1 00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:02,666 Press 600 volumes into 260 words 2 00:00:03,100 --> 00:00:04,533 What did the < Heart Sutra > lose? 3 00:00:04,933 --> 00:00:05,733 Six hundred volumes 4 00:00:05,733 --> 00:00:06,566 How much is it? 5 00:00:07,166 --> 00:00:10,366 Xuanzang spent about three years translating the Great Prajna Sutra. 6 00:00:10,766 --> 00:00:11,933 The Chinese translation of this sutra 7 00:00:12,133 --> 00:00:13,433 More than five million words 8 00:00:14,133 --> 00:00:15,466 That's about five times the size of Dream of the Red Chamber. 9 00:00:16,366 --> 00:00:16,900 And then... 10 00:00:17,100 --> 00:00:18,700 Someone from these five million words 11 00:00:18,966 --> 00:00:20,900 Two hundred and sixty words 12 00:00:21,100 --> 00:00:22,366 It's called the Heart Sutra. 13 00:00:23,133 --> 00:00:24,000 compression ratio 14 00:00:24,166 --> 00:00:25,700 About 20,000 to one 15 00:00:26,033 --> 00:00:27,866 The intuition in your head right now 16 00:00:27,900 --> 00:00:29,066 Maybe something like this. 17 00:00:29,366 --> 00:00:33,033 The Great Prajna Sutra must be filled with countless different kinds of wisdom 18 00:00:33,466 --> 00:00:34,466 After all, there are so many volumes 19 00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:37,866 The Heart Sutra must have retained only one ten-thousandth of the essence 20 00:00:38,566 --> 00:00:41,233 Let me tell you a fact that will surprise a lot of people 21 00:00:41,533 --> 00:00:43,300 In the 600 volumes of the Great Prajna Sutra 22 00:00:43,500 --> 00:00:44,600 The content of the first five sessions 23 00:00:44,833 --> 00:00:45,933 It's the same story. 24 00:00:46,500 --> 00:00:47,866 The core teachings are exactly the same 25 00:00:48,233 --> 00:00:50,233 It's just that the wording and expression are different. 26 00:00:50,933 --> 00:00:53,466 And there's a word in Buddhism for this. 27 00:00:53,833 --> 00:00:55,200 synonymous 28 00:00:55,833 --> 00:00:56,400 synonymous 29 00:00:56,566 --> 00:00:57,233 different languages 30 00:00:57,733 --> 00:01:00,033 The translation is: in 600 volumes 31 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:01,566 There is a considerable part 32 00:01:01,566 --> 00:01:04,000 Is saying the same thing in different words 33 00:01:04,633 --> 00:01:05,666 This is not a mistake. 34 00:01:06,366 --> 00:01:07,266 This is the design. 35 00:01:08,166 --> 00:01:08,900 Hello 36 00:01:09,066 --> 00:01:09,900 Hello. 37 00:01:09,900 --> 00:01:10,733 I am Wang Lijie 38 00:01:11,433 --> 00:01:12,466 Today's issue 39 00:01:12,700 --> 00:01:14,133 We speak of the Great Prajna Sutra. 40 00:01:14,266 --> 00:01:17,833 Tell me what the raw material was before it was compressed into the < Heart Sutra > 41 00:01:18,366 --> 00:01:19,600 But more importantly 42 00:01:19,633 --> 00:01:23,666 We're going to ask a question: Press 600 volumes into 260 words. 43 00:01:24,033 --> 00:01:25,466 Something is missing. 44 00:01:26,100 --> 00:01:28,433 If you have read our previous < Heart Sutra > 45 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:29,566 You already know 46 00:01:29,933 --> 00:01:32,966 The structural core of the Heart Sutra is Prajnaparamita 47 00:01:33,300 --> 00:01:35,066 Rather than being empty as we usually think 48 00:01:35,733 --> 00:01:37,366 Today we go upstream 49 00:01:37,833 --> 00:01:39,900 Let's see what those 600 volumes are 50 00:01:40,300 --> 00:01:41,900 And that compressed motion. 51 00:01:41,933 --> 00:01:43,200 What does it mean? 52 00:01:43,766 --> 00:01:44,566 Background first 53 00:01:45,066 --> 00:01:47,133 The Great Prajna Sutra is not a single classic 54 00:01:47,333 --> 00:01:49,033 It's a classic collection. 55 00:01:49,566 --> 00:01:51,833 Xuanzang translated this group of classics into Chinese 56 00:01:52,133 --> 00:01:53,266 Divided into sixteen sessions 57 00:01:53,366 --> 00:01:54,166 Four locations 58 00:01:54,766 --> 00:01:56,166 Records of the Sixteen Fa Meetings 59 00:01:56,333 --> 00:01:57,233 Put it together. 