Forked from Fork of Teachings Viz as layers

This interactive visualization of Buddha’s teachings offers three linked views: concentric onion layers, a force-directed relationship network, and a sunburst component breakdown. Users explore concepts like the Four Noble Truths and the Noble Eightfold Path through tabs and clickable elements. The code uses D3 v7 APIs including `d3.forceSimulation` for the network, `d3.hierarchy` and `d3.partition` for the sunburst, and SVG with CSS transitions for animated tab switching and hover effects. Data is embedded directly in the script.

Buddha's Teachings Interactive Visualizations

This project showcases the teachings of Buddha through interactive visualizations. By representing Buddhist concepts and their relationships visually, it provides an accessible entry point for those interested in learning about Buddhism.

Visualizations

1. Onion Layers

The core visualization represents Buddha's teachings as concentric circles, with each layer building upon the foundation of previous ones. From the central Four Noble Truths to the outer concept of Dependent Origination, this visualization demonstrates the layered nature of Buddhist philosophy.

2. Relationship Network

This network diagram shows how different teachings relate to one another. By visualizing these connections, users can better understand how concepts like the Four Noble Truths connect to the Noble Eightfold Path and other teachings. The force-directed graph allows for interactive exploration of the interconnected nature of Buddhist concepts.

3. Component Breakdown

This sunburst visualization breaks down each teaching into its constituent parts, allowing for a deeper exploration of specific concepts like the Noble Eightfold Path's division into Wisdom, Ethical Conduct, and Mental Discipline.

Usage

Click on different elements in each visualization to explore the teachings in depth. Use the tabs at the top to switch between different visualization types.

Technologies Used

HTML, CSS, JavaScript
D3.js for interactive data visualizations

Future Enhancements

Potential future additions include:

A timeline of Buddha's life and when different teachings were introduced
Interactive meditations based on selected teachings
Comparative visualizations of Buddhist concepts across different traditions
Guided pathways showing progression through the teachings

The Teachings of the Buddha 2

This interactive visualization presents the core teachings of Buddha through an animated spiritual landscape. It features a rotating Dharma Wheel symbolizing the Eightfold Path, with the Four Noble Truths displayed in expandable panels and Buddha quotes cycling across the screen. The piece uses D3.js v7 to render SVG elements, including meditation ripple circles animated with d3.transition, floating lotus and leaf emoji for atmospheric effect, and responsive gradient backgrounds. Users can interact with the visualization by hovering over path elements for descriptions or clicking the Buddha figure to enter meditation mode, which alters animation intensity.

Teachings Viz as layers

This interactive visualization presents Buddha’s teachings as concentric colored circles, with inner layers representing core concepts and outer layers showing derived principles. Clicking a circle or a legend item displays the teaching’s details in a panel below. Built with D3.js v7, the SVG circles use d3 selection and data binding, with opacity adjustments on click to highlight selected layers. The legend is interactive, and the visualization supports responsive layout through CSS media queries.

Fork of Everything in One

This interactive D3.js v7 visualization presents Buddha’s teachings as a hierarchical radial tree, with the core teaching at the center branching outward through concepts like the Four Noble Truths and Dependent Origination. Using d3.cluster, the layout positions nodes in a full circle, with curved links and text labels adjusted for orientation. The code implements zoom and pan via d3.zoom, supports responsive resizing, and renders all elements as SVG. Data is loaded from a local JSON file using d3.json.
