra from perfection with Sakyamuni confirming the supreme truth of the Heart Sutra. In some version of the Heart Sutra, Sakyamuni gives spoken conformation while in this version it is unspoken confirmation. The reason for Avalokitesvara teaching the Heart Sutra is the expression of the perfection of Karma, one must quickly reawaken. When Sakyamuni teaches from his perfection of Karma it is the Karma of suffering that one goes through when one does not quickly reawaken. 

 

Samsara is a very dangerous place. The danger and the suffering that a Bodhisattva goes through by taking a womb birth make the path of a emanating Bodhisattva the supreme path of the ruling law of transmitting the Dharma.

 

Note: Sunyata is expressed in a positive way as purifying illumination, the same as a completely purified conscious mind. Some use the phrase that nothing exists as an independent entity but to reduce this phrase to just nothing or emptiness leads people to a nihilistic concept which is extremely dangerous as people become easily corruptible. Also, people reduce without impure as nothing but there is completely pure perception informing completely.