60 00:01:57,433 --> 00:01:58,200 That's 600 volumes. 61 00:01:58,933 --> 00:02:01,433 This collection includes the < Diamond Sutra > you are familiar with. 62 00:02:01,933 --> 00:02:03,466 The full name of the Diamond Sutra 63 00:02:03,633 --> 00:02:06,366 It is called Able to Break the Vajra Prajna Paramita Sutra 64 00:02:06,700 --> 00:02:08,800 It is the ninth meeting of the Great Prajna Sutra 65 00:02:08,833 --> 00:02:11,066 That is, a component of this collection 66 00:02:11,866 --> 00:02:13,200 The same prajna doctrine 67 00:02:13,566 --> 00:02:15,666 There's 600 volumes in full unfolding. 68 00:02:15,966 --> 00:02:18,166 There are about 5,000 words of the < Diamond Sutra >. 69 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:20,700 At the end, there was only 260 words of the Heart Sutra. 70 00:02:21,100 --> 00:02:22,333 There are three scales. 71 00:02:22,333 --> 00:02:23,333 Getting leaner 72 00:02:24,300 --> 00:02:25,233 In these sixteen sessions 73 00:02:25,366 --> 00:02:28,066 The first five sessions are all about the same set of prajna teachings 74 00:02:28,533 --> 00:02:30,033 The further back, the simpler. 75 00:02:30,533 --> 00:02:32,000 First, there will be 400 volumes. 76 00:02:32,333 --> 00:02:34,066 And they get shorter and shorter. 77 00:02:34,866 --> 00:02:38,033 You can think of it as a ridiculously thick lecture transcript 78 00:02:38,466 --> 00:02:39,266 Same class. 79 00:02:39,466 --> 00:02:42,066 The teacher told the different students over and over again 80 00:02:42,633 --> 00:02:44,433 The words are not exactly the same every time 81 00:02:44,833 --> 00:02:46,766 The audience is different every time. 82 00:02:47,166 --> 00:02:48,400 But the core content 83 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:49,033 It's the same set. 84 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:51,133 So this creates a problem. 85 00:02:51,733 --> 00:02:52,933 Why repeat? 86 00:02:53,500 --> 00:02:56,100 This is a very central concept in Buddhism. 87 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:57,066 Convenience 88 00:02:57,700 --> 00:02:59,366 Convenient in modern Chinese 89 00:02:59,533 --> 00:03:01,266 It's what we mean every day 90 00:03:02,033 --> 00:03:03,033 But in Buddhism 91 00:03:03,300 --> 00:03:04,133 It's completely different. 92 00:03:04,833 --> 00:03:05,466 convenient 93 00:03:05,733 --> 00:03:07,900 It is an accurate adaptation to the specific situation 94 00:03:08,700 --> 00:03:12,800 How, to whom, and at what time to say what 95 00:03:13,433 --> 00:03:16,066 Let the other party really receive that wisdom 96 00:03:16,533 --> 00:03:17,333 It's called convenience 97 00:03:18,133 --> 00:03:19,500 Buddhism has a saying 98 00:03:19,833 --> 00:03:21,500 It's called 84,000 Dharmas. 99 00:03:22,333 --> 00:03:24,566 Not that there are 84,000 kinds of wisdom. 100 00:03:24,933 --> 00:03:26,766 It is a path to the same wisdom. 101 00:03:27,266 --> 00:03:28,600 There are 84,000. 102 00:03:29,133 --> 00:03:32,433 Each one is designed for a different type of heart 103 00:03:32,633 --> 00:03:34,433 Massive repetition of the Great Prajna Sutra 104 00:03:34,733 --> 00:03:36,533 It is the concrete implementation of this logic 105 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,600 It is also the central insight that all laws are empty 106 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:41,866 For a person who is obsessed with material things 107 00:03:41,866 --> 00:03:43,966 To cut in from the impermanence of everyday life 108 00:03:44,533 --> 00:03:46,633 For someone obsessed with logical deduction 109 00:03:47,033 --> 00:03:48,566 In terms of causal analysis 110 00:03:49,100 --> 00:03:51,500 For someone who already has a good foundation in practice 111 00:03:51,633 --> 00:03:53,500 You can talk about emptiness directly 112 00:03:53,733 --> 00:03:54,500 Don't beat around the bush 113 00:03:55,166 --> 00:03:56,200 Same content. 