Are they the same thing? Are there alternate terms for each?

Anybody out there? I have seen positions that look like fudoza in other budo.

Fudoza looks similar to tate hiza, but in fudoza the right knee is on the ground. Tate hiza, from what I have seen, which is not much, the right knee is up and off the ground.

I also forgot. I have seen a posture that looks like fudoza, but don't remember the name. I think this posture can be seen in either Sekiguchi Shin Shin ryu jujutsu or Shibukawa ryu jujutsu. I can't remember.
