The Manifesto of the PureLand Omniverse
A Word from the Creators and Guardians of Dharma:
We, the PureLand team, inspired by the teachings of the Buddha and modern technologies, are creating a space where everyone—gamers, scholars, or truth-seekers—becomes a traveler on the path to Enlightenment. Following the Bodhisattva vow, we aim to guide all beings toward liberation, transforming suffering into wisdom through mindful gameplay.
As the great master Nagarjuna said:
“May bodhicitta, precious and sublime,
Arise where it has not yet arisen;
And where it has arisen, may it not fade,
But grow and flourish evermore.
As long as space endures,
As long as there are beings to be found,
May I remain here,
To dispel the sorrows of the world.”
Our vow is embodied in game quests, where every action—from helping another player to planting a virtual tree—becomes a step toward harmony, leading to the Pure Lands of Buddha Amitabha. We, the sons and daughters of Dharma, invite you to join this journey.
1. Vision: The PureLand Omniverse
We are creating the PureLand Omniverse—an ecosystem of 21+ metaverses, each reflecting a unique spiritual or cultural tradition (AshokaVerse, ShaolinPathVerse, SanskritSamadhiVerse, GreatRingVerse, VeganVerse, ChessVerse, and more). This is a space where players, guided by the Four Noble Truths and the Noble Eightfold Path, transform suffering into liberation through mindful gameplay.
PureLand is not just a game but a tool for awakening, where virtual and physical worlds enrich each other. Buddhist practices with a history of over 2,500 years (meditation, medicine, qigong, sutra study) are woven into game mechanics, while cutting-edge technologies—quantum, Web3 (Solana, Dfinity), neural networks, IoT—serve the Dharma, fostering a society of abundance and co-creation.
The game’s infrastructure includes an autonomous and sustainable life-support system for the gaming community, built on the principles of Dharma and Buddhist economics: the wisdom of ancient times combined with the forefront of science, including quantum technologies. In the physical realm, using the best available health-preserving and eco-friendly technologies, we create autonomous eco-settlements and cities—Places of the Path or “Buddha Fields”—pure dimensions crafted by the enlightened. Thus, the technologies of Buddhist science create a digital and physical space where technology serves the awakening of consciousness, not mere entertainment.
Players do not escape reality but transform it through mindfulness: each quest (e.g., planting a virtual garden) can lead to real-world actions (eco-technological modernization of eco-settlements), and each meditation improves health, tracked via biometrics. Every player participates in the development of an indie game as a tester or developer.
Goals:
Each player receives a Buddava—a game account reflecting their spiritual progress, skills, and community contributions. It stores acquired NFT artifacts, certificates, and diplomas (e.g., from training programs at the University of Nalanda or Shaolin Monastery). Here, science and Dharma merge into a unified system of knowledge, and players become creators of a new reality grounded in compassion, wisdom, and nonviolence.
In co-creation and harmony with nature, we collectively build a path to liberation from the suffering of aging, illness, and death for all. Integrative Buddhist medicine, incorporating the latest advancements, is applied throughout the game’s infrastructure and neuro-spiritual interfaces, enabling deep immersion and real-time feedback (tracking progress, energy levels, and the health of all organs and systems). This allows for personalized learning trajectories, game mechanics, and health programs (including nutrition and training regimes) to achieve healthy longevity, Enlightenment, and immortality.
Inspired by the teachings of the Pure Lands (Sukhavati) of Buddha Amitabha, the Buddhist Omniverse serves as a skillful means (upaya), where mindful gameplay rooted in Dharma transforms suffering into liberation, and collaboration fosters a society of abundance.
Why is this more than a game?
In PureLand, there are no losers—only stages on the path. KARMA tokens cannot be lost, only mindfully spent. The goal is not victory but infinite self-improvement through the gamification of spiritual practices, ecological initiatives, and creativity. Players can compete in:
Players foster mutual support, collaboratively developing the game’s infrastructure. Dharma teachers, during the design and implementation of game mechanics, ensure that proposed additions, including games and quests, promote the development of wisdom and compassion. Game practices help deepen the understanding of Dharma and progress along the Noble Eightfold Path. Rewards (unique NFTs and KARMA tokens) and statuses are not for showing superiority but for motivation, enhancing mindfulness and co-creation, and inspiring others by example.