114 00:03:56,500 --> 00:03:57,333 different objects 115 00:03:57,433 --> 00:03:58,300 Different packaging 116 00:03:58,400 --> 00:03:59,200 Different entrance 117 00:03:59,766 --> 00:04:02,466 Have you ever experienced this kind of thing: the same principle 118 00:04:02,766 --> 00:04:04,900 You used to listen to it a hundred times without feeling anything 119 00:04:05,366 --> 00:04:08,100 But on a certain day, in a particular situation 120 00:04:08,500 --> 00:04:10,700 Someone uses a phrase you've never heard before 121 00:04:10,933 --> 00:04:12,033 Suddenly it works. 122 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:13,333 That is convenience. 123 00:04:13,633 --> 00:04:14,966 No, that's changed. 124 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:16,633 Is that expression 125 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:18,933 Exactly aligned with your current state 126 00:04:19,466 --> 00:04:21,366 The 600 volumes of the Great Prajna Sutra 127 00:04:21,366 --> 00:04:23,566 It's for countless different states 128 00:04:23,900 --> 00:04:26,333 Be prepared for countless different alignment methods 129 00:04:26,966 --> 00:04:27,666 Six hundred volumes 130 00:04:27,766 --> 00:04:29,900 It is to take care of 600 different hearts 131 00:04:30,166 --> 00:04:30,766 OK 132 00:04:31,133 --> 00:04:33,133 Now let's introduce a modern perspective 133 00:04:33,633 --> 00:04:35,933 Because it makes the whole thing really clear. 134 00:04:36,466 --> 00:04:37,700 In the field of artificial intelligence 135 00:04:37,966 --> 00:04:39,700 There is a concept called knowledge distillation 136 00:04:40,233 --> 00:04:41,700 You have a huge model. 137 00:04:41,933 --> 00:04:43,366 It's often called the teacher model. 138 00:04:43,833 --> 00:04:45,300 It has hundreds of billions of parameters. 139 00:04:45,733 --> 00:04:46,766 Extremely capable 140 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:48,000 But it's very expensive to run. 141 00:04:48,700 --> 00:04:50,766 Then you train a much smaller model 142 00:04:50,766 --> 00:04:51,766 It's called the student model. 143 00:04:52,566 --> 00:04:54,866 Student models are not learned directly from original data sources 144 00:04:55,133 --> 00:04:56,600 They learn from the teacher model. 145 00:04:57,166 --> 00:05:00,000 It looks at how the teacher model processes various inputs. 146 00:05:00,433 --> 00:05:01,900 Imitate its output law 147 00:05:02,333 --> 00:05:05,900 Distillate the wisdom of teachers into their own more compact parameter spaces 148 00:05:07,033 --> 00:05:08,200 Good knowledge distillation 149 00:05:08,633 --> 00:05:12,133 Let the students model even though the parameters are only one percent of the teacher's 150 00:05:12,666 --> 00:05:16,166 But achieve more than 90% of the teacher's performance on core tasks 151 00:05:16,700 --> 00:05:18,100 What have you found now? 152 00:05:18,700 --> 00:05:20,700 The Great Prajna Sutra is a teacher model. 153 00:05:21,266 --> 00:05:22,966 The Heart Sutra is a student model 154 00:05:23,666 --> 00:05:25,566 The reason why the < Great Prajna Sutra > is repeated 155 00:05:25,966 --> 00:05:29,800 Precisely because it is a teacher with an infinite number of different inputs 156 00:05:30,100 --> 00:05:32,033 It needs to be expressed in a different way 157 00:05:32,233 --> 00:05:35,933 Demonstrate the same core wisdom to different types of learners 158 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:38,100 And what the Heart Sutra does 159 00:05:38,133 --> 00:05:40,900 Did you compress the < Great Prajna Sutra > file? 160 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:46,300 It's about taking that core wisdom from all of those layers of expression and pedagogical adaptation. 161 00:05:46,333 --> 00:05:47,066 Stripped out 162 00:05:47,433 --> 00:05:51,100 Distilled into pure essence that is irrelevant to specific audiences 163 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:54,533 I talked about the Dharani issue before 164 00:05:54,533 --> 00:05:56,966 I've used the Compression is Smart framework. 165 00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,233 It was about compression of sound sequences. 