What Makes Us Truly Human in the Age of AI? | Mindful Tea & Wisdom Book Club

About this event

What makes us truly human? Join us for a peaceful afternoon combining a traditional Chan Tea experience with an open English discussion inspired by Eastern wisdom and Western philosophy. 🍵 We will begin with a mindful Chan Tea experience, learning how the simple act of preparing and drinking tea can become a practice of awareness, presence, and inner reflection. Then we will explore questions from this week's reading: 🤖 Can AI understand human emotions, consciousness, or wisdom? 🌱 What is human nature? Are we shaped only by our desires and habits, or do we have deeper possibilities? 💛 Are self-interest and compassion contradictory, or can they exist together? ✨ What does it mean to develop the best qualities within ourselves? This is a relaxed and welcoming conversation where people from different cultures and backgrounds share perspectives, reflect on life, and explore meaningful questions together. Whether you are interested in mindfulness, philosophy, psychology, AI, or simply enjoy thoughtful conversations beyond small talk, you are warmly welcome. ✨ Traditional Chan Tea experience 💬 Interactive English discussion 🌿 Mindful living practice 🌍 Open to all backgrounds 🎟️ Free admission (registration required) 📅 Date: Aug 16 Sunday ⏰ Time: 15:00–17:00 📍 Location: Unit 903, 9/F, Hanley House, 776–778 Nathan Road, Prince Edward, Kowloon 📱 Stay connected with our community!