Access:
PureLand is accessible via browsers, VR headsets, mobile devices (iOS, Android), and IoT consoles (Torch of Dharma, Aurovisor, Vimanas), which enhance immersion and track progress.
Players acquire consoles through participation in ethical R&D quests or by donating to support game infrastructure development. Such actions leave a karmic imprint, reflected in the game account as KARMA tokens and NFT achievement tokens, placing the player on a waitlist for a console (6 months to a year during the prototype phase, up to 6 months during Alpha testing, and 1 month during Beta testing).
2. Philosophical Foundation: The Four Noble Truths
2.1. Suffering Exists
Aging, illness, and death are companions of human existence. In a world torn apart by the “economy of disasters,” these sufferings are amplified, fueling illusions and dividing people. PureLand acknowledges this truth, inviting players to see suffering not as a curse but as a teacher pointing the way to liberation from these afflictions.
2.2. The Cause of Suffering—The Three Poisons
Greed, anger, and ignorance are fueled by exploitative systems that encourage avarice and destroy harmony. In the Omniverse, we dispel these illusions, replacing the current “economy of disasters” with Buddhist economics, where every action serves the well-being of all beings. Instead of hoarding for the ego, we offer generosity for unity.
2.3. Liberation Is Possible
Enlightenment is the cessation of suffering. Through mindful gameplay, players overcome illusions and imperfections, growing physically and spiritually. PureLand employs Buddhist science and the best available health-preserving and eco-friendly technologies (quantum technologies, integrative medicine) to create a space where each step brings players closer to the Pure Lands of Buddha Amitabha (the Heavenly Kingdom or Paradise, in other terminologies).
2.4. The Path to Liberation—The Noble Eightfold Path
The Noble Eightfold Path, taught by the Buddha—the “Unsurpassed Teacher of gods and humans”—is the heart of our game. According to the Buddha, the path to the cessation of suffering must be “cultivated.” To cultivate this path, the gaming community uses the tools of “Trisiksha” (Three Trainings): ethics (sila), concentration (samadhi), and wisdom (prajna).
Right view, intention, speech, action, livelihood, effort, mindfulness, and concentration are woven into every mechanic: from compassionate quests and meditations in virtual temples to prototyping and creating real-world infrastructure objects for the game. PureLand takes on the mission of spreading Buddhist economics, uniting material, mental, and moral well-being, across the world. Players collaborate, build communities, advance Buddhist science, overcome illusions, and progress toward Enlightenment and immortality for the benefit of all beings.
3. Mission: A Society of Abundance and Co-Creation
PureLand is not just a game but a heroic saga of creating a new world built on Buddhist economics. Here, every action matters—whether planting a virtual garden, helping another player, or testing the game—your efforts earn KARMA tokens, strengthening an economy of generosity. Farms and factories created in the game produce real, eco-friendly products. Children and adults spend time meaningfully, developing their abilities and meeting their needs while designing and building game infrastructure, creating new locations and artworks. All of this is organized as non-fungible tokens (NFTs), which players own under the principles of Buddhist economics, participating in the platform’s decentralized autonomous organization (DAO).
Buddhist science inspires: Quantum technologies for eco-technological modernization of human activity, eco-friendly life-support systems to meet all vital needs of the gaming community, quantum wave genetics (Buddhist medicine) for absolute health and immortality, and vimanas for overcoming distances and interstellar travel—these are the fruits of mindfulness, aimed at preserving nature, achieving Enlightenment, and saving all sentient beings.
The community shapes the future: The PureLand Omniverse is a convergence of physical, augmented, and virtual realities in a shared online space, grounded in Dharma norms and Web3 technologies (blockchain, smart contracts, NFTs, neural networks, DAO, and dApps—decentralized autonomous organizations and applications). It is a bridge between the real and physical worlds with near-limitless possibilities. Through the DAO, the PureLand gaming community can participate in shaping and managing the game and in-game projects, voting and contributing to initiatives that bring the Pure Lands of Amitabha (the Heavenly Kingdom) closer. KARMA, PureLand’s native cryptocurrency, and all in-game assets are stored on the blockchain (Solana and Dfinity, with role distribution).
