Zen Heart Sutra

Bring the Heart Sutra into your everyday life.

Recite line by line to the gentle rhythm of the mokugyo and the clear tone of the rin bell. An app that stays by your side like a quiet companion.

— Recitation Mode
Guided by the steady beat of the mokugyo and the clear ring of the bell, read through the sutra line by line at your own pace.

— Gentle Plain-Language Translation
The classical scripture, rendered in plain Japanese and English that even a child can understand. Receive with your heart what "form is emptiness" truly means.

— Furigana, Romaji & English
Each can be toggled independently. For beginners learning the kanji, and for family and friends overseas.

— Playback Speed 0.5x to 1.5x
From slow recitation for beginners to a practiced pace for experienced reciters.

— Repeat Mode
Loop the Heart Sutra endlessly. The mokugyo and bell flow on without interruption, perfect as ambient sound for desk work or study. The stillness of a temple, always at hand.

— Thoughtful Design
Vertical brush calligraphy like a sutra book, gold accents, and light that slowly breathes. Every layout choice, font, and color serves the stillness.

For anyone who wishes to memorize the Heart Sutra, to understand its meaning and carry it into daily life, or to find focus during commutes and desk work.
