The Virtue of Irrationality

Damn! All day long I was thinking about the virtue of irrationality and then I got squelched by all the wise bodhisattvas in the Vimalakirti Sutra reasoning so brillianty describing non-duality and I thought they were so awesome using such rational thought to describe non-duality and I was convinced I was all wrong and that Buddhism is really all rational and then I [realized I] was not so far off when Manjusri [mon not man] said there is no use for syllables, sounds or ideas. Finally [I found] a comrade [or 2] in my quest for irrationality. —Kim Mosley 9/8/25
