About the Book

The Hsin Hsin Ming, attributed to Seng-ts'an, the Third Patriarch of Zen, is a timeless guide to the heart of Zen philosophy. Written in the 6th century, its verses cut through the complexities of thought and belief, pointing directly to the simplicity of being. This text does not offer doctrines to follow or goals to achieve-it invites the reader to rest in the natural flow of existence, free from judgment, preferences, and attachment. The teachings of Hsin Hsin Ming revolve around the core principle of non-duality-the insight that reality is not divided into opposing forces. By transcending distinctions between love and hate, good and bad, self and other, one moves beyond the mind's restless grasping and enters a state of profound peace. The essence of the text is simple yet radical: stop clinging, stop resisting, and the truth reveals itself effortlessly. At its heart, this work emphasizes that the mind's constant preferences create division. By rejecting one thing and accepting another, the mind fabricates an artificial duality that obscures the inherent oneness of all things. When this duality dissolves, a deeper reality emerges-one that is beyond words, beyond concepts, and beyond the restless movement of thought itself. The text suggests that the greatest barrier to truth is our own mental conditioning-the beliefs and judgments we cling to without question. A recurring theme in Hsin Hsin Ming is the notion that truth cannot be sought, because seeking itself implies a separation from what already is. The more one strives to attain the truth, the more distant it becomes. Instead of seeking, the text urges us to let go-of opinions, desires, and conceptual frameworks-and allow reality to reveal itself in its natural, uncontrived state. In this letting go, the distinctions between subject and object, self and other, dissolve effortlessly. Another profound insight the text offers is the immediacy of transformation. Awakening is not a gradual process-it occurs in an instant when the mind drops all clinging and opposition. This message aligns with the sudden enlightenment teachings of Zen, which assert that realization is always available in the present moment, beyond time and effort. This book offers a structured exploration of the Hsin Hsin Ming, unpacking its meaning in a contemporary context while preserving the profound stillness at its core. Each chapter reflects on a key theme from the text, guiding the reader toward an experiential understanding rather than mere intellectual knowledge. Through these teachings, the reader is invited to move beyond thought and language, beyond duality and opposition, into the silent, ever-present reality of suchness-the way things truly are. Whether you are a seasoned practitioner or encountering Zen for the first time, the Hsin Hsin Ming offers a luminous map to the essence of being. It reminds us that the way is not found through effort, but through allowing what is. When the restless mind quiets, the truth that has always been present reveals itself without obstruction. May these teachings serve as a mirror, reflecting the unchanging reality already present within you. In the words of Seng-ts'an: When thought-objects vanish, the thinking-subject vanishes-this is true liberation.
