**Satori**
Satori, a term that hails from the rich tapestry of Zen Buddhism, encapsulates the essence of sudden enlightenment or awakening.

In the cannabis world, Satori has taken on a new life as a strain renowned for its ability to deliver a clear, euphoric high, reminiscent of a spiritual awakening. This strain is particularly cherished for its capacity to enhance creativity and focus, offering users a unique blend of mental clarity and relaxation.

Satori (Japanese: 悟り) is a Japanese Buddhist term for "awakening", "comprehension; understanding". The word derives from the Japanese verb satoru.
In the Zen Buddhist tradition, satori refers to a deep experience of kenshō, "seeing into one's true nature". Ken means "seeing," shō means "nature" or "essence".
Satori and kenshō are commonly translated as "enlightenment", a word that is also used to translate bodhi, prajñā and Buddhahood.
