About ZennChat: Daily Practice
ZennChat brings Buddhist teachings and meditation into daily life. Each day you receive one passage from "The Teaching of Buddha," together with a small practice you can actually do that day. Read it, sit with it, write it down. Following the daily path on the home screen takes about ten minutes. ▸ Today's Teaching A new passage every day, with commentary and a practice for the day. Includes text-to-speech and a home screen widget that changes daily even without a network connection. ▸ Today's Path Reading, practice, sitting, reflection and study laid out as a single sequence, so you can see what today asks of you at a glance. Your streak and weekly record are kept. ▸ Ask a Zen Teacher Bring what is on your mind to an AI grounded in Buddhist teachings. You can also ask a question directly from the passage you are reading. ▸ Meditation Timer Five to thirty minutes. Voice guidance is optional and off by default, so silence stays the default. Sessions are recorded automatically. ▸ Practice Programs Multi-day programs on compassion, wisdom and mindfulness. Each day has recitation, meditation, practice and reflection, and what you write is kept so you can read it again later. ▸ Good Intentions Journal Record your morning intention, the good you did during the day, and your evening reflection. Weekly reports show how your virtues are developing. ▸ Look It Up Search 365 teachings and 370 entries covering Zen phrases, terms, rituals, sutras and schools. Twenty-four curated collections gather passages for particular moments, such as grief, sleeplessness or anger. ▸ Take a Breath When your mind is unsettled, open a quiet screen with a single passage and room to breathe. ▸ Buddhist Quiz Learn teachings, history and terminology through 160 questions. ▸ Guide to the Masters The lives and teachings of forty Zen masters and historical Buddhist figures. ▸ Give a Passage Turn a passage that stayed with you into a single card and give it to someone.
