Prajñā Pāramitā Hridaya Sūtra (Heart Sutra) and its Influence on Nguyen Du’s Shino Poems
Journal Title: International Journal of English and Literature (IJEL) - Year 2019, Vol 9, Issue 4
Abstract
Although Nguyen Du was a Confucian scholar, his thoughts were influenced not only by Confucianism but also by other philosophical schools, including Zen Buddhism (Zen-shū禅宗), especially by the thought of Mahāyāna Meditation through Prajñā Pāramitā Hridaya Sūtra. This article would like to introduce Prajñā Pāramitā Hridaya Sūtra and present its influences on Shino poems of the great poet, Nguyen Du, particularly thought of formlessness, unattachment, and transcendency in ‘Vajracchedikā-prajñāpāramitā-sūtra’ and the thought of emptiness nature in ‘Prajnaparamitahridaya Sutra’.
