Budismo Zen

Budismo Zen

A form of Buddhism that reached its zenith in China and later developed in Japan, Korea, and the West; its name (Chinese Ch'an, Japanese Zen) derives from the Sanskrit dhyana (meditation). In early China, the central tenet of Zen Buddhism was meditation rather than adherence to a particular scripture.
