FAVELA BUSTILLO, Tania. The Harmony of Becoming: Zen and Poetry in the work of Juan L. Ortiz. Acta poét [online]. 2014, vol.35, n.2, pp.35-49. ISSN 2448-735X.
I am exploring in this essay the relation in Argentinian poet Juan L. Ortiz's poetry, between the poetic experience and the zen philosophy of enlightenment or satori. Through the contemplation of the landscape in his everyday fatherland, Juan L. Ortiz reaches consciousness in which he perceives the wonder of one being one with everything. Renouncement of one's self, attention to the smallest of things, acceptance of the void as basis of our existence, take him to see love as the only answer to recover harmony. Ortiz's poetry gives then the possibility to enter, through language, to that harmony he so aspires. An important axis in this essay is to present how Ortiz's language succeeds to configure within itself that experience, how he buildsup a language which he himself denominated "transparent", and how this language contains within itself the harmony of becoming.
