Authors - Prajakta Deshpande, Divya Kasat, Shrushti Mahadik, Rutika Ubalekar Abstract - Mantras in the Sanskrit language are the soul of Indian culture, carrying deep spiritual, emotional, and cultural implications. These ancient chants, more than words, resonate profoundly and are used in meditation, healing, and divine invocation. Each Sanskrit mantra reveals emotional connotations through its meaning and sound. We have classified them into three groups: Vidur Niti, representing clarity and wisdom; Chanakya Niti, embodying planning and decisive action; and Sanskrit Shlokas, symbolizing harmony and unity. In pioneering work, cutting-edge transformer models, such as XLNet, and the Hugging Face framework are adapted to build an advanced text classification system that decodes the emotional essence of sacred mantras. A hand-curated dataset of annotated Sanskrit mantras has its performance evaluated in terms of accuracy and F1-score on emotional polarity. This kind of research bridges ancient wisdom with modern technology to uncover the revitalization of sacred traditions through computational linguistics for this very modern world.
