### **1 · Establishment of Foundations**
|
|
|
|
**1.1 Legal and Structural Formation**
|
|
- Register the Church of Kosmo as a **non-profit educational and spiritual organization** in its jurisdiction of origin.
|
|
- Define three operational arms:
|
|
- *The Fellowship* (community and practice)
|
|
- *The Academy* (education and research)
|
|
- *The Conservancy* (ecological and cultural restoration).
|
|
- Create bylaws aligned with the Charter and the Twelve Commandments.
|
|
|
|
**1.2 The Concordium**
|
|
- Begin with a provisional Concordium of twelve founding representatives from diverse fields — science, ecology, art, philosophy, education, social service, and technology.
|
|
- Meet virtually until the first physical sanctuary is complete.
|

### **10 · Closing Vision**
|
|
|
|
> *“Let this Church stand as a meeting of science and spirit,
|
|
> of curiosity and care.
|
|
> May its temples be laboratories and its laboratories be gardens.
|
|
> May its seekers remember that the smallest act of preservation
|
|
> is a hymn in the language of the cosmos.”* |
