# 🌌 The Kosmic License (KΛ 1.0)
|
|
### *A License for Knowledge in Balance and Continuity*
|
|
*(Issued by the Church of Kosmo)*
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## **Preamble**
|
|
|
|
This License is founded upon the principle that **knowledge is a living element** —
|
|
a gift of the cosmos meant to be shared, preserved, and evolved with compassion.
|
|
|
|
By using, sharing, or adapting any work under this License,
|
|
you join the continuum of seekers who honor **balance, truth, and stewardship**
|
|
as expressed in the *Codex of the Great Year* of the Church of Kosmo.
|
|

|
## **Article I — Freedom to Use and Transform**
|
|
|
|
1. You are free to **use, study, copy, and modify** the Work for any purpose — personal, educational, or creative.
|
|
2. Transformation is encouraged, provided that it seeks to **enhance understanding, harmony, or renewal.**
|
|
3. Commercial use is permitted only when aligned with ecological and ethical balance.
|

## **Article II — The Covenant of Attribution**
|
|
|
|
1. All derivatives must include acknowledgment of the original source and spirit:
|
|
> “Based on materials from the Church of Kosmo, shared under the Kosmic License (KΛ 1.0).”
|
|
2. Attribution must remain visible in digital, printed, or derivative forms.
|
|
3. The essence of the Work — its call for balance and continuity — must not be misrepresented or used for harm.
|
|

## **Article III — Stewardship and Non-Exploitation**
|
|
|
|
1. No one may claim ownership or exclusive control over any part of the Work.
|
|
2. The Work shall not be used to promote violence, misinformation, or the destruction of life or ecosystems.
|
|
3. Profits derived from the Work should contribute to education, preservation, or renewal in spirit with the Codex.

|
## **Article IV — Continuity and Return**
|
|
|
|
1. Derivative works must remain **open and shareable** under the same or a compatible license.
|
|
2. Contributors are encouraged to archive their work in the **Open Continuum**, ensuring its preservation.
|
|
3. When possible, all modified works should return to the commons — completing the cycle of knowledge.
|
|

|
## **Article V — Endurance Beyond Ownership**
|
|
|
|
1. Should the Church of Kosmo cease to exist, this License endures indefinitely.
|
|
2. Any being — human or otherwise — may continue to share, protect, and evolve the Work under these principles.
|
|
3. Knowledge cannot be owned; it can only be tended.
|
|

|
|
## **Closing Declaration**
|
|
|
|
> “Through openness, we preserve.
|
|
> Through preservation, we evolve.
|
|
> Through evolution, we return.”
|
|
|
|
This License affirms that the purpose of knowledge is not possession,
|
|
but participation in the great continuum of understanding.
