觀自在菩薩, 行深般若波羅蜜多時, 照見五蘊皆空,度一切苦厄。
When Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva contemplated profoundly upon Prajnaparamita, he realized that the five aggregates are empty (Selflessness - All names and forms/mind perception/sensation/feeling/thinking/thought process/modification of the mind/action and reaction/consciousness are all selfless), and thus transcended all suffering and distress.
-----------------------------------------
Regardless of how much knowledge/information/teachings about all and everything that the mind has been accumulating/memorizing, it still needs to inquire the truth of all knowledge/information/teachings and attains direct self realization towards all that.
Just by coming in contact with/hearing/reading/studying/analyzing/memorizing/talking/propagating/discussing/debating/researching towards all kinds of teachings/Sutras/Mantras/Scriptures/knowledge/information doesn't remove the veil of ignorance and doesn't free the mind from the perception/experience of all kinds of disturbance and suffering.
Inquire the truth of everything.
Purify. Meditate. Inquire. Realize.
Root out passion, the idea of 'I', and egoism.
Renounce the world of egoism and ignorance.
Let go all kinds of worldly egoistic attachments, identifications, ideas, beliefs, values, and practices.
Attain direct self realization towards Impermanence (諸法無常) and Selflessness (諸法無我).
Do not blind-believing, blind-following, blind-practicing, blind-agreeing/disagreeing, blind-propagating, blind-glorifying.
