Prajnaparamita The Perfection of Wisdom
The wisdom of all Buddhas personified in the enlightened form of a female deity.
Shakyamuni Buddha gave many teachings on the Pefection of Wisdom and these vary greatly in length. The longest is known as the 'Perfection of Wisdom Sutra in One Hundred Thousand Verses' and its purpose is to show how the Bodhisattva should train in the correct view of reality and thereby achieve full awakening from ignorance. |
