Day 64

SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY
The Heart Sutra


Avalokitesuara Bodisattva
when practicing deeply the Prashna Paramita
perceive that all five skandas are empty
and was safe from all suffering and distress

Know then:

form does not differ from emptiness

emptiness does not differ from form

that which is form is emptiness, that which

is emptiness form, these same is true of

feelings, perceptions, impulses, consciousness;

all dhamas are marked with emptiness

they do not appear or disappear, are not

tainted or pure, do not increase or

decrease, therefore in emptiness, no form,

no feeling, no impulses, no perception,

no consciousness, no eyes, no ears

no nose, no tougue, no body, no mind

no colour, no sound, no smell, no taste,

no touch, no object of mind, no realm of sensing,

go forth until no realm of consciousness

no ignorance and no extinction of it, and

so forth until no death, no holding,

no extinction of them, no suffering,

no origination, no stopping, no path,

no cognition, also no attainment with nothing to attain.

the bohdisattva deepens on Prashna Paramita

and the mind is no hindrance

without any hindrance, no fears exist,

for apart from every perverted view

the bodisatva dwells in nivana, in

the three worlds, all Buddhas deepens on

Prashna Paramita and attain the unsurpassed

complete perfect enlightmentmant

Therefore know the Prashna Paramita is

the great transcendent mantra, is the great

bright mantra, is the utmost mantra, is

the supreme mantra which is able to release

all suffering and pain, so proclaim

the Prashna Paramita mantra, proclaim

the matra

ga-te ga-te para ga-te, para sum ga-te

bodhi savra

INTERFAITH PRAYER OF THE DAY
My ego is but a drop in the Ocean of God and so I let go and let God dissolving into Your Depths.

A COURSE IN MIRACLES
Lesson 64
Let me not forget my function.

Let me not forget my function. 
Let me not try to substitute mine for God's. 
Let me forgive and be happy.
This is the world it is my function to save.


EDGAR CAYCE DAILY READING
Think on This...

In giving to these, then, that seek to know more of that circumstance, those conditions as surrounded that ye call the first Christmas: Do not confuse thyselves. While to you it may be a first Christmas, if it were the first then there would be a last; and ye would not worship, ye would not hold to that which passeth. For time never was when there was not a Christ and not a Christ mass.
