The purity of the Buddha land manifests from the mind (inconceivable); / Manifold adornments arise within the mind (inconceivable Vimalakīrti). / Pressing his toe against the ground, [revealing] the trichiliocosm (inconceivable); / On the ocean of the nature of space, he sits upon the flower terrace (inconceivable Vimalakīrti). / In the ten-foot room in the city of Vaiśālī (inconceivable), / There is a layman named Vimalakīrti (inconceivable Vimalakīrti). / Feigning illness, he manifests himself as being sick (inconceivable); / Rulers of kingdoms and princes all come to see him (inconceivable Vimalakīrti). / The immeasurable assemblies of śrāvakas and bodhisattvas (inconceivable), / When asked to inquire after his illness, were not up to the task (inconceivable Vimalakīrti). / Only Mañjuśrī entered to inquire (inconceivable): / 'Layman, what is the cause of your illness?' (inconceivable Vimalakīrti) / He answered: 'The illness arises from folly and clinging (inconceivable); / My illness is neither existent nor non-existent' (inconceivable Vimalakīrti). / He extensively explained that the body is an impermanent phenomenon (inconceivable); / Aggregates, realms, and sense fields combine to form the body (inconceivable Vimalakīrti). / The tip of a bodhisattva's hair can contain the great ocean (inconceivable); / Inside a mustard seed, Mount Sumeru is accommodated (inconceivable Vimalakīrti). / With his hand he hurls worlds beyond other realms (inconceivable); / The heavenly maiden in the room awakens to the unarisen (inconceivable Vimalakīrti).
