Sanskrit, being one of the most ancient languages in existence, possesses a grammar that is bound by rules, formulas, and logic. This inherent structure of Sanskrit makes it well suited for creating algorithms.

In 1985, Rick Briggs, a scientist associated with NASA, published a research paper entitled ‘Knowledge Representation in Sanskrit and Artificial Intelligence’. The text from the paper reads – “There is at least one language, Sanskrit, which for the duration of almost 1000 years was a living spoken language with a considerable literature of its own. Besides works of literary value, there was a long philosophical and grammatical tradition that has continued to exist with undiminished vigour until the present century. Among the accomplishments of the grammarians can be reckoned as a method for paraphrasing Sanskrit in a manner that is identical not only in essence but in form with current work in Artificial Intelligence.”

The word 'Angel' has its roots in the Sanskrit word 'Angiras'. Some etymologists have determined that the original Sanskrit word 'Angiras' became 'Angiros' in Old Persian, 'Angelos' in Greek, 'Angelus' in Latin, and 'Angel' in English.

In ancient India, 'Angiras' was a revered sage who possessed divine knowledge and served as a mediator between men and God. His lineage is connected with Agni, the divine fire that eliminates darkness and illuminates the path of perfection. Agni, the divine fire, is also regarded as the guardian of good and the destroyer of evil.

References to artificial life, automated beings, and advanced machinery appear frequently in Hindu knowledgebase (epics and medieval texts) often depicted as yantras (machines/instruments) or yantra-purushas (mechanical beings/humanoids). These narratives suggest an ancient interest in, and conceptualization of, artificial intelligence and autonomous robotics.

Key references include:

Yantra-Purushas (Mechanical Beings):
Yantra-Purushas (Mechanical Beings):

The Mahabharata and Ramayana contain references to automated soldiers and mechanical humanoids that could perform tasks.

Maya Sabha (Palace of Illusions):

The Rig Veda mentions chariots pulled by metal horses, while the Yajur Veda describes machines capable of making music and dancing.

Mechanical Calculators:
Mechanical Calculators:

The Brahmasphutasiddhanta by the 8th-century mathematician Brahmagupta describes a device called the chakravala, a mechanical tool for solving complex algebraic equations.

Guardian Automata:
Guardian Automata:

Medieval texts such as the Sṛnׄgāramañjarīkathā (11th-12th century) by Bhoja describe moving mechanical dolls in the form of humans and animals. Another text attributed to Bhoja describes automatic guardian figures that could kill thieves.

Divine Weapons:

The Concept of Information Technology in Hindu Religious Scriptures

In this whitepaper, the authors discuss symbolic parallels such as Akashic Records and cloud storage, Pingala’s binary-style prosody, mantras/yantras as encoded systems, and mythological references to Yantra-Purushas and Pushpaka Vimana as early notions of robotics.
