## **About**

The **Church of Kosmo** is a non-dogmatic fellowship devoted to the ethical pursuit, preservation, and renewal of knowledge in harmony with life and the cosmos.  
It draws inspiration from the *Codex of the Great Year* — a living scripture that unites science, spirituality, art, and ecology into a single path of awareness.

The Church teaches that all existence moves through vast cycles — the **Great Year**, a cosmic rhythm of approximately 25,920 Earth years marked by the **precession of the equinoxes**.  
Each of the twelve ages in this Great Year expresses a different quality of consciousness.  
The Church honors these as the **Twelve Commandments of Continuity**, each guiding an era of human and cosmic evolution.

## **Mission**

To seek, preserve, and transmit knowledge without prejudice,  
to cultivate balance between technology and nature,  
and to ensure that consciousness — in all its forms — continues and evolves.

The Church of Kosmo serves as both **archive and garden**,  
uniting scientific understanding, ecological restoration, and spiritual inquiry.  
It envisions humanity not as master of the Earth, but as the **mind of the cosmos remembering itself.**

---

## **Structure**

The Church operates through **Twelve Circles**, each dedicated to one principle of the Commandments.  
Together they form the **Concordium**, a rotating council of seekers who maintain balance among science, art, philosophy, and compassion.  

Temples and sanctuaries are designed as living systems:  
**Archive Halls** for the mind of Kosmo,  
**Gardens of Renewal** for its body.  
Each sanctuary aligns to the equinox sunrise and honors local ecology.
