Summary
s.1The Perfection of Wisdom in Twenty-Five Thousand Lines is among the most important scriptures underlying both the “vast” and the “profound” approaches to Buddhist thought and practice. Known as the “middle-length” version, being the second longest of the three long Perfection of Wisdom sūtras, it fills three volumes of the Kangyur. Like the two other long sūtras, it records the major teaching on the perfection of wisdom given by the Buddha Śākyamuni on Vulture Peak, detailing all aspects of the path to enlightenment while at the same time emphasizing how bodhisattvas must put them into practice without taking them—or any aspects of enlightenment itself—as having even the slightest true existence.
s.1《般若波羅密多二萬五千頌》是支撐佛教思想和修行的「廣大」與「深奧」兩種取向的最重要經典之一。作為「中等長度」版本，是三部長篇般若波羅密多經中篇幅第二長的，在大藏經中占據三卷。如同另外兩部長篇經典一樣，它記錄了釋迦牟尼佛在靈鷲山所傳授的關於般若波羅密多的主要教法，詳細闡述了菩提道的所有方面，同時強調菩薩必須在修習這些方面時，不執著於它們，甚至不執著於菩提本身具有絲毫真實存在的性質。
