Zen
Zen. The Japanese pronunciation of the Chinese word ‘
Ch'an’, meaning ‘
meditation’. This word stands not only for a particular religious technique, but is an umbrella term for the various schools of
zen in
Japan:
Rinzai,
Sōtō,
Ōbaku, and
Fuke. Besides specific reference to the above-named Japanese schools (and their American and European derivatives), the term is also used to cover the entire tradition from which Japanese Zen arose in
China, and all of the other derivatives of Ch'an in other countries such as
Sŏn in
Korea.
