On Tuesday, July 22 at 2 p.m. ET, join mindfulness teacher Shinzen Young in a discussion on connection and right speech with the help of AI in an increasingly divided world. Can AI lay the groundwork for more productive and compassionate discourse? What are the potential benefits of integrating AI into practice and everyday life for Buddhists? How can we remain embodied in an increasingly disembodied world? Explore these questions and more with author, longtime meditation teacher, and former Shingon Buddhist monk Shinzen Young in conversation with Tricycle’s executive editor, Phil Ryan.
