The term "fuke zen" is commonly used in Zen Buddhism to refer to the practice of blowing a bamboo flute, known as the shakuhachi. However, there are several synonyms for this term that highlight different aspects of the practice. One such term is "blowing zen," which emphasizes the meditative quality of playing the shakuhachi. Another synonym is "breath practice," which emphasizes the importance of proper breathing techniques in both playing the flute and in meditation. Still others refer to it as "sound meditation" or "flute meditation," emphasizing the connection between sound, mindfulness, and spiritual practice. Regardless of the term used, the practice of fuke zen remains a deeply meaningful and transformative practice for many practitioners.
