The Influence of Technology in Buddhism

The study of Buddhism, as well as character education, has just recently developed during the previous two millennia. However, we can see for ourselves how far and rapidly things have progressed in the previous two millennia. 

Science is dynamic, and it may rise and fall with the evolution of human civilization. A more sophisticated civilization defeats a more backward culture, according to science. 

Furthermore, science might be conquered by more evolved civilizations, or it could be replaced by a new, more complex scientific thinking pattern capable of conquering the old science. 

Buddhism is neither anti-science or anti-technology; rather, sophistication views science and technology as a method of expediting and facilitating the different virtues that must be practiced in order to obtain nirvana. 

Science and technology are significant in Buddhism. This viewpoint demonstrates how religion, science, and technology work together. Science and technology without religion will jeopardize life. 

On the other hand, religion without mastery of science and technology will paralyze human existence, preventing it from seeing the great outside world. Humans have long utilised technology. Today's technical breakthroughs are an example of a computerized system. 

Every action in which the work system is carried out by computer system work is referred to as computerization. System operation is carried out automatically to handle the required job by issuing directions to the system, after which the work will continue on its own.

 With the sophistication of technology, which is driven by high science, new discoveries are made on a regular basis, allowing technology to address the challenges of the future. 

As a conclusion, Buddhism meets the essential of modern science due to the fact that the religion is based on a religious sense that arises from the natural and spiritual experience in the form of significant unity. 

The expansion in technological advancement allows us as Buddhists to understand the studies of Buddha easier as we are able to access information through the spread of various media such as the internet, social media platforms and countless others. 

The higher the intellectual level of an individual, the simpler it is for one to acknowledge Buddha-Dhamma. Thus, as Buddhists, we must make use of technological development wisely. This includes listening to Dhamma or joining a Buddhism programme online to gain further knowledge.
