Este trabalho propõe-se a lançar um olhar sobre o ver em Thomas Merton ao deixar-se tocar pela espiritualidade Zen budista na sua trajetória cristã. O eixo central desta tese será, portanto, o foco na sua via mística em comunhão com a natureza. A rigorosa tradição monástica Zen e o monasticismo trapista da Ordem Cisterciense assemelham-se na rígida disciplina de sua vida cotidiana. A criação para Merton está associada à visão de sacralidade, sendo que este amor é compartilhado pela perspectiva do Zen Budismo, no qual Natureza/Despertar são inseparáveis. A sede de Deus e de aprendizado levou o monge a uma peregrinação pelo continente asiático. Na sua busca da grande compaixão, ele encontrou o outro lado da montanha e viveu experiências místicas definitivas em sítios sagrados da Ásia.
This study proposes one sharp “looking” at Thomas Merton’s “seeing” considering how he let himself to be touched by the Zen Buddhist spirituality on his Christian journey. The axis of this thesis will be, therefore, to promote a focus on his mystic life lived in a great communion with the nature. The strict Zen monastic tradition and the trapist monasticism of the Cisters are really alike on their rigid disciplines taken seriously for the everyday living by the monks. The Creation in accordance with Merton’s thoughts is extremely associated with the vision of sacrality, furthermore the divine love is shared through a Zen perspective where nature/ to awake are inseparable. Thirsty of God and learning he has done a pilgrimage around the eastern continent and on his search for the great compassion he finally found the “other side of the mountain”, or in another words: he has lived many remarkable mystic experiences indeed while visiting some Asian sacred places.

Full textThis thesis seeks to illustrate how Thomas Merton's life, spiritual journey, work and understanding of Zen is still relevant to contemporary religious challenges. Thomas Merton, the Trappist monk, had a unique spiritual journey with the ability to be open to new experiences and to embrace the good in other religions. Today in our global village, we live and work among people who practise religion differently to what we might think and do.

O trabalho propõe-se a aprofundar o tema da vida contemplativa em Thomas Merton, reconhecendo que a categoria contemplação, mais do que um tema foi um eixo em torno do qual girou toda a sua obra. A tese central é a de que Merton reinaugura um caminho místico e contemplativo de busca e encontro com Deus no tempo e na história. A Realidade divina e a realidade humana como realidades convergentes. Na primeira parte abordou-se o tema da contemplação como experiência de plenitude de vida em três direções: a relação contemplação, escrita e vida; mediações da contemplação; lugares privilegiados da experiência contemplativa. Na segunda parte abordou-se a perspectiva da contemplação no tempo e na história, assim direcionados: o tempo de Merton; seu diálogo com a cultura, a sociedade e a teologia; a relação contemplação e compaixão; e, por fim, a relação contemplação e ação profética, aprofundando sobre temáticas sociais. Assim, entende-se que na mística cristã, contemplação e ação, transcendência e imanência são realidades interdependentes. Nesse sentido, o itinerarium de Thomas Merton é dos mais expressivos, ao traduzir uma ideia de contemplação não como fuga do mundo e sim como experiência no tempo.
The work intends to deep the contemplative life in Thomas Merton, recognizing the contemplation category like one focal theme around that all his work turned. The central thesis is that Merton re-inaugurates a mystical and contemplative path of search and meet with God in times and history. The divine Reality and de human reality like convergences realities. The first part discusses the subject of contemplation like a plenty life experience in three directions: contemplation, write and life relationships; contemplation mediations; privileged places of contemplation. The second part discusses a perspective of contemplation in times and history, thus structured: the Merton‟s time; his dialogue with culture, society and theology; contemplation and compassion relationship; and, finally, contemplation and prophetic action relationship, deeping about social themes. Thus, the research understands that Christian mystic, contemplations and action, transcendency and imannency, are interdependent realities. In that sense, the Thomas Merton itinerarium it‟s one of more expressive, since the contemplation ideia is understands no like escape of world but like experience in times.

Este trabalho se propõe a pesquisar a sensibilidade para o diálogo inter-religioso em Thomas Merton a partir de sua experiência monástica de solidão, silêncio, contemplação e compaixão. Tenta refazer seu percurso na perspectiva dialogal e compreender a atração que as religiões orientais exerceram sobre ele, dando ênfase ao Sufismo, Taoísmo e Zen Budismo. Aborda as reflexões teóricas e sua vivência no campo do diálogo ainda dentro do mosteiro, que culminaram com sua viagem à Ásia, onde o monge trapista encontrou-se com grandes mestres espirituais do Oriente, fazendo então, a conexão entre o pensamento cristão e o budista. Esta pesquisa teve como objetivo dar uma visão panorâmica dos fatores internos e externos que contribuíram para o diálogo em Merton ao longo de sua jornada. Na sua interpretação, tanto aprofundar-se na própria religião quanto buscar conhecimento em outras crenças, são importantes para que os interlocutores do diálogo possam chegar a uma autêntica experiência de troca, de partilha e de fortalecimento da fé. O diálogo teria como meta alcançar um nível mais profundo de comunicação, que Merton denominou comunhão, sem, contudo, perder a singularidade inerente a cada tradição religiosa.
This one aims to search for the sensibility of the inter religious dialogue in Thomas Merton from his monastic experience of solitude, silence, contemplation as well as compassion. It tries to rebuild his way under a dialogal perspective, and, also, understand the attraction which the Eastern Religions exerted on him, emphasizing the Sufism, Taoism and Zen Buddhist. It goes around the theoretical reflections besides his experiences over the dialogue field yet inside the monastery, which culminate with his trip to Asia where the trappist monk met great Eastern spiritual masters, so that, he found out the conection between the buddhist and christian thoughts. This search got as a target giving an open wide panoramic view of inside and outside factors that contributed to the dialogue in Merton along his journey. Under his interpretation both getting into his own religion and searching knowledge in other belief, they are important for the speakers of the dialogue may get to an authentic partition, sharing experience and a deep stronger faith as well. The dialogue would aim to reach for a higher level of communication, which Merton named communion, however, without losing its singularity inherent to every religious tradition.