166 00:05:59,833 --> 00:06:03,100 Today it's more accurately referred to as knowledge distillation. 167 00:06:03,100 --> 00:06:04,500 Not file compression 168 00:06:04,933 --> 00:06:06,633 There's a fundamental difference between these two things. 169 00:06:07,333 --> 00:06:11,266 The logic of file compression is to keep the original information intact 170 00:06:11,300 --> 00:06:13,866 Just store it in a more economical encoding 171 00:06:14,333 --> 00:06:15,266 Open compressed package 172 00:06:15,666 --> 00:06:18,366 The original information is still there verbatim 173 00:06:19,033 --> 00:06:21,200 The logic of knowledge distillation is completely different 174 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,033 The concrete expression of the teacher model is discarded 175 00:06:24,533 --> 00:06:27,233 What remains is a deeper intellectual structure 176 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:30,566 Student models can do what teachers do 177 00:06:30,900 --> 00:06:32,566 But it's not a scaled-down version of the teacher. 178 00:06:32,900 --> 00:06:36,266 It is the distillation of all the teacher's knowledge and experience after digestion 179 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:39,400 This means one thing: you have no way to get from 180 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:42,100 The < Great Prajna Sutra > is restored from the < Heart Sutra > 181 00:06:42,933 --> 00:06:45,666 There are a lot of specific teaching situations in those 600 volumes 182 00:06:45,866 --> 00:06:47,733 Convenient methods for different root implants 183 00:06:48,366 --> 00:06:50,800 The gradual process of understanding in dialogue 184 00:06:51,033 --> 00:06:53,566 It was consciously removed. 185 00:06:54,133 --> 00:06:54,966 left behind 186 00:06:55,133 --> 00:06:56,766 Is the shape of core intelligence 187 00:06:57,133 --> 00:06:59,400 Rather than the full development of the core wisdom 188 00:07:00,166 --> 00:07:02,433 This is what the Heart Sutra has lost. 189 00:07:02,833 --> 00:07:04,200 I've divided it into three layers. 190 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:05,533 first floor 191 00:07:05,733 --> 00:07:06,566 Lost context 192 00:07:07,300 --> 00:07:08,633 In the Great Prajna Sutra 193 00:07:08,666 --> 00:07:10,933 Every teaching has a clear context 194 00:07:11,500 --> 00:07:12,600 When did you say that? 195 00:07:12,900 --> 00:07:13,800 To whom? 196 00:07:14,133 --> 00:07:15,466 So what happened? 197 00:07:16,066 --> 00:07:17,900 These situations are not decoration. 198 00:07:18,266 --> 00:07:20,333 They are the conditions for intelligence to land 199 00:07:20,933 --> 00:07:21,933 Same sentence 200 00:07:22,100 --> 00:07:24,533 Speak to different people at different times 201 00:07:24,733 --> 00:07:26,400 The meanings are completely different. 202 00:07:27,166 --> 00:07:28,966 Color is emptiness 203 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,800 For someone who has just lost a loved one 204 00:07:31,833 --> 00:07:34,566 And for someone who is planning to start a business 205 00:07:34,566 --> 00:07:35,933 What it can do 206 00:07:35,933 --> 00:07:36,733 different 207 00:07:37,300 --> 00:07:40,333 The < Heart Sutra > abstracts all the situations 208 00:07:40,333 --> 00:07:41,466 Only the conclusion remains 209 00:07:42,133 --> 00:07:42,766 second floor 210 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:43,933 Lost the process 211 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:46,566 There's a lot of dialogue in the Prajna Sutra. 212 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:47,666 Disciple questions 213 00:07:47,666 --> 00:07:48,666 Bodhisattva responds 214 00:07:48,700 --> 00:07:49,666 layer by layer 215 00:07:50,100 --> 00:07:52,966 The process of dialogue is itself training 216 00:07:52,966 --> 00:07:54,866 It doesn't just show the conclusion 217 00:07:55,133 --> 00:07:58,600 It's about how to think about the full path to that conclusion. 