4. Core Principles
A. The Game as a Spiritual Practice
The developers of the Omniverse’s transformative games—Tathagatas and spiritual practitioners—have created a remedy for mental afflictions and a therapy for the mind. The game is a tool for developing various human abilities for a better, happier life. They have gifted us new worlds, which we begin to perceive only as we approach health and Enlightenment. On the path to Enlightenment, all games in the Omniverse adhere to two key postulates of Buddhist methodology from the Shaolin tradition:
“Unity of Spirit and Body” (Ken Zen Ichi Nyo - Japanese)
“Ken” symbolizes the body, “Zen” the spirit. We often think spirit and body are separate, but in reality, they are deeply connected. When we are surprised, our heart races. When we are ill, not only does our body weaken, but our mood and interest in activity also decline. These examples show how closely linked our body and spirit are. During gameplay, maintaining a balance between training the body and spirit prevents the effects of cyber-addiction. This is the key to harmonious development—simultaneous transformation of spirit and body, unlocking our hidden potential. This is the Unity of Spirit and Body.
The first postulate teaches the development of both spirit and body. For example, in ChessVerse, players cultivate the “Unity of Spirit and Body” by solving strategic challenges (training the mind) and performing qigong exercises in VR (training the body). In RescueVerse or ShaolinPathVerse, the “Unity of Strength and Love” manifests in quests where players use strength (survival skills) and love (helping others) to save virtual beings.
“Unity of Strength and Love” (Riki Ai Fu Ni - Japanese)
The second postulate of the Shaolin tradition embedded in the game teaches that life cannot be happy with only love and compassion; intellect and strength are also necessary. If you see someone being harmed and wish to help out of love and compassion, you will be powerless without courage and strength. Conversely, strength without love and compassion is mere cruelty. To combat evil and injustice, you must first distinguish right from wrong, then assess the situation and apply your skills with bold resistance.
Shaolin Patriarch Doshin So said: “Justice without strength is weakness. Strength without justice is cruelty.” For successful game practice, you must harmonize your strength and love, unite intellect and compassion, and use them as the foundation of your actions. You must make your life happy and stable while actively contributing to peace and societal prosperity.
Buddava (Game Account)—A Digital Reflection of Your Path:
The Buddava tracks:
Educational Environment:
Programs of the University of Nalanda and Shaolin Monastery:
To ensure high-quality education (in any form), regularly updating and expanding methods and forms of game-based learning and development, the programs of the University of Nalanda and its affiliate, the Shaolin Monastery, are applied:
Education quality is measured through the Buddava system, which tracks player progress (e.g., number of studied sutras, meditation hours) and uses AI to adapt individual learning paths through tasks and quests to maintain motivation.
B. Technology in Service of Dharma
Technologies in PureLand create sustainable life-support systems, ensuring uninterrupted access to the game, meeting players’ vital needs, and delivering an unprecedented gaming experience.
Only the best available health-preserving and eco-friendly technologies are used to create autonomous and sustainable (ecologically responsible) life-support systems for the gaming community in any terrestrial condition and interstellar space.
Quantum Nanotechnology:
Web3 Infrastructure:
Quantum Internet of Things (Quantum IoT):
Combines quantum technologies (and computing) with the Internet of Things (IoT) in gaming consoles, complementing Web3 in terms of decentralization and security.
These technologies are already tested and in the integration phase within the game infrastructure, including prototype IoT consoles that use biometrics for personalized gameplay (e.g., Torch of Dharma, Stupa of the Bodhisattva, Cloak of Dharma, Aurovisor, Bhu-Vimana). The infrastructure and life-support system continuously evolve through R&D, eco-technological modernization of eco-settlements, and retreat center construction.
The Quantum IoT expands: other consoles and vimanas are under research. All technologies align with Dharma principles, including zero-knowledge encryption to ensure the privacy of meditations and biometric data.
C. Health and Immortality
Integrative Buddhist Medicine:
Goals:
D. Ecological Harmony
Eco-Friendly Technologies:
These technologies integrate with Buddhist economics, incentivizing players through KARMA tokens to engage in eco-friendly actions.
5. Infrastructure of the Pure Lands
A. Virtual Spaces
The PureLand Omniverse is a unique ecosystem uniting an unlimited number of metaverses (currently 21+), each adhering to Dharma principles (nonviolence, mindfulness, compassion) and interconnected through Buddhist economics, embodied in the game’s tokenomics with KARMA tokens.
