Detailed explanation-1: -The term is shortened from mushin no shin (), a Zen expression meaning the mind without mind and is also referred to as the state of “no-mindness". That is, a mind not fixed or occupied by thought or emotion and thus open to everything. It is translated by D.T. Suzuki as “being free from mind-attachment".
Detailed explanation-2: -mushin (uncountable) A mental state free from anger, fear, etc., into which expert martial artists are said to enter during combat.
Detailed explanation-3: -Mushin no shin means “mind without mind.” It’s where your inner voice is silent and your mind is at peace. You act purely based on instinct. There’s no better feeling for a stress-ravaged brain. I learned the concept from Karate masters in Okinawa but it is most famous because of Bruce Lee.
Detailed explanation-4: -Breathe! Once you are comfortably seated on a rug or a pillow (or lie down, if it suits you better), close your eyes. Observe your body! Keep breathing relaxed and watch what happens to your body. Accept your thoughts! If your thoughts wander, let them do it. Pay attention to breathing again! 19-Mar-2021
