Resumo: This paper aims to investigate how Buddhism is related to science as a mechanism for legitimizing its meditative practices and worldview. The first part takes a historical review of the different moments that mark the dialogue between Buddhism and the scientific worldview in the Western sociocultural context. Then, the paper explores the narratives of various contemporary Buddhist leaders and personalities from the scientific field to identify the different argumentative modalities that support the compatibility between Buddhism and science. From this conceptual scheme, the last section of the article analyzes the stories of committed practitioners of Buddhist centers formed in Argentina in recent decades to investigate the modalities of reception and appropriation of this discourse.

La primera parte efectúa un recorrido histórico por los distintos momentos que jalonan el diálogo entre el budismo y la cosmovisión científica en el contexto sociocultural occidental. Luego, explora las narrativas de diversos líderes budistas contemporáneos y de personalidades del campo científico a fin de identificar las distintas modalidades argumentativas que postulan la compatibilidad entre el budismo y la ciencia. A partir de este esquema conceptual, la última sección se ocupa de analizar los relatos de practicantes comprometidos de centros budistas formados en la Argentina en las últimas décadas, con el propósito de indagar las modalidades de recepción y apropiación de este discurso.Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo2023-07-27info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/rever/article/view/58915REVER: Journal for the Study of Religion; Vol. 23 No. 1 (2023): Religion and humor; 229-246REVER: Revista de Estudos da Religião; v. 23 n. 1 (2023): Religião e humor; 229-2461677-122210.23925/1677-1222.2023vol23i1reponame:Rever (São Paulo.