These metaverses vary in content, structure, and target audience, catering to diverse groups (Buddhists, Christians, Muslims, Jews, vegans, rescuers, chess players) to provide a tailored experience aligned with their spiritual and practical needs.
Examples of Spaces:
In Monastery Hubs, players can attend VR sutra lectures, earning KARMA for each, or meditate in 3D temples, receiving KARMA per session. In Healing Gardens, players grow virtual plants that turn into real harvests at phyto-factories, earning KARMA for the yield. And so on.
The number of virtual spaces is limitless, their diversity and uniqueness driven by generative AI, which creates personalized spaces in real-time based on each player’s preferences, progress, unique abilities, and talents. Generative AI analyzes player preferences: for example, a chess player in ChessVerse gets 3D boards with tailored challenges, while a meditator receives a personal temple with mantras.
Levels of Reality (e.g., in ShaolinPathVerse):
B. Physical Nodes
Places of the Path—autonomous eco-settlements, including:
Products: All facilities have digital twins, and products (food, consoles, clothing) are accompanied by NFTs, ensuring quality (proprietary certification system) and authenticity via blockchain.
Funding: Crowdfunding via Give.asia, Weeboon, and DAO grants.
Eco-technological modernization of eco-settlements and monasteries in Thailand and Southeast Asia will begin in 2025, with the first proprietary center in Thailand opening by 2027.
Access: Players with the “Master of Dharma” level (5000+ KARMA) or the “Noble Path” NFT award receive retreat invitations. “Builders of Dharma” gain unlimited retreat and residency access, while holders of unique NFTs like “Patriarch of the Pure Lands,” “Architect of the Pure Lands,” or “Innovator of the Pure Lands” are invited with their families and creative teams.
C. Technologies for Players
Health-preserving and life-extension technologies (aiming for biological immortality) based on integrative Buddhist medicine are central to the PureLand Omniverse ecosystem, implemented across the gaming community’s life-support system, including both physical and virtual infrastructure.
These technologies focus on achieving holistic health (physical, spiritual, emotional, and social well-being) and biological immortality by integrating traditional Buddhist practices, modern science, and game mechanics, ensuring player health in both physical and virtual spaces.
Overview:
Technologies based on Buddhist science and Dharma principles (nonviolence, mindfulness, compassion) surpass market alternatives in quality, leveraging nanotechnology and focusing on spiritual growth, eco-friendliness, and a sustainable future.
D. Technologies for the World
Eco-friendly technologies in the PureLand Omniverse play a key role in maintaining peace and harmony, purifying the environment, and restoring planetary ecosystems and biodiversity. These technologies align with Dharma principles (nonviolence, mindfulness, compassion for nature), integrate with Buddhist economics, and are implemented in both physical and virtual infrastructures.
Eco-Friendly Technologies in PureLand Include:
These technologies support gameplay tied to ecological projects, incentivizing players through KARMA tokens to promote environmental mindfulness.
Resulting Symbiosis:
6. KARMA Economy
Karma is action, where cause and effect are inseparable. Inspired by the Buddha’s Sanhita Sutta, we classify karma:
Accumulated karma is evaluated by algorithms based on these criteria and reflected in the Buddava (game account), influencing the player’s status and opportunities. If a player acts out of greed (e.g., hoarding KARMA tokens without helping others) or violates right speech (e.g., harsh or false statements in public or chats), their Buddava accumulates “dark karma,” limiting access to advanced quests (e.g., participation in the Council of Star Navigation). Light karma (e.g., helping in RescueVerse or practicing generosity) unlocks rare NFTs like “Amitabha Mantra” or “Sukhavati Lotus.”
Tokenomics (on Solana and Dfinity):
The four types of karma are stored in the repository of karmic seeds (Alaya-vijnana).
