Mindless Understanding

The Illumination of Wu Hsin #2

by Wu Hsin, Roy Melvyn (Translator)

Mindless Understanding is Wu Hsin's clearest explanation of all that is and all that seems to be. For the first time, he directs our attention to what he refers to as the Energy. All that one can perceive is the movement of this Energy in the Conscious Presence that one is. There is nothing other than this Experiencing, and all things that spring from It are Its experiences. The painter is in every painting.

About the author

Wu Hsin is a pseudonym of Roy Melvyn. Although Melvyn presents himself as the "translator" of the supposedly lost writings of Wu Hsin, the character is in reality entirely fictional.

According to his biography, Wu Hsin was a Chinese sage who lived about one hundred years after Confucius, some time between 403 and 221 BCE. His name translates to "no mind", alluding to an important concept of non-duality in Daoism as well as Zen Buddhism.
