Kishin is one of the 3 minds (along with Daishin and Roshin) that Zen Master Dogen wrote about in the Tenzo Kyokun. Shin means mind, while Ki can be used to mean energy or spirit. When combined, the result is understood to be"Joyful Mind".

There are also quite a few different possible meanings for the word 'kishin'. Some likely possibilities are:


  • 帰心 - homesickness
  • 鬼神 - fierce god; ghost; demon
  • 寄信 - sending a letter
  • 寄進 - contribution
  • 貴紳 - noble; aristocrat