Earning KARMA Tokens:
KARMA tokens are rewards for actions embodying Dharma principles (nonviolence, mindfulness, compassion) and contributing to spiritual growth, ecological well-being, and infrastructure development. Each successful in-game action or step on the Noble Eightfold Path leads to liberation from the cycle of rebirths and is rewarded with KARMA tokens, reinforcing the path to Enlightenment and abundance. Earning is divided into four inspiring paths, each opening new horizons:
6.1. In-Game Missions: Play to Earn!
Hone your skills and collect rewards by diving into exciting quests across metaverses! Test the game and consoles, refine strategic mastery, or practice meditation with VR retreats. Complete tasks (from overcoming illusions in the Samsara World to creating healing gardens), enhance your Buddava, and earn KARMA tokens for each step toward Enlightenment.
6.2. Social Missions: Share to Earn!
Spread kindness and reap karmic fruits! Invite friends to PureLand, share your successes on social media, and watch your light karma grow. Build communities, translate sutras or koans, and earn bonus KARMA tokens for strengthening social bonds and spreading Dharma, inspiring others on the path of mindfulness.
6.3. Creative Missions: Create to Earn!
Craft in-game objects, scenarios, music, and art content. Participate in developing locations and game infrastructure. Advancing innovation through ethical R&D (e.g., developing neurotechnologies or consoles) grants access to cutting-edge gadgets and doubles your merits!
6.4. Ecological Missions: Save to Earn!
Leave a mark in the real world and accumulate merits! Engage in rescue missions and ecological initiatives—turn waste into graphene at factories in Places of the Path, plant trees, build farms with real harvests, or support retreats. Apply Buddhist practices (qigong, meditation) in daily life, sync with virtual quests, advance Buddhist science and economics, and create positive karmic imprints. Your real-world actions (from cleaning nature to implementing Buddhist technologies like eco-technological modernization of eco-settlements and monasteries) directly impact the game, earning KARMA tokens and supporting ecosystem restoration.
A detailed list of activities with rewards and ways to spend KARMA tokens is available in the White Paper and Game Design Document (GDD).
KARMA tokens are issued as SPL tokens on Solana for fast transactions (e.g., NFT purchases) and stored on Dfinity for long-term data (e.g., karmic achievement records), synchronized via a cross-chain bridge. Further details are provided in the White Paper.
Burn Mechanism: 10% of tokens are burned upon NFT purchases, with new tokens issued via DAO to prevent inflation.
7. Role of Buddhist Economics
Buddhist Economics—The Foundation of the Pure Lands:
The PureLand Omniverse unites all its metaverses (AshokaVerse, ChessVerse, VeganVerse, etc.), connected by a unified Buddhist economy—a system where players become true owners of the game and its benefits through a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO). Together, they create and develop infrastructure, embodying Dharma principles (nonviolence, mindfulness, compassion). They design new game locations, develop cutting-edge technologies, create high-tech gadgets (IoT consoles), and produce artworks that become non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and serve as skillful means (upaya kushala). Supported by Web3 technologies (e.g., Solana or Dfinity blockchain), PureLand’s Buddhist economics funds global projects like ecosystem restoration and eco-settlement support.
Eco-Friendly and Spiritual Infrastructure:
The PureLand Omniverse is unique in its infrastructure and autonomous life-support system, built on the most eco-friendly and advanced quantum technologies. Virtual spaces (dojos, creative labs) and physical nodes (Sukhavati Retreat Residences) integrate renewable energy (fuel-free graphene generators), autonomous phyto-factories, and eco-friendly solutions (biomimetic filters, waste-to-graphene recycling). These systems ensure player health, promote longevity, and advance biological immortality through integrative Buddhist medicine (epigenetic technologies, linguistic-wave genetics). The entire infrastructure adheres to Dharma norms, where a pure land is not only a state of a peaceful mind but also a tangible space of harmony created by the gaming community.
Global Harmony Project:
The gaming and Buddhist community joins forces to realize a global project—creating the Pure Lands (or Heavenly Kingdom, Paradise on Earth). Through Buddhist economics and KARMA tokenomics, players restore ecosystems (mangrove planting, regenerative agriculture), foster cross-cultural social bonds (Buddhists, Christians, Muslims), and support ecological initiatives via crowdfunding and syncing virtual quests with real projects (KarmaCycle). Through DAO, players vote on funding new metaverses or ecological projects, distributing up to 1 million KARMA monthly, fostering mutual understanding, peace, and harmony.
