Faye Wong singing Heart Sutra - 王菲现场演唱《心经》

Faye Wong (Wang Fei) sings the Heart Sutra on a live tv program. Actually she has ever sung this song before, but this one seems to be newer and more touching than the previous one. She's one of the best Buddhist song singers that I've ever known. The other singers who also sing Buddhist songs are Qi Yu and Meng Ting Wei. In fact, the Heart Sutra has ever sung by many singers from Hong Kong, Taiwan and China.   I have ever had a CD of Heart Sutra sung by many artist a few years ago.

Prajna Paramita Hrdaya Sutra - 般若波羅蜜多心經 - bo re bo luo mi duo xin jing

The "Prajna Paramita Hrdaya Sutra" is also called as "Heart Sutra". This Sutra can be said as the most common Sutra recited by Buddhist followers of the world. It's also a very short Sutra for those who practise "Avalokiteshvara Dharma Door". This Sutra is also said to be a Sutra for increasing wisdom. And thus it's very popular and easier to remember compared to other Sutras. And that's why for those early learners like children, they tend to start memorizing this Sutra.

This "Heart Sutra" has many different version (of course with the same meaning). It has Pali, Sanskrit, Chinese and perhaps version in other languages. But, I think the Chinese version is the most common one. You can also find "children version" of Heart Sutra. And the video below is the children voice Heart Sutra.
