About AI Dharma Mentor · Buddhist Canon

This site is an online reading room for the Chinese Buddhist Canon, with AI assistance for understanding it. The texts come from CBETA and Dharma Drum Institute of Liberal Arts, covering the Taishō Tripiṭaka, the Xuzangjing and more — 23 divisions and over four thousand works.

The goal is to make the canon easy to open. Without knowing a canon number you can browse from Āgama, Jātaka, Prajñā, Lotus, Huayan, Vinaya and Abhidharma to the Esoteric division, or search by title, number or phrase, then read fascicle by fascicle. The reader offers an AI translation aligned paragraph by paragraph, plus text size and line spacing controls. On the home page, the AI Dharma Mentor answers life questions from the meaning of the canon and names its sources.

This site is a reading and search interface only; it does not alter the original texts. AI translations and mentor replies are generated by AI and offered for study. For academic citation, please verify against CBETA source data or a printed edition.
