"योगस्थः कुरु कर्माणि" — Perform action with equanimity

The Guiding Vision Behind GitaYukti

The Bhagavad Gita has offered clarity and teachings to the world for hundred of years, gently reminding us of our inner strength, our purpose, and the peace that comes from right action and understanding.

GitaYukti-8B was created to bring the true essence of the Gita in context of the modern world, to act with clarity, to face life’s uncertainties with steadiness, and to discover the quiet wisdom within ourselves.

The Gita's Influence on Great Minds 🌟

The Bhagavad Gita has shaped some of the greatest thinkers, scientists, and leaders in modern history.

"Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds."
— J. Robert Oppenheimer, quoting Gita 11.32 after witnessing the first nuclear test

Oppenheimer, the father of the atomic bomb, learned Sanskrit specifically to read the Gita in its original form. He kept a copy on his shelf and called it "the most beautiful philosophical song existing in any known tongue."

"The Gita is the universal mother. I find solace in the Bhagavad Gita, which I cannot find in any other book."
— Swami Vivekananda

"The marvel of the Bhagavad Gita is its truly beautiful revelation of life’s wisdom... I consider it the greatest work of the world."
— Herman Hesse (Nobel Prize in Literature)

"The Bhagavad Gita is a performance of great originality... displaying a sublimity of conception unmatched."
— Lord Warren Hastings (First Governor-General of India)

"It gave me strength and inspiration."
— Sunita Williams (NASA Astronaut)

Sunita Williams carried a copy of the Bhagavad Gita to the International Space Station.

Solving Modern Life's Challenges 💡

The Bhagavad Gita was composed thousands of years ago, its teachings speak directly to the struggles we face today:

GitaYukti can help to explore themes through conversation, deep insights and examples of real world applications that exists in our modern world.

What Makes This Different?

• 🧠 Thinking Chain of thoughts — Uses reasoning like human to give answers with depth, not surface level responses
• 📜 Rooted in the Sanskrit,Hindi understanding — References actual verses (shlokas), chapters, and Sanskrit terminology
• 🕉️ Understands the Philosophy — Knows Vedantic concepts like Karma, Dharma, Moksha in context
• 💬 Conversational — Answers questions like having a conversation with a wise friend, without judging our questions

How It Was Trained

GitaYukti was trained with Qwen3 family of base foundational model, a powerful 8-billion parameter model with reasoning capabilities.It was trained on a curated dataset containing all 700 verses of the Bhagavad Gita in Sanskrit , accurate Hindi transliterations and translations.

1. Curated Dataset Creation — A custom comprehensive dataset containing:

   • All 700 verses of the Bhagavad Gita in Sanskrit
   • Accurate Hindi transliterations and translations
   • Sanskrit verses with Hindi translations
   • Sanskrit verses with English translations
   • Trained with over 6.7 million tokens on the mighty H100 GPU

2. Reasoning-First Approach — The model was trained to think in chain of thoughts questions using a structured reasoning format. Before giving an answer, it considers the context, relevant verses, philosophical implications, and practical applications.

3. Multi-lingual Awareness — The training preserved the model's ability to understand and respond in English, Hindi, and even recognize Sanskrit terms.

Training Details

Quick Start

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer, TextIteratorStreamer
import threading

model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("ananddey/GitaYukti-8B",trust_remote_code=True)

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("ananddey/GitaYukti-8B",trust_remote_code=True)

inputs = tokenizer("What does the Gita teach us about Karma?", return_tensors="pt")

streamer = TextIteratorStreamer(
    tokenizer,
    skip_special_tokens=False
)
generation_kwargs = dict(
    **inputs,
    max_new_tokens=2000,
    streamer=streamer
)

thread = threading.Thread(target=model.generate, kwargs=generation_kwargs)
thread.start()

for text in streamer:
    print(text, end="", flush=True)

A Glimpse of GitaYukti

You: I'm struggling with anxiety about my future. What would the Gita say?

GitaYukti: The Gita addresses this beautifully through the concept of Nishkama Karma — action without attachment to results. In Chapter 2, Verse 47, Krishna tells Arjuna:

"कर्मण्येवाधिकारस्ते मा फलेषु कदाचन"

"You have the right to action alone, never to its fruits."

The anxiety you're feeling likely stems from attachment to outcomes — worrying about what might happen, what should happen. Krishna's teaching here isn't about being passive or not caring. It's about putting your whole heart into the work while releasing your grip on the results.

Think about it: the future is genuinely uncertain. But your effort right now? Your intention, your growth, your actions today — those are fully within your control. Krishna is inviting you to find freedom within action, not by escaping it.

When you focus on the quality of your effort rather than anxiously calculating outcomes, something shifts. The work becomes lighter. The anxiety loosens its hold.

Focus on what you can control. Let the rest unfold as it will.

Namaste,🙏

I feel the Bhagavad Gita is still very much relevant to the existing modern world dillema and problems. Even today, we face the same worries, doubts, and questions about purpose, responsibility, love, and inner peace. By bringing the teachings of the Bhagavad Gita together with the gentle intelligence of AI, my hope is to make its wisdom easier to understand without judgements, like a compassionate companion we can turn to anytime.

This model is a work of passion and devotion, combining ancient Indian philosophy and Artificial Intelligence. If it helps even one person find clarity or comfort, it had done its job.
