"The heart Sutra", 2005, Single Channel DVD, 14m20s
「心經」又稱「般若波羅蜜多心經」,是最簡短及傳誦最廣的佛教經典。彭在這件作品中使用最原始的梵文版本。傳誦於全亞洲,“心經“是佛教智慧的精髓與總和 。它傳達一切本空、心無罣礙的本質。跟其他多數的佛教經文不同的是,它事實上並非源自於佛陀的教誨。而狗在這作品中,卻完全不費力地佔住了一種看似矛盾的導師位置。
The “Heart Sutra,” also referred to as the “Essence of Wisdom Sutra,” is the shortest and most popular sutra in Buddhism. Peng employs the original Sanskrit version of this scripture for his video. Known throughout Asia, it is regarded as the summation of Buddha’s wisdom; it expresses the insight attained by non-attachment, the doctrine of emptiness. A striking feature that sets it apart from most sutras is the fact that this teaching is not actually delivered by Buddha. The dog here effortlessly inhabits the ambivalent teaching position.
