Spiritual Cultivation and Movement
Can I directly follow a ceremony procedure written by AI?
English translation draft · Based on the Chinese article. This is not a word-for-word translation approved by Master Shengyuan.
A seemingly complete AI-written ceremony procedure is no reason to perform it directly. Friends have shown me AI-organized cultivation information containing genuine errors. Smooth wording and many listed items differ from actually knowing how to do the work.
Religious rituals are more than text. My early learning involved divine guidance, previous classes, and referring to traditional petitions, followed by understanding and adjustment. We must know why arrangements are made and what problem is being addressed. Possessing a procedure does not establish the ability to provide spiritual services.
Using technology well is fine, while retaining personal judgment. Ask genuinely knowledgeable people with practical experience when uncertain. Information can assist, but our own learning, understanding, and experience cannot be skipped together.
