  • This Website is Transitioning to Our New Website, See Below!
    Wednesday, March 4, 2026 - 13:01

    We are still in the process of moving 25 years' worth of materials from this older Universe Spirit website (about 1,000 pages) to this new Universe Spirit website.

    During this upgrade process, we will eventually move all new Way of the Universe philosophy materials still on the newer Universe Spirit website to its own site.

    For all the important information relating to this massive Universe Spirit upgrade, click here. At some point, we strongly recommend reading this detailed explanation of the massive upgrade underway, so you also understand our strategy and the reason for some of the confusion that you might experience with our ongoing edits on unedited pages transfered to our new website, remaining broken links, links still going to our old website, and sometimes conflicting terminology still found on pages at the new Universe Spirit website where we have not yet completed our editing upgrades.

    We hope to be fully done with this massive upgrade by January 2027.

    Here are the headlines we are debating for the article below:

    • “When your values have to survive reality (not just your group chat)”
    • “Be kind. Also: stop letting free-riders eat the future.”
    • “Community is sacred. Accountability is also sacred. Surprise!”
    • “If you love the commons, you have to defend it. Yes, with rules.”
    • "You can’t meditate your way out of bad incentives.”
    • "Consent culture + consequence culture = adulthood”
    • “Justice without systems is just a slogan with a nice font”
    • “We want peace. We also want receipts.”
    • “Friendly reminder: the planet has limits. It’s not a vibe.”
    • “Soft heart, strong boundaries: the only sustainable combo”
    • “When you realize ‘being right’ isn’t as useful as being effective”

  • The Way of the Universe's New Principles of Right Action and Right Attitude
    Saturday, February 21, 2026 - 11:33

    They are not anything like the old Buddhist concepts of right action and right attitude.

    You may see smart progressive corporations bringing them into their corporate cultures. They are also useful for building super-strong families, communities, businesses, and careers that must deal with the harsh realities of the 21st century.

    The Right Actions and Right Attitudes could even be useful for interviewing potential new members for a 21st-century survival community. They are the set of tools that today's younger generations will need to survive the ecological and other polycrisis messes left to them by the older generations. Some individuals use the following list of Right Actions and Right Attitudes as a quick personal life success inventory. 

    They are so useful we probably should have used one of these other, more controversial titles for this article:

    1. 24 Rules That Actually Survive Reality.

    2. Stop Getting Played by the Future: The Practical Guide to Living in a World of Feedback, Limits, and Power.

    3. Cooperation Without Naivety: How to Build Trust, Stop Free Riders, and Still Keep Your Soul.

    4. Planetary Limits, Social Chaos, and You: A Short Guide to Thriving Without Delusion.

  • The Best Way to Explore this Website is to Start Practicing the Universe Principles
    Sunday, March 23, 2025 - 20:28

    "The Universe Principles are the meta-principles of successful and sustainable universe evolution. Within them is the universe's core wisdom concerning what the Universe has about sustainable success for living systems over the last 13.8 billion years. As a fully integrated system, within them, you will also find almost every life-affirming human virtue and society's wisest philosophical, moral, and ethical principles for keeping individuals and groups sustainably thriving and cooperating. They will help you create an optimal and "right relationship to and with reality" and to the realities of successful and sustainable living, successful evolution on earth and out into the universe." Lawrence Wollersheim

     

     

    The very best way to see if the Way of the Universe tools, as presented on this website, will significantly improve your success and your life's meaningfulness is simple. Start practicing the short version of the Univers Principles as found below in a printable version. If you simply start practicing these principles and watch how they work to improve your life, you will not have to read at this time about how and why they work you will know they work. You can always go back later and read our intermediate and advanced materials that will explain all of the reasons they work and their background in evolutionary science.

  • If This Our Older Website Disappears, Here's the Easy Fix

  • As of 12.12.2024 Universe Spirit is going through MAJOR upgrades and the creation of a new website!
    Thursday, December 12, 2024 - 16:33

    During the transition to our new website and upgraded mission, some links on this website will take you to our new website, which is also under construction. Some links on our new website will also take you back to this older website. More below the image...

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    We estimate the transition to our new website will take 6 to 12 months. Why we are reorganizing all of the Universe Spirit materials under the central theme of "Discover the Way of the Universe" is partially explained here.

    During this new theme evolution process, we have to fix broken links and make many additions, edits, and deletions to bring all of our older materials up to date and in alignment with our new Discover the Way of the Universe theme.  We still have to transfer about 1,000 pages from the old website to our new one.

    Our new website is definitely not yet ready for the general public or daily operations. However, we allow some current members, advisors, and visitors to check out our new website from specific links on this website.

    During this mission and website transition, we highly recommend you click here and go to our Universe Spirit Facebook page and Follow this page.

    When you follow the Universe Spirit Facebook page, you will automatically be sent our newest posts during this transition. Those posts will help keep you focused, motivated, and connected with our mission's evolutionary progress.

    Click here now and take a quick look at all of the thoughtful and inspiring great posts on our Universe Spirit Facebook page!

    Please note that our Universe Day International Facebook feed is currently on your right. We hope to convert it to our Universe Spirit Facebook feed soon. (The Universe Day International movement is part of our Universe Spirit non-profit organization.

    If you are a new visitor, be sure to sign up here! About once every several months, we will send you our free newsletter, and we will consider you a new member of this fantastic, evolving organization.

    As you move between this website and our new website during construction, you will discover numerous incongruities in language phrasing as we work towards smoothing everything out to integrate with our new Way of the Universe theme. You should be able to understand how even our older materials support our new theme, even though the older language that has not been upgraded yet --- will be clunky.

Inspiration for Evolutioneers

A new creation story has evolved in the secular scientific community, the equivalent in modern times to the creation stories of antiquity. This creation story differs from the traditional Eurasian creation stories much more than these differ from each other. It seems destined to become the universal story taught to every child who receives formal education in the modern form anywhere in the world...By means of this story the new paradigm of the human is established. With its support we can awaken in the morning and know where we are. We can answer the questions of our children. We can interpret suffering, integrate knowledge, guide education. We can have a context in which life can function in a meaningful way.Air Max Flair KPU
