The Wisdom Path Situated on the south east of
Ngong Ping is a monument to the people of Hong
Kong. It is given to them by professor Jan
Tsung-i. With the words of the Heart Sutra, the
monument consists of 38 timber inscribed columns.
These timber columns are set out in a figure of
eight and between 8 and 10 meters high. The
Buddhist stone carving on mount Taisham in
Shandong was discovered by Professor Jan Tsung-i
while on his trip to china. You can visit this
during your Lantau Tours in Hong Kong. As this
sutra is by Buddhists, Taoist and Confucians
considered a treasure, he set about to create a
calligraphic work of the Heart Sutra Inspired by
the carvings.

Used by Buddhists, the Heart Sutra is a pray, it
is believed to be the main one although it is one
of many. Prajna-Paramita heart sutra is the full
title of the sutra, which is a Sanskrit term. The
word Paramita describes perfection and the word
Prajna describes wisdom. We have the perfection
and wisdom and heart (Buddha). "The Perfection of
Wisdom of the Buddha" is what the title reads.
Each column has a selection of that prayer and
this is the prayer of the Sutra. Heart Sutra is
the shortest at only 260 words and is the best
written Mahayana Sutra. Du to the profound
doctrine as its readings are in very difficult
one will find it very difficult to understand the
Heart Sutra. You will be able to find the Secret
of the Universe by persistent meditation and
reading. You just have to find it to truly
understand.

Apart from Lantau, the Airport Layover Tour in
Hong Kong is also awesome. Not square or any
other position, the columns are set out in a
figure of eight. The figure of eight on its side
adheres to the landscape they are set out as well
in such a way. There is no inscription in the
single column at the top. This is because the
word Sunyatta written in the Sutra, which means
emptiness. So the column means emptiness.
