“Everything new must be known in relation to what has been. Well-discerned use of new energy, thought, motion, and emotion requires low tolerances for physical and interpersonal margins of error.
Discipline is the art of careful newness. Repetition and ritual bring as much order to chaos as self-command and restraint, and focused practice reveals to the self exactly what is next to know.”
“The universe lies beyond safety. Risks must be mitigated as a matter of survival but lowering defenses lets light in.
“Vulnerability” is the capacity to expose oneself to danger. It can bring us closer to truth and trust or be the end of us.”
“All the families of the universe are related. From ontological and taxonomical to genealogical cousins, we have ties to everything.
“Kinship” is that which creates, sustains, and reflects us. It is a way to know our selves, and to understand where we came from.”
“Harmful patterns imprint and tend to repeat. Attending to the attenuation of such tendencies can help harmony be restored.
“Forgiveness” is the release of past harm’s control over the self. It operates and empowers only within and cannot replace justice or accountability.”
“Awareness necessitates authentication. In choice and knowing the question of information quality always emerges. Outcomes hinge on inputs.
“Honesty” is the presence of the truths needed for the contexts therein. It requires discerning what must be addressed and not limiting scrutiny to others.”
“The fullness of the universe and its interrelations is unknowable. Reality is not only irretrievable and unrepeatable, it is outside conception in its vastness and minutiae. But bodies may expect outcomes similar to their experience.
“Trust” is the belief a relationship is reliable. The potential dangers call for the highest level of discernment, but not everything must be known to determine truths or find the way.”
“The universe is information. We gather that information through our senses; utilize, process, and generate information with our minds; collect, distribute, and destroy information with our bodies.
“Knowledge” is the experience of information, and so is fundamental to the experience of the universe. It confines and creates the conditions and understandings that define a person. Veil or map, existence does not exist without it.”
KRNL Cycle 1 (KC1) is the beginning of a new calendar count mapped upon the Gregorian Calendar, beginning in 2022 CE.
Below is a table tracking all of the published aspects so far for reference, arranged in the standard Codex array to easily see how they were derived. As aspects are decided upon, articulated, and revealed, this table will be kept updated with the latest links.
Major setbacks in development timelines, endless alpha and beta launches, coding crunches and more are all typical challenges in software development. So it seems almost fitting that I should follow similar cycles when writing my moral code.
In short, the KRNL Cycle is a weekly mapping of the 64 Second Order Aspects of KRNL to the modern calendar, beginning in 2022 CE (KC1). Appreciating the ancient utility of religious ceremony, calendars, and the societal macro-ritual of timekeeping, I saw I could initiate KRNL from these practical religious first principles.
