Resumo: This paper aims to present a brief inventory of the primary meanings that Hindu dharma assumes in Vālmīki’s Rāmāyaṇa epic. A survey of the meanings of the word dharma in the text (saṃhitā) of the epic is followed by an explanation and elucidation not only of the word itself but of the terms composed by it according to the contexts in which they appear, with passages that illustrate each of these same meanings. A significant semantic elasticity is clearly perceived in the uses that Vālmīki’s Rāmāyaṇa makes of Hindu dharma, ranging from Vedic existential aspirations to different modalities of everyday praxis of Hindu orthodoxy, as well as processes of personification and abstract references to cosmological principles.

Um levantamento dos sentidos da palavra dharma no texto (saṃhitā) do épico é seguido pela explicação e elucidação não apenas do vocábulo em si, mas dos termos compostos pelo mesmo segundo os contextos em que aparecem, com trechos que ilustrem cada um destes mesmos sentidos. Percebe-se nitidamente uma elasticidade semântica significativa nos usos que o Rāmāyaṇa de Vālmīki faz do dharma hindu, contemplando desde aspirações existenciais védicas até diferentes modalidades de práxis cotidiana da ortodoxia hindu, além de processos de personificação e referências abstratas a princípios cosmológicos.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/5874110.23925/1677-1222.2023vol23i1a16REVER: Journal for the Study of Religion; Vol. 23 No. 1 (2023): Religion and humor; 265-282REVER: Revista de Estudos da Religião; v. 23 n. 1 (2023): Religião e humor; 265-2821677-122210.23925/1677-1222.2023vol23i1reponame:Rever (São Paulo.