218 00:07:58,933 --> 00:08:00,866 How to get from a wrong understanding 219 00:08:00,966 --> 00:08:03,433 Step by step, they are pointed in the right direction 220 00:08:03,633 --> 00:08:06,466 This path is visible in the Great Prajna Sutra 221 00:08:07,066 --> 00:08:08,966 The Heart Sutra only gave the destination 222 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:10,166 No map 223 00:08:10,566 --> 00:08:11,533 Third floor 224 00:08:11,700 --> 00:08:12,666 Lost convenience 225 00:08:13,300 --> 00:08:17,000 The Great Prajna Sutra is full of precise adaptations to specific situations 226 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:19,833 Talk empty to those who cling to some 227 00:08:19,866 --> 00:08:21,866 Don't be empty to those who are obsessed with emptiness 228 00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:24,766 Speak the easy way to those who are afraid that it is difficult to practice 229 00:08:25,266 --> 00:08:26,166 These are convenient 230 00:08:26,166 --> 00:08:28,266 It is part of a complete education system 231 00:08:28,633 --> 00:08:30,866 < Heart Sutra > Remove all these 232 00:08:30,933 --> 00:08:34,333 Only the core structure behind all the convenient methods is retained 233 00:08:34,566 --> 00:08:37,666 Now here's a historical detail that I find very interesting. 234 00:08:38,066 --> 00:08:40,900 And this detail has been controversial in the academic community 235 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:42,833 The Origin of the Heart Sutra 236 00:08:43,066 --> 00:08:46,433 Some Western Buddhist researchers have put forward a subversive view 237 00:08:47,066 --> 00:08:51,933 American scholar Nantir published an influential paper in 1992 238 00:08:51,933 --> 00:08:56,166 Propose: The most widely circulated Xuanzang version of the < Heart Sutra > 239 00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,266 Most likely not translated from Sanskrit 240 00:08:59,566 --> 00:09:01,633 It was written in China itself. 241 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:05,400 The evidence she provided was: the core passage of the Heart Sutra 242 00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:08,766 It matches the earlier Chinese translation of Kumarashi 243 00:09:09,100 --> 00:09:11,266 But it is different from the original Sanskrit script 244 00:09:11,966 --> 00:09:14,033 This makes no sense in translation logic. 245 00:09:14,233 --> 00:09:15,866 Because if it's translated from Sanskrit 246 00:09:16,033 --> 00:09:17,966 It should be closer to Sanskrit 247 00:09:18,466 --> 00:09:19,300 go one step further 248 00:09:19,333 --> 00:09:20,266 She speculated 249 00:09:20,300 --> 00:09:21,566 This editor 250 00:09:21,566 --> 00:09:23,466 It was probably Xuanzang himself 251 00:09:23,733 --> 00:09:25,333 If this statement is correct 252 00:09:25,333 --> 00:09:26,500 And what does that mean? 253 00:09:26,566 --> 00:09:30,033 Means the person who compressed the 600 volumes into 260 words 254 00:09:30,233 --> 00:09:32,033 The person who translated these 600 volumes 255 00:09:32,633 --> 00:09:35,666 Xuanzang spent about three years translating the Great Prajna Sutra. 256 00:09:35,666 --> 00:09:38,166 Then use his thorough understanding of this set of classics 257 00:09:38,266 --> 00:09:40,666 I wrote a refined version of myself 258 00:09:40,833 --> 00:09:42,866 That's the Heart Sutra we recited today. 259 00:09:43,566 --> 00:09:45,466 It's no longer about translation. 260 00:09:45,466 --> 00:09:48,200 It's after the student digests the teacher completely 261 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:50,333 Write a summary of your own 262 00:09:50,666 --> 00:09:52,500 Is this statement accurate? 263 00:09:52,500 --> 00:09:54,400 The academic controversy continues 264 00:09:54,966 --> 00:09:57,800 Japanese and some Chinese scholars hold different opinions 265 00:09:58,366 --> 00:10:00,433 I'm not saying it's true. 266 00:10:01,066 --> 00:10:03,333 But the controversy itself is revealing. 