1.24
經曰。垢淨不二者。對垢有淨。垢性本空。淨亦無體。故云不二 維摩默然以明不二者。恒沙萬法皆同一如如體。復如故無一二。言語道斷唯證相應。證亦如如。心境無二。空可言說而詮得耶。
The sūtra states: "Defilement and purity are not two"—purity exists in contrast to defilement; the nature of defilement is fundamentally empty, and purity also has no substance; hence it is said to be "not two." As for "Vimalakīrti remaining silent to illuminate non-duality": the ten thousand phenomena, numerous as the sands of the Ganges, are all of the identical suchness. The substance of suchness is also such; therefore, there is neither one nor two. The path of speech is cut off, and it is only in accord with realization. Realization is also like suchness; mind and object are non-dual. Can emptiness be expressed or captured through words?
