無心 Mushin: "No Mind" "Mind without Mind"

Mushin is the essence of Zen and Japanese martial arts.
It is a mind not fixed or occupied by thought or emotion and thus open to everything. It is not an empty mind, on the contrary, it is a mind fully present, aware and free.

To achieve this state of mind, it takes years and years of practice. If a person's mind gets free from anger, fear, judgment or ego in the martial arts practice or daily life, Mushin could be achieved.

Painted with gold sumi ink on black calligraphy paper

This would be a perfect gift for any martial artists, zen practicioner or anyone who is interested in Japanese calligraphy art.
