Abstract

Hsuan Tsang, who left a large number of translation works for later generations, is one of the most influential translators of Buddhist scripture translation in the history of Chinese translation. His Five Principles of Non-Translation Theory has greatly promoted the development of Chinese translation. There are some related papers about "Hsuan Tsang Translation" and "Five Principles of Non-Translation Theory ", but few related studies can be found on the relationship between Five Principles of Non-Translation Theory and the translation of Buddhist source words. Therefore, this paper selects Prajñā pāramitā Heart Sutra to explore the application of Hsuan Tsang's Five Principles of Non-Translation Theory in the translation of Buddhist source words.
