Common questions
What is Amicus Occultus?+
An AI listening companion. You set down a trouble, and it answers through Advaita Vedanta and Buddhist non-dual philosophy, in four movements: what was heard, the turn, one small step, and one question to keep.
Is it therapy?+
No. It is not therapy, diagnosis or crisis care. If you are in danger or thinking about harming yourself, please call or text 988 (US and Canada) or contact your local emergency services.
Who can read my dialogues?+
Your dialogues are private to your account. The site administrator can access them only for support and safety. See the Privacy page for details.
How do I delete a dialogue?+
Open your Journal, find the dialogue and choose delete. The dialogue and all of its messages are removed.
I can't sign in.+
Use "Forgot password" on the sign-in page to reset it. If that does not work, send us a message below with the email you signed up with.
Does the friend speak as a guru or a god?+
Never. It speaks as a friend who looks with you, and it names the tradition each teaching comes from.
