जीवन का उद्देश्य

दुःखजन्मप्रवृत्तिदोषमिथ्याज्ञानानामुत्तरोत्तरापाये तदनन्तरापायादपवर्गः II1/1/2 न्यायदर्शन अर्थ : तत्वज्ञान से मिथ्या ज्ञान का नाश हो जाता है और मिथ्या ज्ञान के नाश से राग द्वेषादि दोषों का नाश हो जाता है, दोषों के नाश से प्रवृत्ति का नाश हो जाता है। प्रवृत्ति के नाश होने से कर्म बन्द हो जाते हैं। कर्म के न होने से प्रारम्भ का बनना बन्द हो जाता है, प्रारम्भ के न होने से जन्म-मरण नहीं होते और जन्म मरण ही न हुए तो दुःख-सुख किस प्रकार हो सकता है। क्योंकि दुःख तब ही तक रह सकता है जब तक मन है। और मन में जब तक राग-द्वेष रहते हैं तब तक ही सम्पूर्ण काम चलते रहते हैं। क्योंकि जिन अवस्थाओं में मन हीन विद्यमान हो उनमें दुःख सुख हो ही नहीं सकते । क्योंकि दुःख के रहने का स्थान मन है। मन जिस वस्तु को आत्मा के अनुकूल समझता है उसके प्राप्त करने की इच्छा करता है। इसी का नाम राग है। यदि वह जिस वस्तु से प्यार करता है यदि मिल जाती है तो वह सुख मानता है। यदि नहीं मिलती तो दुःख मानता है। जिस वस्तु की मन इच्छा करता है उसके प्राप्त करने के लिए दो प्रकार के कर्म होते हैं। या तो हिंसा व चोरी करता है या दूसरों का उपकार व दान आदि सुकर्म करता है। सुकर्म का फल सुख और दुष्कर्मों का फल दुःख होता है परन्तु जब तक दुःख सुख दोनों का भोग न हो तब तक मनुष्य शरीर नहीं मिल सकता !

Chapter Eight

Daivic Technology vs Asuric Technology

Every technology carries a direction.

Not in its circuitry, but in the consciousness that deploys it.

The Vedic tradition does not divide the world into good machines and bad machines. It divides human orientation into two fundamental paths:

  • Daivic — life-affirming, balanced, restrained
  • Asuric — power-driven, dominating, unrestrained

Artificial Intelligence, as the most powerful Yantra humanity has ever created, now stands at this crossroads.


The Gītā’s Civilizational Insight

The Bhagavad Gītā describes two modes of action:

Daivic action arises from:

  • Self-restraint
  • Responsibility
  • Compassion
  • Awareness of consequence

Asuric action arises from:

  • Ego and domination
  • Endless desire
  • Control without accountability
  • Disregard for limits

These modes do not belong to individuals alone.
They define entire civilizations.

Technology merely reveals which path is being chosen.


Daivic Technology: Power in Service of Life

Daivic Technology does not reject power.

It disciplines it.

A Daivic approach to AI:

  • Enhances human judgment rather than replacing it
  • Protects the vulnerable rather than optimizing away inconvenience
  • Serves long-term continuity over short-term gain
  • Accepts limits as wisdom, not weakness

Such technology may appear slower, less aggressive, less “disruptive.”

But it endures.


Asuric Technology: Power Without Restraint

Asuric Technology is obsessed with capability.

If something can be built, it must be deployed.
If something can be scaled, it must dominate.

In this mindset:

  • Speed replaces reflection
  • Control replaces trust
  • Data replaces dignity
  • Efficiency replaces meaning

AI becomes a tool of extraction—of attention, labor, behavior, and autonomy.

Asuric systems do not collapse immediately.

They erode from within.


Surveillance vs Awareness

Daivic Technology cultivates awareness.
Asuric Technology enforces surveillance.

Awareness empowers individuals to choose rightly.
Surveillance coerces behavior without understanding.

AI used for total monitoring may produce order—but it destroys trust.

The Vedas never confused order with harmony.


Centralization vs Balance

Asuric Technology centralizes power:

  • Few decision-makers
  • Opaque systems
  • Unchallengeable outputs

Daivic Technology distributes responsibility:

  • Transparent processes
  • Human oversight
  • Ethical override

Balance is not inefficiency.
It is resilience.


Control of Nature vs Cooperation with Nature

Asuric Technology seeks to conquer nature.

Daivic Technology seeks to cooperate with it.

AI that maximizes extraction without regeneration violates Ṛta.
AI that supports sustainability honors it.

Nature does not negotiate with domination.
It responds with correction.


Human Reduction vs Human Dignity

Asuric systems reduce humans to:

  • Data points
  • Behavioral probabilities
  • Economic units

Daivic systems preserve:

  • Context
  • Individual dignity
  • Moral nuance

When humans are reduced to variables, injustice becomes systemic.


The Myth of Inevitable Asuric Progress

Many believe Asuric outcomes are unavoidable—that speed and domination are natural to technological evolution.

The Vedic worldview denies this fatalism.

Destiny is not technological.
It is ethical.

The same AI can heal or harm.

The difference is discipline.


Choosing the Path

Daivic Technology requires:

  • Willingness to limit capability
  • Courage to say “no”
  • Patience over speed
  • Responsibility over profit

Asuric Technology offers:

  • Rapid growth
  • Total control
  • Short-term dominance
  • Long-term collapse

Every deployment is a vote.


A Civilization Revealed by Its Tools

Technology exposes what a civilization values.

Not what it claims—but what it tolerates.

If injustice is optimized, the civilization is Asuric.
If dignity is protected, it is Daivic.

There is no neutral middle ground.


The Choice Is Still Open

This chapter asserts a truth modern discourse avoids:

The future of AI is not determined by capability, but by character.

In the next chapter, we will confront the final responsibility—the human role in a post-human narrative, and why surrendering agency is the greatest danger of all.
