色即是空，空即是色，受想行识，亦复如是。
Color is empty, empty is color, feelings,
thoughts, actions, perceptions are all the same.
歌手王菲的歌曲广为流传，在她唱的众多歌曲中，我唯一感兴趣，也是唯一能记住歌名和歌词的就是《心经》。
《心经》是佛家经典，其全称为《般若波罗蜜多心经》。
“般若”（b6rC）,是梵语智慧的意思，般若智慧是一种明白了宇宙人生所有真理的智慧境界。佛学称之为“了了分明”，凡事一目了然。“波罗蜜”是到达彼岸的意思，也就是说此岸是凡夫，彼岸是觉悟了真理的人（佛）；从凡夫通过修行而到达了佛的智慧境界。所以佛是觉悟的人，人是迷惑的众生。
《心经》指出：从凡夫到佛的过程是用心修成的，而并非依赖眼、耳、鼻、舌、身、意六根，以及对应六根的色、声、香、味、触、法六尘而修成的。一切人所具备的眼界、意识界、无明界、生老病死界、苦难界以及得失等等，都是到达彼岸的障碍。相反，我们只能通过修行逐渐忘却人的本质，从而进入道的范畴。所以得道的人说：“顺者成人，逆者成仙。”
“色不异空，空不异色，色即是空，空即是色。”这句话很难理解。空是无的意思，色是有的意思。执着于无和执着于有都不是成道的方法。空与色、有与无在凡夫眼里是二，而在得道人看来只是一。因此，佛学称不二法门，空色、有无皆为一。所以，“色即是空，空即是色，受想行识，亦复如是”。
The songs of Singer Faye Wong is widely circulated. Among the many songs she sang, I am only interested in the Heart Sutra.
The Heart Sutra is a Buddhist classic. Its whole name called the Prajna Paramita Heart Sutra. “Prajna” is the meaning of Sanskrit wisdom. Prajna wisdom is a state of wisdom that understands all the truths of the universe and the human life. Buddhi *** called it “clear”, and everything is clear at a glance. “Paramita” means to reach the other side, that is to say on this shore is a mortal, and on the other side is a person who has realized the truth (Buddha); the mortal, through practice, is trying to reach Buddha, to learn his wisdom. The Buddha is a person of enlightenment and the goal of the mortal.
The Heart Sutra points out that the process from the mortal to
the Buddha is done with the mind, not rely on the six senses: not with the eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, and sense, as well as the six dusts corresponding to the six senses: the color, sound, fragrance, taste, touch, and method. The vision, the consciousness, the ignorance, the sickness and death, the suffering, and the gains and losses of all people are all obstacles to reaching the other side. On the contrary, we can only enter another realm of Tao by gradually gaining back the forgotten human nature through practice. So the one who got the Tao said, “The obedient *** , the rebellious become immortal.”
It is different to understand the following phrase: “The color is not different, empty is not different, the color is empty, the empty is color.” The empty is the meaning of none, the color is the material form. Persistence in “empty” form is not a method of enlightenment. Empty and color, yes and no, they are two in the eyes of the moral, but in the eyes of the Taoist is only one. Therefore, Buddhi *** holds two as one. The empty, color, yes or no are the same as one. Therefore, color is empty, empty is color, feelings, thoughts, actions, perceptions are all the same.
