Aimlessness or uncommittedness or wishlessness ( Sanskrit apraṇihita अप्रणिहित) is a form of concentration in some schools of Buddhist meditation. The concept is particularly associated with the teachings of Thích Nhất Hạnh, who counts aimlessness as the third form of concentration or "Third Door of Liberation". The term apraṇihita literally means 'to place nothing in front' and is used to designate someone who has no aims for the future and no desire for the objects of perception.
Aimlessness may refer to:
- The state or quality of being aimless, or without purpose or direction.
