[Manuscripts & Inscriptions Digitization Foundation @midf_org]

Something most people don't know:

India holds the largest written record of any civilisation.
1 crore manuscripts. 3 lakh inscriptions in stone.

We gave the world zero. Wrote down surgery and calculus centuries before the West did.

Today, less than 1% can be read or searched. The rest is quietly turning to dust.

In the age of AI, knowledge a machine can't read is knowledge the world will never use.

MIDF is working to change that.

India wants to lay low. Hide its strengths and buy its time. For nothing nefarious, but just to emerge as a developed nation without sabotage. Yet, GLISCO network handles bring unnecessary attention - be it recent nuclear tech achievements or geopolitical chess moves. Indians should not get swayed and interact. Or the next post reaching you will push a narrative to program you. Classic bait and switch.

@purusa0x6c Hi

Whenever I call out the west's appropriation of yoga, ayurveda, or pranayama practices, I inevitably get this comment from many fellow Indians: "But we're not even researching or doing the science behind it."

That's flat-out wrong. I have said this before many times and let me say it again - whether it's the healing powers of turmeric or the latest pranayama technique that's suddenly a fad branded as some western guy's "method," the foundational benefits are always uncovered first by Indian scientists.

They do the research, test their hypotheses based on traditional knowledge, publish the studies, get them peer-reviewed too, and lay the groundwork.

Only then does the appropriation kick in systematically, almost like clockwork. Either with a repliction of the research and publishing in their journals to make it popular or with just a review of the Indian research by some scientist or the doctor.

After that in public discourse, it starts with a nod of attribution, then slides into rebranding the whole thing as their own. Next comes the justification: "Sure, it's inspired by the East (not even naming India), but we've modernized it."

Give another decade, they deny any link - "This isn't the same as the original." And finally, the coup de grace: claiming it was independently discovered, with zero ties to the source. Brown Sepoys at this stage automatically start fighting on their behalf too.

It's a playbook they've perfected from Greek fables with clearly animals endemic to India in it, to European mathematics with clearly Hindu numerals and logic, to Modern phlilosophy with everything from Samkhya and Nyaya to Vedanta in it.

It's high time we recognize it for what it is. A sophisticated operation of cultural appropriation going on for centuries. No millenias.

VEDAS ARE LARGEST ANCIENT ORAL TRADITION, LARGEST PRINTED TRADITION WITH LARGEST COMMENTARIES
Yet we are told primitive nomads from the Steppes who left no record are responsible for the inspiration for this literary vastness of the Vedic Rishis!

[Nick Collins @nickcollins1953]

Goths, Huns, Vandals: smashed Rome.
Mongols: stormed China, India, Europe.

Steppe nomads with no towns, writing, or states usually brought destruction.

Yet the Aryan Invasion Theory claims nomads brought India civilisation itself - maths, astronomy, philosophy, even seafaring trade.

Meanwhile, linguists still hunt for “Proto-Indo-European,” the ghost tongue before Sanskrit.

How does this add up?

The "NASA finds Sanskrit is the best language for programming" is a nonsense spread long enough diminishing the real greatness of Sanskrit.

But I have a strong intiution that Sanskrit, with its Paninian grammar and rigor in Astadhyayi sutras, will be a great language for AI prompting and even vibe coding now.

Low entropy from sandhi rules and vibhakti endings can mean zero prompt ambiguity. Prompts can become very precise, like defining karaka roles (agent, patient) to guide LLMs without hallucinations.

I feel Sanskrit is very useful in structuring our thoughts like code, making AI "understand" intent flawlessly, boosting efficiency in tasks from reasoning to AI based programming now.

I am not sure when India is releasing its multilingual LLMs, but I really want Indian companies to work on training an LLM extensively on Sanskrit literature and data. And use Sanskrit as the prompting language to do some real world tests to prove or disprove my hypothesis above.

At least India should have one entirely Sanskrit trained AI that has great and accurate knowledge on all our Aranyakas, Samhitas, Brahmanas, Upanishads, Itihasa, Puranas, Sutras, Karikas, Agamas, Kathas, Darshanas and so much other extensive Indian knowledge in Sanskrit.

They may call it Arabic numerals, Algebra, Trigonometry, Quadratics, Calculus, Western Calendar, Aesops fables, Gemini and Taurus, and astrology, without giving credit to the borrowing from at least 500 BCE, and denying any Indian contribution. But truth can't be hidden for long.
