Book Reviews of The Heart Sutra
Book Review: A Scholarly and Beautiful Book
Summary: 5 Stars
My introduction to the Heart Sutra was in Pema Chodron's book
The Places that Scare You. The ideas captivated me and the
Sanskrit version became an instant mantra. What Red Pine has done is present an historical context for the sutra, using both Sanskrit and Chinese sources. His choices are presented clearly; the book is lovely, easy to hold, and accessible. It is
a welcome addition to my library on meditation.
