20.500.12556/DiRROS-18924 From respiration to fleshpiration a Merleau-Pontian journey into respiratory philosophy and respiratory religion with Jesus, St. Paul, Claudel, and Merleau-Ponty Od respiracije do »telospiracije«: merleau-pontyjevsko popotovanje po respiratorni filozofiji in respiratorni religiji z Jezusom, svetim Pavlom, Claudelom in Merleau-Pontyjem In this article, I introduce a new word, the neologism “fleshpiration.” It is a word or a name in which I intertwine “flesh” and “spirit” or “spiration.” This new word is inspired by the thinking of Jesus, St. Paul, Paul Claudel, and Maurice Merleau-Ponty. The interpretative starting point of my article is taken from Clau-del, who states: “the spirit is respiration.” With Claudel’s idea, which has its roots in the etymological analysis of pneuma and spiritus, I interpret the spirit (pneuma) of Jesus and St. Paul to mean respiration in the first place. Within this respira-tory interpretative context, I suggest that both Jesus and St. Paul emphasised the essentiality of breathing in their religious thinking. For St. Paul, life according to the flesh and life according to the Spirit as life according to the Respiration are opposite lifestyles. Within the context of Merleau-Ponty, it can be said that St. Paul’s dichotomy between the flesh and the Spirit can be challenged and surpassed. For Merleau-Ponty, the flesh and the Spirit can be intertwined in a paradoxical manner. Within this framework of paradoxical thinking, it becomes possible to discover this new word “fleshpiration” and initially claim that it names a new res-piratory beginning for philosophy and religion. V prispevku uvajam neologizem »telospiracija« (ang. fleshpiration), novo be-sedo oziroma poimenovanje, v katerem sem prepletel »telo« (ang. flesh) in »duha« oziroma »dah(njenje)/dih« (ang. spiration). To novotvorjenko je navdahnilo raz-mišljanje o Jezusu, svetem Pavlu, Paulu Claudelu in Mauriceu Merleau-Pontyju. Za interpretativno izhodišče članka sem vzel Claudelovo izjavo »duh je dihanje«. Skozi to Claudelovo idejo, ki izhaja iz etimološke analize besed pneuma in spiritus, interpretiram duha (pneuma) pri Jezusu in svetem Pavlu prvenstveno v pomenu dihanja. V tem respiratorno-interpretativnem okviru zagovarjam tezo, da sta tako Jezus kot sveti Pavel v svoji religijski misli poudarjala bistvenost dihanja. Za sve-tega Pavla sta si življenje po telesu in življenje po duhu kot življenje po dih(anj)u nasprotna načina življenja, v kontekstu Merleau-Pontyja pa lahko rečemo, da je dihotomijo svetega Pavla med telesom in duhom mogoče izpodbijati in preseči. Po Merleau-Pontyjevem mnenju se telo in duh lahko paradoksalno prepletata. V okviru takega paradoksalnega mišljenja je mogoče najti predstavljeni neologizem »telospiracija« in ga opredeliti kot nov, respiratorni začetek za filozofijo in religijo.
