- For
- Buddhist priests exploring AI and Buddhist-study beginners
- Worth noticing
- The free Discord community crosses sect lines; its sermon-preparation course presents AI as a thinking partner rather than an automatic writer.
Field notes
The page links four App Store apps, including 21-day Tannisho study and a 30-lecture introduction to Kyogyoshinsho, with furigana, explanations, diagrams, quizzes, and learning records described. Its free seven-day email course is organized around using AI to clarify a priest’s thinking rather than generate a sermon wholesale. The site also lists podcasts, video, and a column based on podcast transcripts.
