The shakuhachi (尺八、しゃくはち, pronounced [ɕakɯhatɕi]) is a
Japanese end-blown flute. It was originally introduced from China into Japan
in the 6th century and underwent a resurgence in the early Edo Period. The
oldest shakuhachi in Japan is currently stored in Shōsō-in, Nara. The
shakuhachi is traditionally made of bamboo, but versions now exist in ABS
and hardwoods. It was used by the monks of the Fuke sect of Zen Buddhism in
the practice of suizen (吹禅, blowing meditation).
