The Spark of Inspiration

As someone passionate about both technology and timeless wisdom, I often found myself revisiting the Bhagavad Gita for clarity during life’s chaos. One evening, an idea struck me:

"What if you could ask Lord Krishna your questions directly, and hear his answers in his own voice?"

And that’s how the seed of MythOS: Talk to Lord Krishna was planted — an AI-powered spiritual guide combining LLMs, text-to-speech, and the essence of the Gita.

The Journey

Designing the Soul of Krishna

The first step was writing a prompt that could reflect Krishna’s poetic, philosophical, and compassionate nature. I studied passages from the Gita and distilled them into a guiding system prompt.

Connecting to LLMs

I used Together.ai to run Mixtral-8x7B-Instruct for powerful open-source answers. This kept the project cost-effective and cloud-deployable.

Giving Krishna a Voice

Using gTTS (and later experimenting with Edge-TTS), I converted Krishna’s wisdom into spoken words. Hearing responses like "Detach from results, dear one" gave me chills.

Memory & Context

I used ChromaDB to implement vector memory, so Krishna could remember previous chats. Questions like "What did I ask yesterday about karma?" became possible.

Bulk Uploads

Many users wanted to ask multiple spiritual questions. I added PDF/CSV upload functionality with PyPDF2 and pandas so Krishna could answer documents full of questions.

The Result

The final app allows you to:

Ask questions like "What is dharma?"
Hear Krishna reply in his own voice
Get a related Bhagavad Gita verse automatically
Upload documents full of questions
See your past Q&A in the sidebar

All in a single, beautifully simple Streamlit app.

What I Learned

RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) is a game-changer for chatbots
Free tools like gTTS or Edge-TTS can do wonders with creativity
User experience matters even in spiritual apps
Memory and voice make LLMs feel human-like

What’s Next

Adding CrewAI agents to handle deeper spiritual queries
Hosting on Hugging Face Spaces or Streamlit Community Cloud
Allowing users to upload their own Bhagavad Gita notes
Expanding voices and language support (Sanskrit? Telugu?)

Final Thoughts

This project was more than code. It was a fusion of faith, curiosity, and AI. MythOS Krishna isn’t just a chatbot — it’s a digital companion for seekers, just like Arjuna had on the battlefield.
