Master Your Swadhyay Experience
Shrutam AI is an intelligent study assistant grounded in authentic Digambara Jain scriptures (Mool Shastras), Acharya commentaries (Teekas), and Gurudevshree Kanji Swami's Pravachans. Explore the sections below to understand how to get the most out of every feature.
1. How Shrutam AI Works & Its Intelligence
How is Shrutam AI different from general AI assistants like ChatGPT?
General AI models can hallucinate or mix secular concepts with Jain philosophy. Shrutam AI uses a specialized Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipeline connected to an indexed vector repository of original Jain scriptures (Mool Granths, Acharya Teekas, Anuyogs, and Pujya Gurudevshree's recorded Pravachans). Every critical statement is grounded with authentic citations rather than speculative reasoning.
What canonical sources and scriptures are indexed?
The system indexes foundational Digambara Jain literature across the Four Anuyogs (Prathmanuyoga, Karnanuyoga, Charananuyoga, and Dravyanuyoga). Key works include Kundkund Acharya's Samayasara, Pravachansara, Panchastikaya, Niyamasara, and Ashtapahuda, Amritchandra Acharya's Tattvartha Sara and Purushartha Siddhyupaya, Nemichandra Siddhanta Chakravarti's Gommatsara and Dravyasangraha, Pandit Todarmalji's Mokshamarga Prakashak, Shrimad Rajchandraji's Atmasiddhi Shastra, as well as detailed Pravachan collections by Pujya Gurudevshree Kanji Swami.
How does Shrutam AI extract and format Gathas and Shlokas?
When relevant to your question, Shrutam AI isolates the original Prakrit or Sanskrit Gatha inside a distinct reference box, providing verse-by-verse breakdown, Harigeet, and word-by-word meaning (Arth & Bhavarth), accompanied by direct page references.
2. What Types of Questions Can You Ask?
Deep Tattva Charcha & Metaphysics (Dravyanuyoga)
You can ask in-depth metaphysical questions about soul and reality, such as:
- "What is the difference between Nishchaya Naya and Vyavahara Naya in Samayasara?"
- "Explain the relationship between Karta, Karma, and Kriya from an absolute standpoint."
- "How do Dravya, Guna, and Paryay coexist according to Pravachansara?"
- "What is the exact definition of Krama-baddha Paryay?"
Clarifications on Misconceptions (Mokshamarga Prakashak)
You can ask for resolution of spiritual dilemmas and common doctrinal misunderstandings:
- "Explain the errors of Nishchayabhasi and Vyavaharabhasi as described by Pandit Todarmalji."
- "Can Shubh Raga (auspicious attachment) ever be a direct cause of Moksha?"
- "How should a householder balance daily duties with spiritual Swadhyay?"
Cosmology, Karma Theory & Spiritual Progression (Karnanuyoga)
You can ask technical questions regarding Gunasthanas and Karma structures:
- "What changes occur in knowledge and conduct at the 4th Gunasthana (Avirata Samyagdrishti)?"
- "Explain the 8 main Prakritis and 148 sub-prakritis of Karma."
- "What is the difference between Kshayika, Kshayopashamika, and Aupashamika Samyaktva?"
Granth & Gatha Specific Inquiries
Direct lookup of specific verses and their teekas:
- "Explain Gatha 38 of Samayasara along with Atmakhyati commentary."
- "What does Pandit Todarmalji say in the 7th chapter of Mokshamarga Prakashak?"
3. Reader Dock, Search & Navigation Features
How do the Citation Badges and Side Reader Dock work?
Whenever Shrutam AI cites a scripture (e.g., Samayasara pg. 42), clicking on that badge immediately opens the **Side Reader Dock**. This panel displays high-resolution scans of the exact physical page, complete with next/prev page navigation, document metadata, and a hover-based magnifying lens on desktop for clear reading of ancient scripts.
What is Live Scripture Autocomplete in the search bar?
As you begin typing the title of a scripture (e.g., "Pravachan...", "Niyama...", "Moksha...") in the main chat prompt, a floating dropdown appears instantly showing matching digitized PDFs from the Shastra Bhandar. Selecting any title brings up the complete PDF document with options to read or download.
How does Audio & Video playback work in the Side Dock?
When an answer references a recorded audio Pravachan or lecture, the Side Dock renders a built-in media player. The system tracks and automatically remembers your playback position, so you can resume listening without losing your place.
What are Suggested Questions (Blue to Purple chips)?
At the conclusion of each response, Shrutam AI formulates 2 to 3 logically progressive follow-up questions in blue hyperlink text. Tapping any suggested question immediately submits it to continue your study flow. Once tapped, the question changes to purple to indicate it has been explored.
4. Joint Swadhyay & Sharing
What is "Joint Swadhyay" and how do I collaborate with other Mumukshus?
Joint Swadhyay enables collaborative study. If you have an insightful conversation, click the Joint Swadhyay icon at the top right or on any response. Enter the username or email address of a registered friend or study group member. The full session will appear in their history sidebar in real-time, allowing both parties to review and add questions to the shared thread.
How can I revoke or manage shared Swadhyay sessions?
As the owner of a chat session, opening the Joint Swadhyay dialog displays a "Currently Shared With" list. You can revoke access from any collaborator at any time with a single click.
How do I export an entire chat session as a PDF document?
Open the sidebar menu () and hover over any past chat title. Click the red PDF download icon (). A structured PDF containing the full question-and-answer transcript, Gathas, and citations will be generated for offline reading and printing.
How do I share a single insight via WhatsApp, Telegram, or Social Media?
Beneath every AI response, click the Share icon (). You can format and send the question, answer summary, and source references directly to WhatsApp, X (Twitter), Facebook, Telegram, or copy the clean text to your clipboard.
5. Language, Voice & Accounts
How does Voice Input handle complex Jain terminology?
Click the microphone button () to speak your query. The speech engine dynamically adapts to your selected language (Hindi, Gujarati, or English) to accurately transcribe technical terms such as Syadvada, Anekantavada, Gunasthana, Samyagdarshan, Pudgala, and Upayoga without auto-submitting prematurely.
Which languages are supported?
Shrutam AI natively supports Hindi (हिन्दी), Gujarati (ગુજરાતી), and English. You can switch languages anytime using the globe icon () in the top navigation bar or under Account Settings. Setting your preference to Auto-detect will mirror the language you use to ask your question.
What is the difference between Guest Mode and a Registered Account?
Guest Mode allows immediate Swadhyay without logging in, but chat history is temporary and will reset once your browser session ends. Registered Users get persistent cloud-saved histories, Joint Swadhyay sharing, custom language preferences, and full PDF export access. You can claim a guest session and convert it to a permanent account at any time without losing your active thread.
Is Dark Mode supported?
Yes. Click the theme toggle button () in the navigation bar to toggle between Light Mode, Dark Mode, and Auto (which follows your device's system appearance). Dark mode is engineered with low-contrast, warm undertones to prevent eye fatigue during evening study.
