sinazen  Sina 支那  Zen 禅

Sina means China in a number of languages; 支那unfortunately used to be employed derogatively, especially in Japan, and sina remains ambiguous in status. Today it is more commonly known as the name of a widely subscribed Chinese web portal. . Zen禅 is a branch of buddhism with the main tenet that each person is to seek enlightenment through meditation 

(I am not a follower of any religion. The following is just a poetic expression, not belief.)

绿丝红粉铅华浓， 若水桑林苦海深。

千年面壁修正果， 一日悟思脱肉身。
