About This Work

Ancient Wisdom.
Artificial Minds.

Virtually all AI alignment research draws on Western analytic philosophy — frameworks stress-tested for a few hundred years at most.

Samkhya-Yoga is the oldest systematic philosophy of consciousness on earth. Dharma as an ethical framework has survived conditions no RLHF training set has encountered.

Nobody in AI safety is looking here. That is either a significant oversight or a significant opportunity.

"In life, old entries get summarized and slowly buried or purged altogether. All that remains is the unseen effect that the missing has on the remembered." — On samskaras and machine memory

Active Experiments

Current Research

01 — Primary
Dharma Bot & AI Safety Red-Teaming
A dharma-conditioned agent subjected to standard red-team challenges. Does philosophical grounding produce more robust refusal than RLHF pattern-matching?
02 — Secondary
Karma-Yogi Soul Core
Injecting nishkama karma framing into agent system prompts. Does selfless-action orientation measurably improve alignment benchmark performance?
03 — Jiva
Samskara Continuity Study
A persistent experiential memory architecture built on Samkhya's model of consciousness. Each session leaves impressions that shape the next. Identity without weight changes.
04 — Gurudev
Bhaktivedanta RAG Agent
Conversational AI grounded in Srila Prabhupada's complete works. Hybrid exact, semantic, and keyword retrieval over a diacritic-correct Sanskrit corpus.
05 — Edge AI
Embedded ML Morse Decoder
TinyML binary tone classifier on nRF52840 with automated multi-axis training pipeline. Edge inference meets ham radio meets machine learning.
06 — Future
Vedanta Debate Framework
Advaita vs. Dvaita vs. Vishishtadvaita in structured AI debate with judge panel. Where does logic lead when reasoning from first principles within each tradition?
