Ancestralidade indígena e epistemologia budista da vacuidade

Abstract

After justifying agnosticism as a good philosophical position in intercultural research, which respects the epistemological believes and the methodological ways of the other, the author, with the thinkers of decoloniality of knowledge, valorizes the indigenous knowledge as a scientific one and studies the similitude and difference between Euro-descendent and native science, in a dialogical, intercultural and critical view. The use of ayahuasca as a doctor-plant required an epistemological rupture in the native cognitive world. But, beyond the interculturality, with mutual respect to the epistemological fundaments of the other, exists in the Buddhist philosophy of Nâgârjuna the basis for a transcultural epistemology of vacuity, larger than the regional Euro or American-descendent epistemologies, that the author articulates with sociopoetics that created and the research of Simondon, Deleuze e Guattari.
