Jingang Jing (The Diamond Sutra)金剛般若波羅蜜經

Kumārajīva, Chinese translation · 402 (Later Qin, 4th year of the Hongshi era) · India · 32 fascicles · 5,784 Chinese characters

"All marks that exist are empty and false" — a sutra that teaches one to give rise to the mind without dwelling anywhere. It follows, just as they stand, the thirty-two sections into which Prince Zhaoming divided it. It is told that Huineng, the Sixth Patriarch, heard one line of this sutra and set his heart on awakening.

32 divisions fully translated (127 paragraphs). The four-graph couplet notes that Crown Prince Zhaoming attached to each of the 32 divisions have been translated as well.
