Mushin

Zen & Buddhist glossary

Mushin (無心) means “no-mind” — a state of clear, unforced presence where you act without the interference of self-conscious thought. Not blankness, but freedom: the mind that has stopped getting in its own way.

More terms

One teaching like this each morning — and Mu, a companion who remembers your path.