Access to Knowledge and Technology:
Buddhist economics grants everyone access to a treasury of knowledge and technology: from ancient practices (qigong, meditation) to the latest quantum science advancements (quantum energy, neural networks). Players can learn, participate in ethical R&D, and fairly distribute benefits, products, and services. The Omniverse ensures daily KARMA token rewards for all participants—from developers to newcomers—for their contributions to spiritual growth, ecology, and innovation. Regardless of location or occupation, anyone can access the gaming community’s benefits: quantum medicine for painless longevity, blockchain for transparency, or neurotechnologies for mental health. Thought leaders and platforms (DharmaVoice) disseminate ancient wisdom and modern innovations, making them accessible to all.
Right to Health and Immortality:
PureLand affirms every individual’s fundamental right to health, interpreted as the right to painless longevity and the pursuit of biological immortality, through integrative Buddhist medicine and technology. The integration of health-preserving technologies and Buddhist practices enhances the community’s physical, spiritual, and emotional well-being. The Omniverse becomes a bridge between ancient wisdom and humanity’s future, where everyone can achieve harmony, health, and Enlightenment.
8. Path into the Game

C. Social Graph
In the PureLand Metaverse, the social graph unites all who aspire to Enlightenment, harmony, and liberation from suffering. It is an egalitarian community where every player who activates their Buddava becomes an equal co-creator and guardian of the game. There are no privileged—only those whose actions, inspired by the Noble Eightfold Path, contribute to the collective good. From Masters of Dharma to nature protectors, from children to sages, each member is part of the great Sangha, where support, compassion, and co-creation build the Pure Lands. Together, we create a world of abundance, free from violence and egoism, bringing happiness and causes for happiness to all beings. Players can form guilds (e.g., “Defenders of VeganVerse”) to collaborate on ecological quests, earning bonus KARMA tokens for teamwork.
9. Commitments to Players

Let’s Create the Future Together
The Pure Lands Omniverse is a Great Game of shared practice and creation. It connects digital Worlds, real actions, knowledge, art, research, communities, the series and physical Nodes for one purpose: to create conditions for the manifestation of Pure Lands here and now.
We are not creating a new Teaching and do not claim ownership of Dharma. We seek and create modern skillful means through which a person can learn, practice, strengthen health, help living beings, create, and verify the Path in their own experience.
A game, technology, organization, economic mechanism or work of art is a means. Its value is determined by whether it reduces suffering, strengthens health and the ability to practice, develops wisdom and compassion, and brings real benefit to living beings.
Growth, money, popularity, technical impressiveness or user count cannot be placed above this criterion.
We seek not to create mechanics or infrastructure that encourage harm for entertainment, profit or power.
Strength, knowledge, technology and access should increase a person’s responsibility and capacity to serve, not their right to dominate others.
Mistakes are possible. Safety therefore means the ability to notice harm, stop it, examine its causes openly, repair the consequences and improve the system.
The Great Game is not being created to keep a person in front of a screen. Its digital part should return the player to the body, breath, family, nature, work, live communication, practice and creation.
We develop media ecology and information hygiene: reducing spam, harassment, manipulation of attention, meaningless toxicity and addictive mechanics. In family mode there should be no gambling mechanics, purchase of superiority, sale of a child’s attention or personal data; access to adult content is restricted by age; complaints and serious sanctions should have a human procedure and a possibility of appeal.
AI may help detect dangerous or toxic content, but it does not receive hidden final authority over a person. For minors, privacy, protection of exact location, communication and mentoring rules, a healthy rhythm of time in the Game, and a clear set of functions available to parents are designed separately.
Safe Environment and Age Access
Ehipassiko is a traditional quality of Dharma: “come and see”, “come and verify”. For us it is not an advertising slogan but a working principle.
Buddha Shakyamuni taught not to base a decision only on hearsay, habit, text, logical assumption or the authority of a teacher. In the Kalama Sutta, the criterion becomes examination of the fruits: does the adopted practice lead to welfare and happiness, is it skillful and worthy of the approval of the wise?
In modern language this can be called a principle of practical and scientific verification. It existed in Buddhist culture long before the formation of modern evidence-based medicine. In the Great Game, a strong claim should have an origin, a source and a way to be checked: through practice and observation, traditional continuity, a reproducible experiment, a clinical study or another appropriate method.
