Reseña del libro "Digital Dharma: AI and the Evolution of Spirituality (en Inglés)"
Is technology deepening our inner lives, or quietly replacing them? Millions of people now meditate with an app, listen to a dharma talk on their phone, or ask an AI chatbot about meaning and purpose. Digital Dharma is a clear, balanced and well-researched guide to what this change really means: for practitioners, for traditions, and for the companies building these tools. From the ancient contemplative traditions of Asia, the Middle East and Europe to today's meditation apps, wearables and AI companions, the book follows the full story of how spirituality met software. It is not a sales pitch for technology and not a warning against it. It looks at every side (the practitioner and the sceptic, the teacher and the technologist, the ethicist and the regulator) and lets you decide. Inside, you will discover: How mindfulness moved from monasteries and clinics to mainstream apps and workplaces How meditation apps are designed, and what the research does and does not show about their benefits and risks The business of mindfulness: subscriptions, data, and who profits from your inner life Whether an AI can truly understand spirituality, and where its limits lie The ethics of digital spirituality: privacy, dependency, bias and commodification How different cultures (the US, UK, Europe, the Middle East and Asia) are meeting these tools Hybrid models that blend living tradition with innovation, and a vision for the future A practical Reader's Checklist for choosing and using digital spiritual tools wisely Each chapter ends with Pause and Reflect questions for journaling or group discussion, and the book includes a glossary, a research methodology, further resources and full references. Who is this book for? Curious beginners, experienced meditators, app users, developers, teachers, clinicians, educators, employers, policymakers, and anyone wondering where technology and the inner life are heading together. Written by The 360 Research Team, an independent research and writing collective that examines the human side of technology: evidence over enthusiasm, many viewpoints, plain language and respect for traditions.
