### *Keepers of Balance, Knowledge, and Continuity*

|
||
## **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.
