भारतीय सभ्यता ie. The Indian Civilisation
For someone who has not lived in India it is very hard to comprehend being part of a human society that is 5000+ years old. It is considered pseudoscience at best and jingoism at worst, yet for every 1 in 5 people on this planet it is obvious. The backbone of any culture is its value system, the set of values, norms or goals that guide a collective’s decision-making and actions. Our value system is based on the ancient text left by our ancestors in the language called संस्कृत (Sanskrit).
As the wheel of time spins and now the Western society faces challenges, Indian civilization is gaining momentum and drawing inspiration from its rich past. The first thing is to look back at the heritage safely handed down to us, the stories, the books and the knowledge system.
Unfortunately many people have made it a business to spread
Using AI to discover Artha
I prefer reading source code than documentation. Why not do the same for our literature?
The best way to learn to code is by reading the source code of any software. It not only teaches you what is happening but also brings you closer to the truth, where you don't have to depend and rely upon any third party. In these times it is even more true for ancient texts like the Veda, Purana, Upanishad and Sastra.
I want to build a Q/A system that helps me discover the rich material from India's past that takes us to the humanity's shared destiny.
