## What is BuddhaUR?

BuddhaUR is your personal Buddhist teacher - powered by AI, grounded in the earliest texts, with every teaching cited so you can verify.

Ask real questions. Get thoughtful answers. See the sources.

LEARN BUDDHISM THROUGH CONVERSATION

BuddhaUR brings the wisdom of early Buddhism to life through AI-powered conversation. Ask any question—about meditation, stress, relationships, ethics, or the deeper teachings—and receive warm, patient guidance grounded in the Buddha's own words.

Every response includes citations to the original suttas. Tap any source to read the ancient text yourself.

WHAT MAKES BUDDHAUR DIFFERENT

• Authentic Sources — Teachings come from early Buddhist suttas (Bhikkhu Sujato translations via SuttaCentral). Not generic mindfulness. Not AI hallucinations. Real Dhamma.

• Citations You Can Verify — Every claim is cited. Tap [1] or [2] to see the sutta passage. Trust, then verify.

• A Teacher, Not a Chatbot — The AI is trained to teach in the style of the early texts: patient, Socratic, using stories and metaphors to make ancient wisdom practical.

FEATURES

Ask Anything
Chat freely about Buddhist practice, life challenges, or doctrinal questions. The AI retrieves relevant passages from thousands of sutta chunks and responds with grounded, cited answers.

49 Structured Lessons
From the Four Noble Truths to Dependent Origination—clear curriculum for beginners and depth for experienced practitioners. Each lesson is a conversation, not a wall of text.

Quizzes & Adaptive Practice
Reinforce what you've learned with topic-based quizzes. Adaptive practice focuses on your weak spots, so you improve efficiently.

Meditation Timer
A calm, minimal timer with presets (2–60 min), gong/vibration alerts, and session notes. Your reflections become part of your personal context.

Daily Dhamma Talks
Receive personalized daily teachings based on your journey—what you've studied, practiced, and shared.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2.8.5 — 2026-08-21

-Coming back is easier. If you've been away, we open on what's actually on your mind — and an unfinished question is waiting where you left it.
-Shared teachings carry their source. Send someone a teaching and the discourse travels with it, named and linked, so they can read the original themselves.
-Also fixed: a sit no longer gets lost if your connection drops; password reset works in the app; and a login bug that could sign you out as you signed in.

### 2.8.4 — 2026-07-25

- Pass on what helped you. When a teaching lands, share it with the person you know who's carrying the same thing.
- Every teaching traces to a real text. We removed quotes that couldn't be sourced - if it's in the app, you can verify it.
- A gentler welcome back, and a lot of small refinements across the app.

### 2.8.3 — 2026-07-07

A new home-screen space asks "What's sitting heavy today?" — bring what's on your mind and get a teaching from the suttas that meets it. Also: lesson cards you can save or send, small try-it-now practice moments, a smoother keyboard, and a steadier end-of-teaching screen. May it serve your practice.

### 2.8.2 — 2026-06-22

A small update for steadier practice: your daily reminders now arrive once, right on time - no more double notifications. Thank you for practicing with us.

### 2.8.1 — 2026-06-17

When a teaching lands and you keep it, you'll now see a live preview of your card before you save - so what you share is exactly what moved you.

Plus a few quiet refinements under the hood.
