Religion, traditional Bóe-Bororo education and indigenous schooling

analysis from the transpermanence method

Abstract

This text focuses on the transpermanences that have been taking place in the Bóe-Bororo religion and religiosity. The communities of the Korogedo Páru and Tadarimana indigenous villages, located in Mato Grosso, between 1990 and 2020 were studied. The problem concerns an existing generational tension, whose chosen focus was on indigenous religion and religiosity with the involvement of ethnic and interethnic educations. The purpose is to describe the mutations and permanences in the Bóe-Bororo Way of Existing, which are bringing forth such tensions. The study sought to identify, understand and analyze them in the current historical context. The methodology used was the ethno-historical and anthropological approach called transpermanence. Bibliographical testimonies and consultations were used as research instruments. The result allowed the analysis of the ethnic and interethnic educational process, since the essence of the cosmology of that ethnic group resides in the bakárus. From the bakárus emanate their social organization and ideology, as well as the religiosity and ethnic education of the Bóe-Bororo.
