«Afirmar que el universo es limitado es una herejÃa; afirmar que es ilimitado, también; afirmar que no es ni lo uno ni lo otro es asimismo herético.
El budismo ocupa un lugar central en el conjunto de la obra de Borges. La percepción del cosmos como un laberinto o una paradoja, la negación del Yo, el cuestionamiento a la concepción occidental del tiempo y la singular noción de que el mundo es una ficción y la realidad un sueño, entre otras ideas, cruzan los ensayos, cuentos y poemas del autor desde sus textos más tempranos y son la particular reformulación con fines literarios de algunos de los nodos centrales de esta doctrina. Escrito a partir de una serie de conferencias y publicado por primera vez en 1976, en colaboración con Alicia Jurado, Qué es el budismo es un fascinante recorrido a través de uno de los cultos más conocidos y más tergiversados del mundo desde los orÃgenes históricos del Buddha hasta las teorÃas de la reencarnación y una obra indispensable para completar el sentido del universo borgeano. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Claiming the universe is finite is heresy, as it is claiming the universe is infinite; claiming it is not one or the other is also heretic. Buddhism is front and center in Borges' collective works. The perception of cosmos as a labyrinth or a paradox, the denying of the self, questioning the Western conception of time, and the singular notion that the world is fiction and reality a dream, among other ideas, cross the author's essays, short stories, and poems since his earliest works, and they are a particular reformulation, with literary purposes, of some of the central nodes of this doctrine. Written from a series of lectures and first published in 1976, in collaboration with Alicia Jurado, What Is Buddhism? is a fascinating journey through one of the best-known and most-misinterpreted religions in the world, from Buddha's historical origins, to the theories of reincarnation. This is an essential book to complement the meaning of the Borgesian universe.
