Lotus Wisdom is a contemplative reasoning framework inspired by the Lotus Sutra that guides AI through structured wisdom journeys for complex problems where analytical logic alone falls short. Key features of Lotus Wisdom: - Multi-domain contemplation system with three wisdom domains: Skillful Means (Upaya) for different approaches to truth, Non-Dual Recognition for transcending apparent contradictions, and Meta-Cognitive reflection for observing understanding as it unfolds - Tag-based journey system with tags like begin, open, examine, integrate, express, and meditate to structure the contemplation process - Meditation pauses that allow insights to emerge naturally from stillness rather than forcing conclusions - Journey tracking across perspectives, showing how understanding evolves through different wisdom domains - Visual formatting with domain-specific symbols (🚪🔆☯️🧠🌊🧘) and color-coded output to map the contemplative path - Best suited for multi-perspective problems, contradictions needing integration, and questions that contain their own wisdom

🪷 Lotus Wisdom MCP Server

An MCP server implementation that provides a tool for problem-solving using the Lotus Sutra's wisdom framework, combining analytical thinking with intuitive wisdom.

Features

Background

This MCP server was developed from the Lotus OS prompt, which was designed to implement a cognitive framework based on the Lotus Sutra. The MCP server format makes this framework more accessible and easier to use with Claude and other AI assistants.

Note: The original prompt framework may work less effectively with newer Claude models, but this MCP server implementation provides consistent functionality across model versions.

Implementation Details

The server implements a structured thinking process using wisdom domains inspired by the Lotus Sutra:

Wisdom Domains and Tags

The server organizes thoughts using wisdom domains (all valid values for the tag input parameter):

Thought Visualization

Each thought is beautifully formatted with:

Note: The visualization appears in the server console output, helping developers track the thinking process.

Process Flow

1. The user submits a problem to solve 2. The model begins with tag='begin' to receive the full framework 3. The model continues with contemplation tags (open, examine, integrate, etc.) 4. Each thought builds on previous ones and may revise understanding 5. The tool tracks both the tag journey and wisdom domain movements 6. Meditation pauses can be included for clarity 7. When status='WISDOM_READY' is returned, the tool's work is complete 8. The model then expresses the final wisdom naturally in its own voice
