Course Inspiration
This project is inspired by HarvardX's Buddhism Through Its Scriptures and its attention to how Buddhist texts are read, practiced, interpreted, and lived.
Sources & Ethics
Careful sources, respectful use.
Buddhist scriptures, chants, and practices belong to living traditions. This project should be clear about what is educational, what is sourced, and what should be approached with humility.
Text Sources
Text examples should come from reliable translations, public domain sources, libraries, course materials, or sources with clear permission for educational use.
Audio Sources
Audio examples should be credited clearly. Traditional chants, temple recordings, teacher recordings, and student-created demos should not be mixed together without explanation.
AI Use Statement
AI may be used to create draft explanations, pronunciation demos, and study prompts. AI output should be checked against trusted sources before being presented as factual or traditional.
