Vimalakirti, was a very wise lay practitioner who lived at the time of the Buddha. In reply to the question: “What is the Bodhisattva’s Gate to the One and Only?” his response was silence. Silence is synonymous with nonduality. This is a guided meditation commenting on a short text on “Silence”, by a twentieth century nondual teacher called Jean Klein. Jean Klein was not in the Buddhist tradition. He was in a different tradition, Kashmir Shaivism. His lineage is quite influential in the west. One of his students, who now teaches, was a man called Francis Lucille, and Francis Lucille was the teacher of Rupert Spira.
