“In Japan we have the phrase, SHOSHIN, which means ‘beginner’s mind.’ This does not mean a closed mind, but actually an empty mind and a ready mind. If your mind is empty, it is always ready for anything. It is open to everything. In the beginner’s mind there are many possibilities; in the expert’s mind there are few.”
Shunryu Suzuki, in
Zen Mind, Beginner’s
Mind.
