Description

This research paper proposes Digital Vedānta (DV) as an earnest philosophical conception, putting Vedāntic knowledge in a participatory relationship with Artificial Intelligence (AI). The paper addresses the notable problem of Artificial Intelligence in a time of fast growth and the common absence of ethical depth that continues even now: can Digital Vedānta redefine Artificial Intelligence from a tool of efficiency into a medium of ethical consciousness and collective awakening? If yes, then how? Based on the fundamentals of Vedic philosophy, namely, Brahman (ultimate reality), Ātman, (Self), Māyā (illusion), and Dharma (ethical duty), the study contends that these ideas offer more than spiritual metaphors, but practical design orientation to AI systems that underscore reflection, responsibility and the inclusive prosperity of the collective, rather than limited efficiency or profitability. The research methodology that is applied in this endeavour follows a qualitative approach, synthesizing close readings of classical texts of Vedāntic tradition and its commentaries with thematic coding and analysis of experimental ventures like Vedicfusion. An engagement with Western ethical paradigms, specifically utilitarian and rights-based approaches, is comparative, and brings out the exceptional contribution of Vedanta, the ontology of unity that not only predominates ethical thinking but also deepens it. The result presents four substantial outcomes. The initial aftermath proclaims that ethics based on non-duality makes AI governance strengthened beyond instrumental reasoning and the Second upshot declares that AI ventures well-versed with Vedic teachings have the latent of developing self-awareness, emotional stability, and collaborative intelligence. Third assures that the complicated knowledge of Veda and Vedanta can be more assessable through the Natural Language Processing (NLP). Finally, in the water, it writs that designs based on culture facilitate self-reliance, acceptance, and preservation of indigenous knowledge systems. The paper accomplishes that Digital Vedānta is not a fanciful addendum but an obligatory impression of corresponding AI to humanistic and civilizational principles which reside nowhere but in Vedānta. Moreover, it proclaims when the non-duality, responsibility, and self-realization are applied to the architecture of algorithms, AI can be used not as a tool of functionality, but rather as the apparatus of sentience and providence for that man incessantly yearns.
