Whether doing SandhyA Vandanam and Gayatri Japam by Brahmanas living abroad is fruitful?
It has to be admitted that place (desa) is an important aspect of performance of Karma which tilts heavily towards Bharata Desa. In the light of Bhagavad Gita, it is advisable to perform a karma and surrender the fruit to the Suporeme Lord ( Karma phala tyaga) instead of not doing anything (karma tyaga) irrespective of the fact that the karma performed outside is not as fruitful as done in Bharata Desa. SandhyA Vandanam is a Nitya Karma which has to be done as long as one is alive and fit. Even while some one is abroad, he has to do that sincerely. When a dvija lives abroad under certain inevitable circumstances, it is always preferable to perform the nitya karma to the extent possible rather than giving up the same totally, quoting the SAstras.
SandhyA Vandanam is nothing but chanting and celebrating the splendor and glory of the Supreme and his manifestations in different forms. The mental framework (bhAva) of the doer (KartA) is more important than the physical ritualistic aspects involved.
What is not possible through proper performance of VarNASrama dharma in such difficult circumstances can be compensated through devotionally chanting the mahAmantra. Thus, the deficiencies (lopas) of karmAnushthAna can be addressed through devotional surrender to the Supreme.
One should not condemn the changing yuga dharmas and those dvijAs who follow those, as the dvijAs are suited to the yuga concerned.

---SrI VishNu PurANa

In conclusion, Brahmanas should endeavor to do karmas to the extent possible and offer the fruit to BhagavAn in the true spirit of karma yoga. They should also daily do nAma japam and surrender unconditionally to BhagavAn. A vipra who does vihita kamAnushthAna should not find fault with others who do not do, as each one is driven by his own PrArabdha karma. He should not think that he is superior to someone who does not do kamAnushthAna properly nor to a dedicated Bhakta who is always immersed in the thought of the Supreme.

Sri Radha is none other than Sri Mahalakshmi, who out of great compassion, facilitates the individual Self to get the divine grace of the Supreme Bhagavan Sri Krishna, the glorious Yogesvara. According to the Scriptures, the best way to approach Sri Krishna is through first obtaining the grace of Sri Radha. Even a grave sinner gets redemption through her ceaseless divine grace and becomes purified to serve the lotus feet of Sri Radhakrishna. Let us not miss this opportunity to offer our humble and sincere prayers to the ever fresh and fragrant queen of Brindavan. On this most auspicious Radhashtami day, may Sri Radha shower her blessings on all.

VEDIC FRAMEWORK FOR OPEN ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE DESIGN
The Open Artificial Intelligence (Open AI) could be built on the Vedic framework which has two fundamental dimensions in terms of Satyam and Dharma.
The Taittiriya Upanishad inspires one to speak the truth and follow the path of righteousness.
सत्य॒व्वँद । धर्म॒ञ्चर ।
The following Sloka from Mahabharata highlights that the ultimate truth is one which benefits and ensures the welfare of all the beings.
सत्यस्य वचनं श्रेयः सत्यं ज्ञानं हितं भवेत् ।
यद्भूतहितमत्यन्तं तद्वै सत्यं परं मतम् ॥
From Satyam, the key qualities of Truth, Transparency, Governance and Openness emerge.
Dharma is embedded with the essential qualities of Righteousness, Self-discipline, Social well-being, Sacrifice, Impartiality,Rights,Duty and Responsibility.
Thus the twin Vedic Concepts of Satyam and dharma should be the core foundation for any Open AI design.
