Zafu

A zafu ((日本語:座蒲)) or putuan () is a round cushion. Although also a utilitarian accessory, it is most well known for its use in zazen Zen meditation.〔(Zen Meditation Instructions )〕
==Name==
Although ''zafu'' is often translated as "sewn seat" in American English, the meaning of the Japanese kanji, 座蒲, is different. ''Za'' (座) means "seat", and ''fu'' (蒲) means reedmace or cattail (''Typha'' spp.). A ''zafu'' is a seat stuffed with the fluffy, soft, downy fibres of the disintegrating reedmace seed heads. The Japanese zafu originates in China, where these meditation seats were originally filled with reedmace down.
The words ''zabuton'', ''zafuton'' and ''futon'' are closely linked. The word ''zazen'' meaning "seated meditation" or "sitting meditation" is also closely linked. In western terms, colloquially speaking, ''zafu'' refers to a meditation cushion, and ''zabuton'' refers to the cushioned mat upon which a zafu is placed.
