  2. Bodhisattva • Attaining wisdom, compassion and virtue to help others • Remains out of compassion and friendliness Guanyin

  3. Bodhisattva • Perfections (paramitas) • Giving (generosity)--dana • Morality (discipline, conduct)--sila • Patience--ksanti • Vigor (diligence)--virya • Concentration--dhyana • Wisdom--prajna

  4. The Heart Sutra • Read p. 254—form is emptiness • Śūnyatā • The five aggregates (see p. 209) • Material form • Feeling • Perception (discrimination) • Mental formations (compositional factors) • Consciousness

  5. The Heart Sutra • Look at pp. 256-257 • The story of the middle path • The five aggregates are empty of inherent existence

  6. Implications for dependent origination • If whatever exists depends on everything else, there cannot be one cause of anything; whatever creates is created • No beings are solely other created; co-dependent and mutually creating • Space and time are abstractions; independently existing things need containers • Conceptual descriptions are useful, but they do not correspond to reality; distort by making separates and static
