Case: Vimalakīrti asked Mañjuśrī, "What is a bodhisattva's entering the Dharma-gate of non-duality?"

"As I see it, (Concocting it right along.) regarding all dharmas, (Still dissatisfied that it is too little.) there is no word, no speech, (Bring a fire to inspect it.) no indication, no cognition, (Now it comes!) leaving behind all questions and answers: (How thick is his face skin?) this is entering the Dharma-gate of non-duality." (What is it?) / Thereupon Mañjuśrī asked Vimalakīrti, "We have each spoken. (Able to speak, quick to speak!) Benevolent One, you should speak: what is a bodhisattva's entering the Dharma-gate of non-duality?" (One gives, one scrapes; not betting on an evil outburst.) / Vimalakīrti remained silent. (Where did he go?)
