Mu --- The notion that mindfulness in action is created most fully and completely by mindfulness in sitting is, to paraphrase Alan Watts, a crypto-protestant fetish of the Soto school, as equally one sided as the attachment to koans of the Rinzai school.
There is also an esoteric conception of 'poverty' in which a 'poverty of the soul' is said to be a very *virtuous* thing, though I am less familiar with this presumably Christian teaching.

 Buddhism Portal Journey Into Buddhism Content

As for upekkha, equanimity, this has often been misunderstood as indifference, as apathy in the face of human pain, the very antithesis of compassion.
But upekkha is really freedom from the self-centredness which clouds understanding and destroys true discernment.

It may be be noted that the remains of pre-Vedic (Indus Valley Civilization) and Buddhist periods are found in Pakistan but not of the Hindu period which came between the two and again appeared to a limited extent after the fall of Buddhism.
These converted Muslims of Pakistan and Bangladesh stand as symbols of Islam's defiance of Hindu chauvinism; a colossal proof of Hindu failure to absorb and subdue Islam.
It was because of the hatred for the people of Pakistan that, as already stated, the Hindus never built any holy city or temple or regarded any river in Pakistan sacred.
