Resumo: Bon Odori is a mortuary rite related to Japanese Buddhism that, held during the “Festival of the Deceased”, aims to allow the beings to transmigrate to different dimensions of Buddhist spheres. This paper intends to analyze the ritual connected to the Honpa Honganji Buddhist temple, located in Londrina (Paraná). As methodology, participant observations of Bon Odori were made in 2014 and interviews with the local Buddhist monk. From theoretical perspective, it is used the concepts of religious field and appropriation, suggested, respectively, by Pierre Bourdieu and Roger Chartier. From this, it is suggested that, although it is a mortuary rite, elements of “profane” universe, as well as distinct social actors, have been associated with Bon Odori. This change would be created by the need of this Buddhism, which remains in Brazil an ethnic religion, to develop strategies of proselytism that enable it to acquire new faithful, including outside the circle of Japanese immigrants and descendants, to its social reproduction.

Neste artigo, pretende-se analisar o ritual ligado ao templo budista Honpa Honganji, situado em Londrina (Paraná). Como metodologia, foram feitas observações participantes do Bon Odori no ano de 2014 e entrevistas com o monge budista local. Da perspectiva teórica, são utilizados os conceitos de campo religioso e apropriação, propostos, respectivamente, por Pierre Bourdieu e Roger Chartier. A partir disso, é sugerido que, embora constitua um rito mortuário, elementos do universo “profano”, bem como distintos atores sociais, teriam sido associados ao Bon Odori. Essa mudança seria gerada pela necessidade desse Budismo, que permanece no Brasil uma religião étnica, desenvolver estratégias de proselitismo que lhe permita angariar novos fiéis, inclusive fora do círculo de imigrantes japoneses e descendentes, para sua reprodução social.Universidade Estadual de Londrina2019-01-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://ojs.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/antiteses/article/view/3205310.5433/1984-3356.2018v11n22p795Antíteses; Vol. 11 No. 22 (2018): v.11, n.22, jul/dez 2018; 795-820Antíteses; v. 11 n. 22 (2018): v.11, n.22, jul/dez 2018; 795-8201984-3356reponame:Antítesesinstname:Universidade Estadual de Londrina (UEL)instacron:UELporhttps://ojs.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/antiteses/article/view/32053/25517Copyright (c) 2018 Antítesesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessLuiz, Leonardo HenriqueAndré, Richard Gonçalves2021-07-07T17:46:30Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/32053Revistahttps://www.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/antitesesPUBhttps://www.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/antiteses/oaiantiteses@uel.br||1984-33561984-3356opendoar:2021-07-07T17:46:30Antíteses - Universidade Estadual de Londrina (UEL)false
