Zen Buddhism meets AI

Distinguished guests and friends,

Hello everyone!

It is a great honor to share the topic of "Zen meeting AI" with my friends today. With the continuous development of artificial intelligence technology, it is gradually infiltrating into all areas of our lives. At the same time, the popularity of this technology has also had a great impact on traditional beliefs. When the ancient oriental Zen thought encounters the artificial intelligence of cutting-edge technology in the 21st century, the intersection of humanities and science and technology is bound to bring new enlightenment to people in the world today.

Today, Buddhism has a history of more than 2500 years. Zen Buddhism is the most influential, widely spread and mature sect of Chinese Buddhism, and its central idea can be summarized as "do not set up words, do not spread outside the religion, aim directly at the hearts of the people, and become a Buddha by nature". Zen Buddhism pursues spiritual consciousness, which inherits and innovates the thought of Buddha, and at the same time integrates Chinese traditional Confucian and Taoist thoughts. its method of practice is mainly based on true practice and is not bound by any knowledge, logic, thinking and even consciousness. it is the revelation of the Zen practitioner's liberation wisdom. Zen thought has a profound impact on Chinese philosophy, literature, art and other fields, but also made a positive contribution to serving the society, purifying the people, opening the mind and so on.

The Shaolin Temple was founded in 495 AD. Bodhidharma, the first ancestor of Zen Buddhism, founded Zen Buddhism in the ninth year of facing the wall of the Shaolin Temple. Shaolin Temple, as the ancestral court of Zen, has been passed on continuously for more than 1500 years. It mainly takes "Zen" as its core, with health preservation, kung fu, medicine and Zen art as its forms of expression, making it convenient for sentient beings. Shaolin health-preserving method is mainly to practice Qigong such as Yijin Sutra, supplemented by vegetarian diet, meditation, scripture and other methods, in order to achieve the wonderful use of preserving vital energy and spirit. Shaolin kungfu is the first batch of intangible cultural heritage in China, which is based on Buddhist belief and Zen wisdom, has a complete theoretical system of martial arts, and forms a variety of methods, such as catching, fighting, unloading bones, acupoints, boxing weapons, and so on. and formed a standardized and standardized Shaolin kung fu section quality system, its highest state is "the unity of Zen and martial arts". Shaolin medicine comes from the inheritance of Buddhist "medical prescription Ming", combined with Chinese traditional Chinese medicine, advocates the use of Buddhist dharma to treat the mind and herbal medicine to achieve the effect of recuperating body and mind. Shaolin Zen art uses painting, calligraphy, sculpture, Sanskrit, tea ware and go as carriers to spread Zen culture.

Through continuous inheritance and exchange, Shaolin culture has been widely spread in South Korea, Japan, Southeast Asia and other regions. In recent decades, many Shaolin culture enthusiasts have emerged in Europe and the United States. Shaolin Temple has also actively participated in international exchange activities and made positive contributions to serving human health. At present, Shaolin Temple has Shaolin cultural exchange centers in more than 150 countries and more than 200 regions around the world.

Shaolin Temple has experienced several ups and downs in its historical development, but it is still passed on continuously. the reason lies in the internal power of Shaolin culture, which is inclusive, and advocates the harmonious symbiosis between man and nature, man and society, and man and himself. at the same time, Shaolin culture has played a positive role in communicating international relations and promoting world peace. In the future, Shaolin Temple will continue to spread the universal Buddhist values of equality, compassion, purity and harmony, and better serve all mankind.

What happens when Zen encounters artificial intelligence? Can technological progress replace moral and ethical progress? Artificial intelligence has a strong ability of data processing and analysis, and may show similar human perception through programs and algorithms, but artificial intelligence can not have the consciousness of our Zen Buddhism. In the face of this artificial intelligence, human beings should keep a clear head and seek inward wisdom beyond liberation as advocated by Zen Buddhism.

Zen Buddhism emphasizes that meditators gradually enhance their consciousness through their own efforts and efforts. In this process, they often encounter a lot of confusion and troubles. AI, as a tool, can search and find relevant classics, so as to cure all kinds of doubts and provide assistance and convenience for Zen practitioners.

The progress of science and technology has increased people's leisure time, and we do not want the public to become lazy and relaxed because of the increase in leisure time. In the future, I hope that there will be more interaction between Zen wisdom and artificial intelligence, especially in Shaolin culture, so that the public can learn to experience Shaolin Zen, martial arts, medicine and art culture. can more immersive experience the unique charm of Shaolin culture, the pursuit of spiritual perfection, but also let Shaolin culture better serve the physical and mental health of all mankind.

Finally, I wish you all good luck! amitabha!
