Reddit Post: https://www.reddit.com/r/zen/comments/11i4yik/what_did_vimalakirti_say/ Post Summary: This is the 48th case from Wansong's Book of Serenity, Vimalakirti asked Manjusri, "What is a Bodhisattva's method of entering nonduality?"
Manjusri said, "According to my mind, in all things, no speech, no explanation, no direction and no representation, leaving behind all questions and answers—this is the method of entering nonduality." Then Manjusri asked Vimalakirti, "We have each spoken. Now you should say, good man, what is a Bodhisattva's method of entry into nonduality?"
Vimalakirti was silent. -So many people have commented on this case, including Wansong, Tiantong, Xuedou, Yuanwu, Baofu Congzhan, Langya Jiao, Tianyi Yihuai, Baiyun Duan, Yangqi, Dahui, HuangBo, and Dongshan Chu.
