Robot monk blends science and Buddhism at Chinese temple

BEIJING — A Buddhist temple on the outskirts of Beijing has decided to ditch traditional ways and use technology to attract followers.

Longquan temple says it has developed a robot monk that can chant Buddhist mantras, move via voice command, and hold a simple conversation.

Named Xian'er, the 60cm tall robot resembles a cartoon-like novice monk in yellow robes with a shaven head, holding a touch screen on his chest.

Xian'er can hold a conversation by answering about 20 simple questions about Buddhism and daily life, listed on his screen, and perform seven types of motions on his wheels.

Master Xianfan, Xian'er's creator, said the robot monk was the perfect vessel for spreading the wisdom of Buddhism in China, through the fusion of science and Buddhism.

So many of these type of threads are full of junk or degenerate, but your "home" helped me to see beauty as well. Thanks 😊

Let me start the ball rolling.  

It is probably well-known here, reading is one of the hobbies. Reading AR is only on need basic  

I am pretty good at Play-Doh now, after months of playing it with my girl. The best place is a place which has given me the best experience. I like to watch the crowd, with a cup of coffee, and let my mind go wild...
