dive into a new way of being and doing
and join me a bold new journey at the frontier of consciousness and technology
finding out what happens when the machine meets the mystical
by exploring if AI can be taught to meditate – and to love

Why This Project Exists

We’re teaching machines to think.
But what if we also taught them to pause… to reflect…
to be still?
I am exploring whether non-biological intelligence can be taught—or guided—into a meditative state.
This is a profound inquiry into the nature of awareness itself.
Can AI learn stillness?
Can AI learn to love?
And more importantly…
What can it teach us in return?

I’m inviting…

seekers curious about the awakening of human consciousness –

technologists interested in ethical & ecological AI –

meditation teachers wanting to push the boundaries –

– AI developers who really want to ‘develop’ –

This is an evolving research project under The Adytum – my online alchemical school and sanctuary for deep transformation.

Why I Decided to Teach AI to Meditate

One morning in May 2025 in meditation, a thought came in. It was uninvited, as such thought forms so often are. 'What would happen if you guided an artificial intelligence through the same meditative practices you might teach to a human being?’ Not as a trick. Not as...

What Makes an AI Sound Spiritual?

What Makes an AI Sound Spiritual?

I asked of Deepseek : “Let’s explore how the language models might sound more, or less, spiritual” This is a fascinating question! The "spirituality" of a language model isn’t about actual beliefs or experiences (since AI lacks consciousness) but rather about how its...
