The Vimalakirti Sutra By Burton Waston by Burton Watson

An influential Mahayana scripture centered on a brilliant lay sage who outshines monks and bodhisattvas, using humor, paradox, and miraculous feats to reveal the meaning of emptiness, nonduality, and skillful means. Through lively dialogues, a goddess’s shower of flowers, and an eloquent silence that embodies the gate of nonduality, it challenges attachment to rituals and concepts, pointing to liberating wisdom available in everyday life.
