Since there are different kinds of meditation, the Japanese, like us, have different words for the different kinds. Perhaps the word you are thinking of is "zazen," which is the Japanese term for the distinctive kind of meditation practiced in Zen Buddhism (which is called "ch'an" in China and "son" in Korea).
