Opendhamma: Bridging Ancient Wisdom with Immersive Learning

Overview

Opendhamma is an open-source initiative dedicated to modernizing and actualizing the way dharmic teachings are presented. By making these teachings more accessible and engaging for the community while preserving their essential principles, we strive to bridge the gap between ancient wisdom and contemporary learning methodologies. The project leverages scientifically valid translations, AI imaginations, and digital learning experiences using AI-powered tools and immersive technologies. Our mission is to make the teachings of the Suttas, Abhidhamma, Visuddhimagga, and other essential Buddhist texts accessible to a global audience.
