The Teaching of Vimalakirti, treasured in China and Japan and
best known in the West in Canon Étienne Lamotte's classic translation
from the Tibetan and Chinese, has now surfaced in its original language,
Sanskrit, after two thousand years. Centered on a lay bodhisattva, a
master of paradox, who has no equal in debate except the Buddha and
Manjusri, the embodiment of wisdom, Vimalakirti is the most
humorous and engaging of the major Buddhist scriptures, comparable to
the Book of Job in its dramatic format. In the first commentary on the
recovered text, an Irish theologian reads Vimalakirti and the
Gospels in light of each other, and finds resonances between the
Buddhist wisdom of nonduality and the Christian dynamic of incarnation
and paschal transformation.
