Abstract
The Prajñāpāramitā-sūtras are the largest and perhaps also the earliest among the scriptures basic to Mahāyāna Buddhism, the Buddhism of the Great Way. The ultimate reality of the undivided being and the way-faring by non-clinging constitute practically the heart of these sūtras (aphorisms). They form the foundation of Māhāyāna, which developed and upheld the absolutist line of Buddhist philosophy.
