Abstract

This article aims to discuss the intersection between Performing Arts and Contemplative practices, especially meditation. In this direction I address concepts as mindfulness, meditation and Dharma art to present an introduction to this theme and questions I consider essential to approach it. Finally, I point out to the potential contributions this discussion can offer regarding performer’s training in a contemplative perspective.
