Stable enough to carry · open enough to change

The Living Canon

A statement of belief, a fictional parable and a proposed practice make different claims on a reader. Their place in one collection does not give them one kind of authority.

The v4 Creed is a published proposal, not a report of communal adoption. Preserved Code entries retain their own revision numbers. Newest does not automatically mean best.

  1. I

    Foundation

    The few commitments and symbols necessary to identify the tradition.

  2. II

    Living Canon

    Citable texts intended for repeated use, revision, disagreement, and supersession.

  3. III

    Practice

    Proposed forms to try, adapt or decline. No completed trials are claimed.

  4. IV

    Commentary

    Arguments and interpretations that may be valuable without becoming doctrine.

  5. V

    Culture and Form

    Proposed symbols and sound, with the earlier editions available for comparison.

How change enters

No silent replacement.

A substantive revision keeps dated reasons and a route to the earlier words. The historical reader includes the v1 release, the v2 baseline and the v3 editorial corpus published inside website v2.

The editorial principles describe correction and necessary redaction. Publication is founder-controlled. This AI-drafted guide was revised on 5 September 2026; its previous source remains available.
