Ancient knowledge. Personal chart. Modern guidance.
Full Vedic astrology calculation — Lagna, all 9 Grahas, Nakshatra, Vimshottari Dasha — calculated precisely from your birth details.
Relevant shlokas retrieved from Bhagavad Gita, Mahabharata, Ramayana, Upanishads, and Panchatantra — cited precisely with Sanskrit originals.
The Rishi first tells an ancient story mirroring your exact situation — as Narada counselled Yudhishthira, as Krishna guided Arjuna.
Five specific action steps tied to your chart, your dasha period, and your nakshatra — not generic advice but a precise personal prescription.
Your specific dasha lord's beej mantra with Sanskrit, transliteration, meaning, count, and the best day to chant — matched to your running period.
Continue the conversation. The Rishi remembers your chart and story across follow-up questions — deepening the guidance with each exchange.
"The Rishi told me the story of King Nala the moment I described my job loss. I had never heard it. By the end I was in tears — not from sadness but from recognition."
"It named the exact Saturn dasha I am in, explained why my relationship situation arose NOW, and gave me a mantra that I have been chanting every Saturday since."
"I came sceptical. I left with three specific actions to take, a shloka from the Upanishads that felt written for me, and more clarity than I have had in years."

An AI trained on the oldest wisdom traditions of India,
combined with precise Vedic astrology and modern machine learning.
In ancient India, the Rishi — the sage-seer — was the community's guide through life's most difficult passages. The Rishi did not give generic advice. The Rishi first told a story from the great texts that mirrored the seeker's exact situation, then drew the lesson, then prescribed a specific practice.
Narada guided Yudhishthira through story. Vishwamitra guided Rama through example. Krishna guided Arjuna through the eighteen chapters of the Bhagavad Gita itself. The Digital Rishi follows this same structure — story first, then lesson, then action.
Your birth date, time, and location are used to calculate a complete sidereal (Vedic) birth chart using Swiss Ephemeris — the same astronomical library used by professional Jyotish software. This gives:
Lagna (Ascendant) — your fundamental nature and how you meet life · All 9 Grahas — each planet's exact Rashi, house, and strength · Janma Nakshatra — your birth star and its lord · Vimshottari Dasha — the current planetary period governing your life timing · Classical Yogas — powerful combinations in your chart (Gaja Kesari, Raja Yoga, Mahapurusha, etc.)
Every guidance response is tied directly to your chart — not generic horoscope content.
The Digital Rishi runs on Gemma 2B — a compact open-source language model fine-tuned on 270 training examples pairing real birth charts (from famous historical figures with known birth times) with Rishi-style guidance. The fine-tuning used LoRA adapters via Unsloth on Google Colab's free T4 GPU.
The model runs entirely locally on your computer via Ollama — no data is sent to any cloud service. Your birth details, your situation, and the Rishi's response never leave your machine.
The Digital Rishi is a tool for spiritual reflection and self-understanding. It draws on classical Jyotish principles and ancient Indian wisdom, interpreted through AI. It is not a substitute for professional medical, legal, financial, or psychological advice. For serious matters, always consult qualified human professionals.
