More specifically, may refer to work by Japanese Zen priests from the Edo period (1600-1868). The content of the work is focused on teachings of the Dharma. Aesthetically this style is known to be bold, spontaneous and even amateurish in execution and light-hearted in tone. The term literally means "Zen painting." For the practice of painting as a Zen activity, use "gazen." ]]></termNote><termCreatedDate>2026-03-30 20:28:03</termCreatedDate><relation><relationType>BT</relationType><termId>31307906</termId><termName>visual works by subject type</termName><termType>PT</termType></relation></term>  </Zthes>
