Resumo
Neste breve artigo, de sinal marcadamente indicativo, é nossa intenção ensaiar a aproximação
entre o Budismo, numa consideração genérica, e o pensamento e obra de Vergílio Ferreira em dois pontos ou gestos de ambos. Num primeiro, relevamos a posição, dizemo-la, principial, que ocupa, na doutrina e prática budistas, o autoconhecimento,
chave e vector, a par da mesma posição de tal conhecimento, seu valor e modo, no pensamento e obra vergilianos. Finalmente, comparamos o gesto que, no Budismo, considera o tecido (os cinco agregados ou khandhas) que responde pela insatisfação (dukkha)
da existência, e o valor libertador do seu reconhecimento efectivo, com a posição vergiliana,
notada numa noção que cremos crucial, a de interrogação, de distância, face à filosofia, e sua diversidade de programas ou sistemas de relação com o real, assim como, ultimamente, face à linguagem, à nomeação e determinação da realidade, tecida,
esta, ultimamente, de mistério.
We intend, by this brief article, of a distinctively indicative sign, to contribute to an approach between Buddhism, in a generic consideration, and the thought and work of Vergílio Ferreira, on two questions or gestures of thought. In a first one, we bring into prominence the position, we say it, principial, occupied, in the doctrine and Buddhist practice, by the self-knowledge, key and vector, along with the position of such knowledge, his value and way, in Vergílio’s thought and work. Finally, we compare the gesture that, in Buddhism, considers the texttissue (the five aggregates or khandhas) which answers for the ‘unsatisfactoriness’ (dukkha) of existence, and the liberating value of his effective recognition, with Vergílio’s position of distance, read on a notion that we believe crucial – ‘interrogation’ –, with regard to philosophy, and his diversity of programs or systems of relation with the reality, as well as, ultimately, regarding language itself, the designation and determination of reality, this one woven, ultimately, of mystery.