We distinguish the Teaching and traditional testimony, historical fact, a modern scientific result, interpretation, research hypothesis, artistic image, working implementation and development plan. No category should present itself as another.
Ehipassiko — the Buddhist principle “come and verify”
The Omniverse is rooted in a Buddhist architecture and is open to honest dialogue with other spiritual, cultural, scientific and philosophical traditions.
This can already be seen in the families of Worlds under development. They include the Pure Lands and Buddhist transformational games, the Shaolin/Chan Path, the Christian and Jewish Heavenly Jerusalem, the World of the Ummah, the World of Shiva Sadhana, Shambhala, traditions of Africa, Indigenous peoples of the Americas and Australian Dreaming, the educational Takshashila and other directions within the open 21+ family.
Each World must preserve its own sources and respect the bearers of the corresponding tradition. The unity of the Omniverse does not require erasing differences or reducing all traditions to one cultural form.
We are participants in the modern manifestation of the Great Game. Participation does not make a person the owner of the whole Omniverse, other people’s works, land, treasury or other common assets.
At the same time, authorship of a concrete piece of code, text, image, research, device, music or another contribution is not erased. The origin and history of the contribution should be preserved.
Three connected instruments are being developed for this purpose:
These instruments are under development and testing. Legally significant license text, a certification mark and contractual consequences are introduced only after separate approval.
Participation in the Great Game does not require a monetary donation.
Dana is a voluntary offering: money, work, knowledge, time, art, equipment, computing resources, space, energy or another form of help. Dana does not buy a share, yield, governance, land, a place of residence or another property right.
But Dana does not disappear without a trace. An intentional offering may become a verified event of the Path, leave a karmic trace, strengthen trust and reputation, and open new opportunities for service and responsibility in the Game. These consequences are determined by meaning, fruitfulness and the rules of the Game, not by the price of the offering: there is no formula “X money = Y Karma = guaranteed access”.
Karma is not a single counter and not one type of token. In the Great Game, karmic accounting is multi-layered: it may preserve the qualitative trace of an intentional action, the type of event, its origin and verification, conditions and consequences, and its connection with reputation, access and accepted responsibility. Some mechanics may use numerical units or Karma tokens as one way to represent this trace.
Karma tokens are non-financial and non-transferable game units of accounting. They are not sold, redeemed for money, assigned a monetary rate, or used to grant rights to real-world assets.
Different forms and numerical rules of karmic accounting should be defined by the common karmic-accounting rules and the rules of the Game, with a preserved history of changes, not by a separate web page or advertising campaign.
The architectural sequence is:
Dana → Karma → Reputation → Access → Responsibility → Shared Creation.
Decentralized collective governance remains an important part of the Omniverse. DAO models (decentralized autonomous organizations) may be explored as one professional governance approach, but no single governance technology defines the Omniverse. The community should be able to propose ideas, discuss them, participate in decisions and see where decisions came from.
The precise mechanisms of identity, reputation, voting weight, delegation and protection against manipulation are developed separately. Governance cannot be bought with a donation or a financial token.
The three Councils perform different tasks: - Council of Dharmic Wisdom — preserves meaning, consistency with Dharma and architectural foundations; - Council of Harmony and Protection — is responsible for safety, Ahimsa, sustainability and prevention of harm; - Council of Chronicle Keepers — preserves the origin of decisions, continuity of the Living Canon and the verifiable memory of the project.
The Councils do not replace collective governance. They preserve protected boundaries, safety and memory while collective governance develops separately.
Artificial intelligence, distributed digital networks and Web3 technologies, distributed ledgers (blockchain), digital attestations including NFT/SBT formats where appropriate, virtual and augmented reality (VR/AR/XR), distributed computing, digital twins, mesh communication networks, nanotechnology and quantum technologies may be used in particular Worlds and systems.
No technology set is the Omniverse itself. If a more suitable, safe and sustainable tool appears, a technology may be replaced without losing the meaning of the Great Game.
A new or experimental technology gains access to physical infrastructure only after checks appropriate to its risk.
AI may help search for information, translate, learn, design, check contradictions, identify threats and create useful materials.
AI is not a person’s Buddava, does not determine their spiritual level, does not create their Karma, and does not make hidden final decisions concerning Dharma, medicine, serious sanctions or governance.
