Among the most famous if all the Buddhist scriptures, the Heart Sutra reveals the truth of emptiness through a short exchange between two of the Buddha's most illustrious disciples, Avalokiteshwara and Shariputra. Traditional commentary expands on the cryptic style of the sutra to clarify the exact nature of the wisdom realizing emptiness and the 'method' practices that are its essential complement, relating these two aspects of practice to the five levels on the path to enlightenment. The brevity and profound nature of the Heart Sutra have made its recitation popular as an effective means for dispelling obstacles to spiritual endeavor.

The Basic Program provides structured education in the Buddha’s teachings to committed students ready to progress beyond introductory-level study and practice. It is called the ‘Basic’ Program because its practice-oriented curriculum provides the foundation for understanding the entire Buddhist path from sutra to tantra. It was designed by Lama Zopa Rinpoche to combine academic training and meditation practice. While the Basic program covers nine subject areas, each subject can be taken as a stand alone topic. CKSL began offering the subjects of the Basic Program starting with the subject the "The Heart Sutra."

"Form is empty, emptiness is form; form is not other than emptiness, emptiness is not other than form..." -  Shakyamuni Buddha
