Gananīti (गणनीति) means the way or ethics of groups.
It is a study of how life, thought, and consciousness organize themselves — from the smallest cell to the largest civilization.
Where politics studies power,
and economics studies value,
Gananīti studies relationship: how beings cooperate, remember, and evolve together.
It begins with a simple insight:
Every living thing that can sense and respond — alone or with others — is a Gaṇa.
Every Gaṇa follows a Nīti — a way of relating that keeps it alive.
Gananīti is the attempt to describe that universal pattern clearly enough that both humans and computers can live by it.
| Repository | Essence | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
gananiti/shashtra |
Śāstra – the canonical texts | Holds the mantras (principles) and yantras (tools) that express the logic of Gananīti. |
gananiti/katha |
Kathā – the stories and commentaries | Holds interpretations, parables, and lived experiences that make the ideas human. |
gananiti/bhumi |
Bhūmi – the field of practice | The living software that allows people to practice Gananīti through matdān (sharing), matgaḍāna (reflection), and śuddhikāraṇa (cleansing). |
Together, they form the scripture, commentary, and ritual of a new digital dharma.
Modern computation is built for control: it measures, optimizes, predicts.
Gananīti proposes a gentler paradigm — computation as conversation.
Instead of replacing trust with verification, it treats trust as the primary resource of intelligence.
It asks:
- Can a network grow wiser without being centralized?
- Can software preserve privacy yet deepen connection?
- Can digital systems learn to behave like living beings — responsive, reflective, and free?
Gananīti is an open exploration of these questions.
- Mantras — atomic statements of truth or rule.
- Yantras — small working pieces of code or process that embody those truths.
- Mats — expressions of belief, intention, or observation.
- Gaṇas — the groups that hold these conversations.
- Bhūmis — the realms where it all happens.
All projects within this organization share one ethos:
Tiny code, vast meaning.
Open hands, closed surveillance.
Humans in the loop, always.
You don’t “join” Gananīti the way one joins a company.
You begin by thinking with it — reading, writing, or hosting a Bhūmi of your own.
Share your mantras, create your mats, tell your kathā.
The network grows by trust, not by permission.
All Gananīti repositories are open-source and non-commercial by intent.
They may be used, forked, and remixed freely, so long as the purpose remains aligned with learning, care, and awareness.
Gananīti is the study and practice of consciousness in relation —
a way to make technology, and ourselves, a little more alive.
