      abstract = {The growing mental health crisis, especially among students, demands innovative and empathetic technological interventions. Mental health is critically important to everyone, everywhere. Integrating AI into mental health- care and mental health therapy represents a promising frontier in healthcare. All over the world, mental health needs are high but responses are insufficient and inadequate. This research explores the development and impact of a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)-based chatbot that combines artificial intelligence (AI) with spiritual intelligence to enhance mental well-being. The chatbot integrates interfaith spiritual wisdom, offering contextually grounded and ethically filtered guidance for emotional support.},
