Laurence Galian's The Silence of the Mind
7 | THE ONE WHO HESITATES IS LOST
Show Notes

An exploration of the need for spontaneity in spiritual development and why spontaneity and naturalness are necessary to have spiritual experiences. 

You can’t copy spontaneity. It’s like trying to copy a Jackson Pollock art work. Mushin, remember, means “an empty mind.” It also means “no heart.” It doesn’t mean being heartless, it means that the heart should be like a mirror. The mirror doesn’t take its time to decide to show you your reflection. Now just being quick like the mirror, is not the answer. The idea behind this is that you must do something. You need to become more like a spontaneous mirror. Behind this all we might say, in very modern terminology, that you cannot be inhibited and uptight and practice Mushin.
