    I decided that I will create a very easy (and a bit irreverent .... you will see) pronunciation guide to the Heart Sutra. I saw one in Japan like it, but not in English. Stand by.

            Heart Sutra Japanese Pronunciation Guide (a bit irreverent) - Treeleaf Zendo

            Hi Guys, The following is my slightly irreverent Heart Sutra pronunciation guide. I have seen something like it available in Japan, but not in English. Here is how it works: I will take ordinary English words that sound as close as possible to stand for each of the following. For example: Shin = Shin (of the leg) Disregard

                    (my first post!)

                    Hey all - loving this discussion of the Heart Sutra!

                    Here's a version I've been luckily exposed to:


                    A reminder that as dry as zen can be - it's always vibrantly living just a hairsbreadth away!

                    Gassho,

                        Hello Ar,

                        Love it! Definitely worth the 5-year wait.

                        Please take my words with a big grain of salt. I know nothing. Wisdom is only found in our whole-hearted practice together.

                                    Thank you everyone for posting and contributing to this thread. I can't help but feel a bit guilty as I read them, as chanting the Heart Sutra has not been part of my practice for a very long time.

                                    Life gets busy and I forget. I am going to add the Heart Sutra to my practice again, even if it's only several times a week.

                                    Gassho,
