Wisdom Path is a landscaped installation of wooden columns inscribed with the calligraphy of the complete verses of the Heart Sutra written by master Sinologist Professor Jao Tsung-I.
心经简林位处大屿山凤凰山山麓,是国学大师饶宗颐教授的心经墨宝,整篇书法都刻在园林的木柱上,因形似古时的竹简,因此名为「心经简林」 。
《心经》的梵文全名是《般若波罗蜜多心经》,是梵文里面智慧和圆满的象徵,刻在心经简林的经文是唐朝玄奘法师的译本,也是儒、释、道三教所共尊的宝典。这个户外木柱群由38条长8米至10米、宽1米多的梨花木木柱组成,依照天然山势排列成无限符号 (∞),代表生生不息。木柱群的最高点是编号23的木柱,这里刻意留白,以象徵《心经》「空」的要义。饶宗颐教授指出《心经》最深沉的意蕴就是在于「无罣碍」。
