Saṅkhya — "that which enumerates." This repository holds the document collection of the Saṅkhya axiomatic theory: a reading of Maharishi Kapila's ancient system, transmitted in the Saṅkhya Karika of Ishwara Krishna and expounded in G. Srinivasan's Secret of Saṅkhya: Acme of Scientific Unification, as a complete axiomatic mathematics — a universe of oscillating unit volumes in which every physical constant is derived by counting, never measured.

Saṅkhya begins where measurement cannot go. Instead of instruments it uses axioms; instead of readings it uses counts.
The Saṅkhya Karika — 68 sutras — lays out a complete account of how an unmanifest substratum becomes an observable universe. Its first sutra opens the investigation of the triple interaction of stresses; from there the system enumerates, step by counted step, the entire chain of manifestation.
Space, in this account, is not a void. It is a plenum: densely packed, immobile unit volumes whose only freedom is their internal vibratory state. Nothing travels — states transmigrate through harmonic oscillation, and oscillations are detectable in exactly one way: by counting them. This is why the system bears the name it does.
Three commitments distinguish the theory:
- Axiomatic derivation — physical constants are computed from first principles, not fitted to observation.
- Self-similarity — one ratio governs structure at every scale, spanning 103 orders of magnitude.
- Perpetual harmonic oscillation — the ground state of space is a self-sustaining resonance requiring no external energy input.
Everything manifest arises between two poles:
- Purusha —
Kx = 0.9149879, the maximum coherent ground state. - Prakriti —
PM = 1.67442E−27, the nuclear or hadron state.
Their interaction expresses itself through three modes of stress, the Gunas:
| Guna | Character | Physical reading |
|---|---|---|
| Sathwa | outward · maximum speed | the force operating outward at maximum speed |
| Raja | transitional · shuttling | the force in the transition region, shuttling inward or outward |
| Thaama | inward · coherent | the decelerating force acting inward — the coherent, bound state |
Twenty-one axioms, extracted from the source texts (see Abstreviewfinalrev.pdf) and organized into seven families — stated exactly, with nothing imported from physics.
| # | Axiom | Mathematical form |
|---|---|---|
| SS1 | The ratio x governs all division and unity | |
| SS2 | x satisfies the master equation | |
| SS3 | All harmonic proportions are powers of x |
| # | Axiom | Mathematical form |
|---|---|---|
| A1 | Change exists | |
| A2 | The first change equals one unit | |
| A3 | The change of state equals two | |
| A4 | The next sequential change equals three |
| # | Axiom | Mathematical form |
|---|---|---|
| S1 | Space has three dimensions | |
| S2 | Space is not a void; it comprises elemental matter | — |
| S3 | Space forms unit volumes | |
| S4 | Space holds balance dynamically — the PHO state | — |
| # | Axiom | Mathematical form |
|---|---|---|
| O1 | A cycle has four phases | |
| O2 | Oscillations are detectable only by counting | — |
| O3 | The fundamental resonant state is always coherent | — |
| O4 | Transmigration occurs through harmonic oscillation | — |
| # | Axiom | Mathematical form |
|---|---|---|
| I1 | The change from 1 to 2 is simultaneous | — |
| I2 | Sequential flow is unidirectional only | — |
| I3 | Simultaneous interactions are instantaneous | |
| I4 | Sequential interactions are time-ordered |
| # | Axiom | Mathematical form |
|---|---|---|
| C1 | The cycle 1·2·3·4 completes the decimal | |
| C2 | The fundamental count |
| # | Axiom | Mathematical form |
|---|---|---|
| E1 | Unity divides through the golden ratio | |
| E2 | Seven emerges from volumetric expansion | |
| E3 | The PHO ratio |
One seed ratio, from which the entire system unfolds. It is the unique positive ratio that divides unity self-similarly: the part relates to the whole as the remainder relates to the part.
Everything numerical in Saṅkhya traces back to x. Each constant is generated by the one before it:
| Constant | Definition | Value | Meaning |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0.6180339887… | the seed — self-similar division of unity | ||
| 1.6180339887… | unity's division seen from the other side; |
||
| 1.2599210499… | volumetric ratio — doubling a cube's volume stretches its edge by k | ||
| — | 0.2599210499… | the fundamental radial increment | |
| 7 | volumes hidden when one unit volume doubles into eight | ||
| 3.5714285714… | the Perpetual Harmonic Oscillator ratio — the plenum's self-sustaining resonance | ||
| 296,575,967 | the fundamental count closing the system's counting interval |
Saṅkhya's most consequential geometric move is also its simplest: double a unit volume.
Doubling produces eight octants. One becomes observable; the other seven remain coherent — phase-locked, hidden, but fully real. The 7:1 partition is read as the deep structure behind several familiar dualities:
- hidden : observable
- mass : energy
- the coherent superposition behind a single measured outcome
The ratio propagates upward — into the atomic boundary
Combining the cascade yields physical magnitudes spanning 103 orders of magnitude:
| Scale | Expression | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Moolaprakriti (elementary quantum) | scale floor | |
| Nuclear radius scale | — | |
| Atomic radius scale |
|
|
| Purusha (maximum coherent ground state) | 0.9149879 |
The dimensional structure is tenfold: 3 spatial dimensions and 1 of time explicit, with 6 implicit — expressed through Guna interactions rather than extension.
The theory's central claim is that quantities modern physics measures, Saṅkhya derives — forward, from axioms alone:
| Quantity | Derivation | Derived value | Reference value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Self-similar ratio x | 0.618033988… | exact (axiomatic) | |
| PHO ratio | 3.571428571… | exact (axiomatic) | |
| Fundamental count C | 296,575,967 | exact (axiomatic) | |
| Planck mass | axiomatic cascade |
|
|
| Atomic radius scale |
|
|
|
| Purusha | 0.9149879 | maximum coherent ground state |
Note. Values are as presented in this repository's source documents. Comparisons with measured constants are the theory's own claims, offered for the reader's evaluation.
Any system that derives famous constants risks numerology. The discipline running through these documents is a strict ordering:
- Axioms first — state them exactly; compute the seed constants (x, k, C, PHO) before any question of physics arises.
- Build forward — derive step by step, each operation with its reasoning. Working backward from a known physical value is a violation.
- Document emergence — when a pattern appears (a ratio, a scale, a recurrence), record it as found, unprompted.
- Interpret last — only then compare emergent quantities against physics. A match is an observation about the mathematics, never its goal.
