Scope[edit]

This article is too orientated on fighting. Martial Artist can obtain MUSHIN but mushin is not found by endless katas. Please move the fighting aspects down the article into a sub-cat. Vyd 67.233.59.72 (talk) 13:40, 29 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. This is a common theme in Wikipedia articles. You will often find an entire subject "hijacked" by an editor who has focused on only one narrow aspect instead of covering the entire topic. Viriditas (talk) 10:54, 31 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

mushin no shin (無心の心)[edit]

Is it certain that this is the pronounciation? Normal Japanese pronounciation rules is that the last 心 kanji should be pronounced こころ (kokoro) using the 訓読み (kun-yomi) reading of the kanji. I think it should be changed to mushin no kokoro from mushin no shin since mushin no kokoro is more likely and more in line with standard japanese. Although, this is a very narrow topic on a very detailed part of martial-arts/buddhism so mushin no shin may be correct.

Could someone really qualified check on this?
