This is an original Japanese shodo calligraphy piece of art.
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.
This would be a perfect gift for any martial artists, zen practioner or anyone who is interested in Japanese calligraphy art.
