ZEN: A school of Mahayana Buddhism that
asserts that enlightenment can be attained
through meditation, self-contemplation, and
intuition rather than through faith and
devotion and that is practiced mainly in
China, Japan, Korea, and Vietnam. Also
called Zen Buddhism.

Word History: It is hard to believe that a word
as Asian as Zen is ultimately an Indo-
European word. Zen, which has been in
English since 1727, is the Japanese
pronunciation of Chinese chán, “quietude.”
Chán comes from Pali jhna, from Sanskrit
dhynam, “meditation,” from the Sanskrit root
dhy-, dh-, “to see, observe.” The Indo-
European root behind the Sanskrit is *dhei-,
*dhy-, “to see, look at.” This root also shows
up in Greek, where *dhy- developed into s-,
as in Common Greek *sma, “sign,
distinguishing mark.” This became sma in
Attic Greek, the source of English semantic.

Sanskritic Language: (Hinduism)
an ancient language of India (the
language of the Vedas and of
Hinduism); an official language of
India although it is now used only for
religious purposes.
Word History: Like Latin in
Europe and elsewhere, Sanskrit has
been used by the educated classes in
India for literary and religious
purposes for over two thousand years.
It achieved this status partly through
a standardization that resulted from
a long tradition of grammatical
theory and analysis. This tradition
reached its height around 500 B.C.
in the work of the grammarian
Panini, who composed an intricate
and complex description of the
language in the form of quasi-
mathematical rules reminiscent of the
rules of generative grammar in
modern times. The language thus
codified was called sasktam, “put
together, artificial,” to distinguish it
from prktam or the “natural, vulgar”
speech of ordinary people. Sanskrit
thus became a fixed literary
language, while Prakrit continued to
develop into what are now the modern
spoken languages of northern and
central India, such as Hindi and
Bengali.

"The Human Being"
A human being is a part of the whole, called
by us the "Universe," a part limited in time
and space. He experiences himself, his
thoughts and feelings as something
separated from the rest - a kind of optical
delusion of his consciousness. This
delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting
us to our personal desires and to affection
for a few persons nearest to us. Our task
must be to free ourselves from this prison by
widening our circle of compassion to
embrace all living creatures and the whole of
nature in its beauty. Nobody is able to
achieve this completely, but the striving for
such achievement is in itself a part of the
liberation and a foundation for inner security.
Albert Einstein, quoted in H Eves
Mathematical Circles Adieu (Boston 1977).
