The Heart Sutra (or Essence of Wisdom Sutra) is one of the most popular and well-known sutras in Mahayana Buddhism, and is part of the Perfection of Wisdom Sutra (Prajnaparamita Sutra). It contains the teaching on reality given by Avalokiteshvara on Vulture's Peak in response to Arhat Shariputra's request.

In essence, the Heart Sutra is a Dharma teaching on the wrong perception of existence which causes samsara - due to ignorance, sentient beings commit misdeeds of greed and hatred, and are unable to be liberated from the cyclic existence of samsara; and to gain liberation, one must contemplate on emptiness.

According to Buddhist scriptures, the contemplation or recitation of prayers on emptiness is one of the most effective ways to clear obstacles. As such, the recitation of such a powerful text as the Heart Sutra gives very powerful protection against negative samsaric beings. To clear the most severe obstacles, the Heart Sutra puja is usually combined with rituals i.e. the Sheningdundok Puja.

Available in Small and Medium puja sizes, depending on the scale of the problem.
