Chapter 3 connects the challenges of a spiritually engaged cultural studies with the methodological reorientations developing within the field of religious studies to redefine its work as a multiperspectival and polymethodical form of cultural studies. This move to open up channels of dialogue and research on ‘religion’ is taking shape in the emergent discourse called Buddhist critical-constructive reflection. Much like cultural studies work, Buddhist critical-constructive reflection is committed to always being mindful of the role of the subject in its own discourse. Hence, this chapter interweaves personal reflections with historical analysis to contextualise this authoring-I’s experience as a postcolonial ‘Western Buddhist’ convert
