It is a philosophical text from the Mahayana tradition that explores concepts related to emptiness, the nature of reality, and the path toward enlightenment. The text is centered around the teachings of the Buddha as he instructs his disciples on the importance of realizing the non-duality of existence and the illusory nature of all phenomena. The essence of "金剛般若波羅蜜經" lies in its discourse between the Buddha and his disciple, Śrāvakabodhi, focusing on how bodhisattvas should cultivate the mind and act without attachment to forms or concepts. The text emphasizes that true wisdom arises from seeing beyond appearances and developing an understanding that transcends conventional distinctions such as self and other, existence and non-existence. Throughout the scripture, the Buddha articulates profound insights about the nature of enlightenment—asserting that the path cannot be grasped through ordinary thoughts or frameworks. Instead, the teachings encourage practitioners to let go of attachments, thus attaining the ultimate wisdom embodied by the transcendental "prajñā" or perfection of wisdom.
