/ˈkɪnˌhɪn/

Origin: A borrowing from Japanese. Etymon: Japanese kinhin.

Etymology: < Japanese kinhin (13th cent.) < Middle Chinese (compare Chinese jīngxíng, literally ‘circumambulation’).Compare the earlier Japanese kyōgyō , denoting a similar practice, accompanied by the chanting of sutra texts (9th cent.; written with the same kanji and borrowed < the same Middle Chinese compound, at an earlier stage of the language); the first elements of the Chinese and Japanese compounds are also used in Buddhist contexts to translate Sanskrit sutra sutra n.

Chiefly in Zen Buddhism: the practice of walking meditation, esp. between periods of zazen or sitting meditation; (also) an instance of this. Cf. walking meditation n.
