Zen

Zen, a term coming from zen Buddhism (the word itself from dhyana, meaning meditation), means emphasis on mediation that leads to enlightenment; in a wider sense it hints on related things and feelings such as tranquility, spiritual peace, sudden coming to realization and understanding. In hacker speech zen is a very frequent term, according to Jargon file "to zen" means to understand something by simply meditating about it or by sudden realization (as opposed to e.g. active trial and error).
