== Golden rule ==
 
*[[W:Ethic of reciprocity]]
 
There are some arguments against the golden rule, but they are all very specific whereas its role is as an overall foundation upon which more specific systems are based, so it's only directly needed when these systems fail and conflict arises.
 
 
 
== Criteria ==
 
These criteria are based on the [[philosophy|philosophical principles]] that form the foundations of the project, and can be seen as a parallel concept to [[the path]] but applied to organisation instead of people. in other words, the criteria are designed to ensure growth and harmony opposing the natural entropic tendencies of the environment which would otherwise manifest as system degradation through the channelling of resource into goals other than the benefit of the organisation's members.
 
 
 
All the major spiritual traditions have some key values which are common to them all
 
*That all individuals are part of a unified Whole
 
*That increasing awareness is a essential path for all individuals
 
These fundamental common principles can apply in many contexts to act as a guide for making decisions which are best for both the self and the Whole. For more detail about the fundamental spiritual principles and the reasoning behind using them, see [[core values]]. More specific rules can be derived by considering the meaning of the fundamental principles within different contexts, the meanings we're mainly concerned with for the manifesto is the context of the organisational system.
 
 
 
The quest for ever-increasing awareness is linked to a number of other core values, as well as being at the root of many spiritual and philosophical traditions, which is why we have embraced it. Instead of the term philosophy, we could therefore also use the term "spirituality". We believe that an enlightened society needs to be made up of enlightened individuals, who seen as a whole, are also working toward increasing awareness.
 
 
 
From this holistic perspective, society becomes self-aware because it is the outer-most context (i.e. from the global context, global and local are one and the same). This gives rise to the recursive nature of the system and how the same system can be seen at work over all scales of operation, macrocosm and microcosm. From this perspective it really is a process of the planet becoming Self-aware, but in a very organised and intentional way.
 
 
 
== Self containment ==
 
[[Self containment]] means editable from within, and developed from within with no downtime
 
 
 
== Collaborative & Decentralised ==
 
Unified space that all can collaborate on in real time. Decentralised doesn't just refer to its physical robustness, but also means that the system must be part of the global [[web3]] movement rather than being a separate solution being developed by a small group. I.e. it's about steering existing bottom-up projects which already exhibit mass community-based momentum into a unified direction.
 
 
 
== Free and open source ==
 
 
 
== Prototype based ==
 
[[Prototype/Archetype]] is fully OO where all classes are instances "in the field"
 
 
 
== Peer to peer ==
 
not reliant on centralised servers for maintaining the global shared space
