FAVELA BUSTILLO, Tania. Entering and sitting at the navel of the world /or Zen strokes in Hugo Padeletti's poetic. Valenciana [online]. 2021, vol.14, n.28, pp.257-273.  Epub Oct 18, 2021. ISSN 2007-2538.  https://doi.org/10.15174/rv.v13i28.598.

In the present article my proposal is to point out the relation between Hugo Padeletti´s (Alcorta, Argentina, 1928- 2018) poetic and Zen Buddhism, taking in account the art of tea and zazen (Soto school of concentration by sitting down). The axis of the discussion will be centered in two simple actions that bring us to a conception of the world and human beings: entering a room and sitting down. What this two-actions imply in Zen Buddhism´s perspective? And what is their purpose in the padelettian poetic? Following some traces of “serene contemplation” and Zen aesthetics, will allow to show a part of Padeletti´s journey that with intuition and intelligence he undertook, towards what he called his secular way to interior realization.

Keywords : Poetry; Zen; intuition; Argentina.
