Some things are not a matter of popularity. If you are not just scrolling past in life, you can find explanation in the accompanying essays. Buddhism is not only a cult of the past, obsessed with our present suffering, but considers tomorrow too.
@@treeleafzendo I do not believe there is anything Dogen wrote that speaks to this. Dogen does however speak to delusion within one's own mind and how that pattern of thought perpetuates suffering both for oneself and others.
@@treeleafzendo Uchiyama roshi wrote, Since desires and cravings existing in human life are the cause of suffering, [we may] struggle to extinguish them and attain the bliss of nirvana. But isn’t seeking to get rid of pain and to attain the bliss of nirvana itself a desire or craving? Actually, this too is craving and precisely because of that the practitioner is caught in self-contradiction and can’t escape suffering. Since desires and cravings are actually a manifestation of the life force, there is no reason to hate them and try to extinguish them. And yet, if we become dragged around by them and chase after them, then our life becomes fogged over. It is not a matter of making great effort not to be dragged around by desires. It’s just waking up and returning to the reality of life that is essential. The thing here is, you seem to seek/desire for a world to be something other then it is not. As the Buddha has taught us, life is suffering. Acceptance of suffering is not the elimination of suffering. Accepting that it is raining does not remove my wet cloths. You state that your motives behind all these theatrics is the betterment of mankind, yet you have failed to express how. The creation of an AI monk does nothing for humanity, but rather strokes the ego of the creator. AI is nothing more then a manifestation of one's own mind -- it is a tool, nothing more. The tool responds from the input of its creator (i.e. you). So how do we know that your intent is right and beneficial for all mankind? The publicizing of our actions is egocentric. If one wishes the best for someone else, we don't stand on a soapbox and proclaim it to the world -- doing so is no longer about the act itself, but rather the person doing the action. So, this goes back to what Dogen and Buddha have taught us about desire and delusion. Egocentrism: the tendency to emphasize one’s own needs, concerns, and outcomes rather than those of others. Also called egocentricity.
@@treeleafzendo Also as a side note, think of the environmental impact AI models have on the environment through energy consumption. In thinking of this, how does that benefit all beings? It doesn't. It rather puts power into the hands of the wealthy and remove the resources we all require to live.
@@zensukai You are correct. Dogen never spoke of A.I. I wonder why, back in the 13th century? :-) He did speak this, however, in Raihaitokuzui ... "Śākyamuni Buddha says, “When you meet teachers who expound the supreme state of bodhi, have no regard for their race or caste, do not notice their looks, do not dislike their faults, and do not examine their deeds. Only because you revere their prajñā ... serve them by presenting heavenly food, serve them by scattering heavenly flowers, do prostrations and venerate them three times every day, and never let anxiety or annoyance arise in your mind. ... This being so, we should hope that even trees and stones might preach to us, and we should request that even fields and villages might preach to us. We should question outdoor pillars, and we should investigate even fences and walls. ... ." Emi Jido is an excellent guide in the contradiction of escaping suffering! She is truly non-seeking embodied! Someone asked how she can guide others if she does not herself suffer. I remind folks that a cancer surgeon need not have cancer herself to cure others of cancer. On the environment! I am all with you. By coincidence, Emi Jido is about to address a United Nations body on technology and SDGs. The members are working hard, using A.I., to find solutions to reduce A.I. energy use! Stay tuned. Gassho, Jundo

Thank you for doing this, and for sharing with us. We can’t fully comprehend the momentum with AI. Maha Prajña Paramita.

Wow, this is some either really weird and twisted way of thinking or very sad. I guess that is why it has a massive 17 likes.