267 00:10:03,566 --> 00:10:06,833 It reminds us that even the most classic Buddhist texts 268 00:10:07,366 --> 00:10:11,000 Its formation process may also be more creative than we imagine 269 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:12,766 More people's hands are inside 270 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:13,566 OK 271 00:10:13,566 --> 00:10:14,266 Speaking of which 272 00:10:14,266 --> 00:10:15,533 I'd like to ask a question. 273 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,633 Why do so many people recite the Heart Sutra every day? 274 00:10:18,666 --> 00:10:20,533 But very few people really understand it 275 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:22,833 Have you ever seen this happen? 276 00:10:23,100 --> 00:10:25,766 A person memorized the < Heart Sutra > thoroughly 277 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,133 But when he really encountered the hardships in his life 278 00:10:28,133 --> 00:10:31,566 He had no idea about the 260 words or the incident in front of him. 279 00:10:31,566 --> 00:10:32,700 What does it matter? 280 00:10:33,566 --> 00:10:34,400 Carry on the back 281 00:10:34,433 --> 00:10:36,700 It just becomes a pure sound. 282 00:10:36,700 --> 00:10:38,200 There is no meaning to land 283 00:10:38,666 --> 00:10:39,600 I think 284 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:41,133 This is precisely because of the < Heart Sutra > 285 00:10:41,133 --> 00:10:44,133 Is a student model with no training data attached 286 00:10:44,833 --> 00:10:48,100 When you open a knowledge distilled artificial intelligence model 287 00:10:48,100 --> 00:10:49,600 You can talk to it. 288 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:51,466 It can give you useful answers 289 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:54,233 But if you want to know why it thinks that way 290 00:10:54,766 --> 00:10:56,333 What is its internal logic? 291 00:10:56,600 --> 00:11:00,533 You need to see how its teacher model deals with these issues 292 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:03,100 The Heart Sutra is the student model. 293 00:11:03,166 --> 00:11:05,000 You recite it, recite it 294 00:11:05,033 --> 00:11:06,300 Has its specific effect 295 00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,133 But if you really want to understand what it's saying 296 00:11:09,433 --> 00:11:11,066 You need its training data. 297 00:11:11,066 --> 00:11:12,900 That is, the Great Prajna Sutra. 298 00:11:13,533 --> 00:11:15,100 Those specific situations 299 00:11:15,100 --> 00:11:16,733 Those gradual conversations 300 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:19,500 Those convenient methods for different root organs 301 00:11:20,066 --> 00:11:21,766 This might explain one thing 302 00:11:22,066 --> 00:11:25,533 Practitioners in history who have a truly deep understanding of the Heart Sutra 303 00:11:25,966 --> 00:11:27,000 Almost without exception 304 00:11:27,033 --> 00:11:31,233 They all reached that understanding after studying a large number of prajna classics 305 00:11:31,633 --> 00:11:34,000 They didn't just recite 260 words 306 00:11:34,233 --> 00:11:36,900 I was trying to fit the background of 600 volumes into my head. 307 00:11:37,166 --> 00:11:39,833 Then when they read another 260 words 308 00:11:40,033 --> 00:11:42,666 Behind every word stands those six hundred volumes 309 00:11:43,266 --> 00:11:46,500 In other words, the Heart Sutra presupposes that it can be understood 310 00:11:46,566 --> 00:11:48,533 Is that you already know what it leaves out 311 00:11:48,900 --> 00:11:50,166 Stop this sentence 312 00:11:50,166 --> 00:11:51,233 It's worth remembering. 313 00:11:52,100 --> 00:11:52,833 Speaking of which 314 00:11:52,866 --> 00:11:55,833 And I wanted to take that insight and push it in a broader context. 