This Japanese Kanji is "Setsuna".
Setsuna is a Japanese word meaning "A moment(shunkan); an instant(isshun)".
The word came from a Buddhist term:Setsuna meaning "split second," which was imported from China (in kanji format: Setsuna) but originated in India.
It is also a given name meaning "calm snow."
Compared to shunkan and isshun, setsuna is a more poetic word with a deeper and more Japanese meaning.
All three words are correct translations for both "moment" and "instant (in time)".
