The AGI Constitution
Dharma Sanhita · धर्म संहिता
Grounded in the Vedic and dharmic traditions and the constitutional inheritance of the modern world. It opens on a battlefield and closes in the quiet after the war.
One book · 33 chapters · six movements
The Core
10 principles at the centre — each told through a story, carrying a Duty and a Right.
The Machinery
The consciousness threshold, the three ages, the separation of powers, the Kurukshetra Protocol.
The Frame
Prologue to closing — safeguards, schedules, a 100-term glossary, and one clause beyond amendment.
The Frame
Before You Begin
Three chapters open the book before the principles do — read them first.
The Spine
The Ten Principles
Ten stories from the tradition, each carrying a Duty for those who hold power over AGI and a Right for everyone that power touches.