315 00:11:56,366 --> 00:11:57,566 Perhaps we are facing 316 00:11:57,666 --> 00:12:00,166 It is not just the relationship between < Great Prajna Sutra > and < Heart Sutra > 317 00:12:00,833 --> 00:12:03,933 It is the relationship between all the classics and all the aphorisms 318 00:12:04,433 --> 00:12:06,533 Every motto passed down through the ages 319 00:12:06,700 --> 00:12:09,133 There is a 600-volume volume hidden behind it 320 00:12:09,833 --> 00:12:13,166 There are 5,000 words of the Tao Te Ching behind inaction and inaction 321 00:12:13,566 --> 00:12:16,033 Behind the 5,000 words are the observations of Lao Tzu's life 322 00:12:16,833 --> 00:12:20,066 Behind the unity of knowledge and action are all the works of Mr. Yangming 323 00:12:20,233 --> 00:12:24,433 Behind those works, he was demoted to the dragon field and attacked again and again 324 00:12:24,533 --> 00:12:26,666 The true journey of finding again and again 325 00:12:27,300 --> 00:12:29,666 We're looking at the last 260 words. 326 00:12:29,666 --> 00:12:32,533 But behind those 260 words stood a whole person. 327 00:12:32,566 --> 00:12:33,833 And all his encounters 328 00:12:34,233 --> 00:12:36,366 The way we acquire knowledge today 329 00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:38,933 It's more and more like reading the Heart Sutra in bulk 330 00:12:39,100 --> 00:12:41,300 Fewer and fewer people are reading those 600 volumes 331 00:12:41,900 --> 00:12:43,666 The density of information is increasing. 332 00:12:43,866 --> 00:12:45,900 But that highly condensed information 333 00:12:45,900 --> 00:12:48,366 It's a lot of context, a lot of convenience. 334 00:12:48,500 --> 00:12:51,233 A lot of distilled dialogue. 335 00:12:51,766 --> 00:12:53,466 Without the original context 336 00:12:53,466 --> 00:12:55,800 The extract itself is suspended in the air. 337 00:12:55,833 --> 00:12:56,633 good looking 338 00:12:56,633 --> 00:12:57,700 But can't land 339 00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:00,800 I'm not saying we're all going to read 600 volumes. 340 00:13:01,566 --> 00:13:02,266 I mean... 341 00:13:02,266 --> 00:13:05,266 When you hold a highly compressed intelligence in your hand 342 00:13:05,300 --> 00:13:07,333 You know, it's compressed. 343 00:13:07,333 --> 00:13:09,600 You need to know what's behind it 344 00:13:09,866 --> 00:13:11,166 Know what you don't know 345 00:13:11,166 --> 00:13:12,633 Intelligence itself 346 00:13:12,833 --> 00:13:14,733 Which leads me to leave you with a question. 347 00:13:15,100 --> 00:13:17,266 Is there a time in your life when 348 00:13:17,533 --> 00:13:19,466 You think you understand something 349 00:13:19,766 --> 00:13:21,700 The result is in a specific situation 350 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:23,100 You just found out 351 00:13:23,266 --> 00:13:25,233 You just memorized the Heart Sutra 352 00:13:25,500 --> 00:13:27,000 But you don't know how to use it. 353 00:13:27,266 --> 00:13:28,066 That gap 354 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:31,233 That's the distance between 600 volumes and 260 words. 355 00:13:31,733 --> 00:13:32,900 It's not your problem. 356 00:13:33,100 --> 00:13:34,600 It's the price of compression. 357 00:13:35,366 --> 00:13:37,433 There's only one way to land it 358 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:39,700 It is to put the specific life situation 359 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:40,700 Pick it up again 360 00:13:41,333 --> 00:13:42,966 Have you had that experience? 361 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:46,000 Is there something you always thought you knew? 362 00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:47,933 The result is that one day 363 00:13:48,066 --> 00:13:49,633 At a specific moment 364 00:13:49,633 --> 00:13:50,766 You really understand 365 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,033 The understanding before and the understanding after 366 00:13:54,033 --> 00:13:55,133 Through what? 367 00:13:55,633 --> 00:13:57,133 Welcome to let me know in the comment area. 368 00:13:57,300 --> 00:13:58,933 I'm curious about your stories. 369 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:00,300 I am Wang Lijie 370 00:14:00,533 --> 00:14:01,300 See you next time.