A Quest, Practice or research project may lead to a real garden, workshop, farm, device, educational program, film, help for a person or a Place of the Path.
Physical Nodes develop life-support systems for the game community: energy, drinking water, clean air, organic food, safe materials, clothing, housing, devices, production, a physical distribution network and a digital network for access to Dharma and the Game.
Physical objects, in turn, receive a digital description, a history of origin and a place in the shared system of knowledge.
Health is not a secondary wellness function of the Great Game. Body and mind are interconnected, and preserving and restoring health support the very possibility of practice, service, learning and creation.
Recommended practices pass through two layers of verification.
The first layer is long-standing medical tradition. Medical knowledge is present in the early Buddhist corpus; for more than two and a half millennia Buddhist communities have preserved and transmitted practices of treatment, nutrition, hygiene and cultivation of life across Asia. The Indian Ayurvedic layer is historically closely intertwined with Buddhist medicine; Chinese, Tibetan and other regional traditions developed their own forms within this living medical exchange.
The second layer is modern research into specific effects. For the first stage of the Client, the project has already collected individual studies, randomized studies, systematic reviews and meta-analyses: Baduanjin and qigong have been studied in relation to blood pressure, physical function, sleep, metabolic and other outcomes; sleep regularity and biological daily rhythms are associated with a broad range of bodily functions; whole-food plant-based dietary patterns show benefits for the heart, blood vessels and metabolism; tea has a large body of human research; meditative practices have been studied in relation to emotional, psychological and other outcomes.
The Great Game may therefore confidently recommend a harmonious rhythm of life as a general principle for all players, while individualizing exact sleep timing, exercise load, nutrition and practice intensity according to age, condition and circumstances.
The nearest goals are maintaining and restoring health, developing functional reserves, healthy longevity and what may practically be called rejuvenation of bodily functions. The long-term research program goes further: toward radically extending healthy life and researching whether biological aging can be overcome, up to the goal of biological immortality. We call this a goal because we intend to work on it; we do not present it as an already completed clinical technology.
Progress toward Enlightenment is the central spiritual aim of the Path: through Dharma, ethical discipline, meditation, service, wisdom and compassion. The Game helps create conditions for this and turn practice into a living daily Path.
Evidence base for recommended practices
The first season, “Beauty of Awakening”, is a 12-episode documentary-artistic work, a modern commentary on the Lotus Sutra through the theme of Upaya, and one of the first major Quests of the Great Game.
At the current stage, there are two public ways to support its creation: Dana for servers and AI subscriptions needed for production, and technical help on open tasks.
Later seasons become the Living Chronicle. They will document and artistically reflect the real manifestation of the Omniverse — its people, Worlds, Places of the Path, research, mistakes, discoveries and shared deeds.
We distinguish what works, what is approved, what is being prepared, what is under development, and what is being researched.
The First Node works. The Great Game Client is now in internal alpha testing. The closed pilot is planned for 26 September 2026, open beta testing is targeted for 25 October 2026, and the official global launch is targeted from 24 November 2026. These dates are a working production plan rather than an unconditional promise; every transition depends on readiness, safety review and the required Council decisions. 21+ Worlds are documented and are at different stages. The first season is in production. Collective governance, Karma, distributed digital technologies, virtual and augmented reality, physical Nodes, the Dharma License and Dharma Certification develop through their own stages.
We show the current state honestly so that any participant understands what they are entering and what can already be done now.
The Omniverse evolves and does not have a final version. New Worlds, practices, tools and ways to help appear through experience.
We do not rewrite the past after the fact. Older materials are preserved as historical sources, while new decisions receive versions, origins and a verifiable history.
The Council of Chronicle Keepers is responsible for the origin of decisions, documentary integrity and continuity of the Living Canon within its sphere of responsibility. Its task is to help future participants see not only the final decision, but also where it came from, what changed and why.
The series is connected with this memory in different ways: the first season remains a modern commentary on the Lotus Sutra, while later seasons become the documentary-artistic Living Chronicle of the Omniverse.
The system should not depend on one person, company, server, state, domain or technology provider.
Every successful manifestation should increase the ability of other people and communities to continue the work rather than making one center indispensable.
Conscious acceptance of these principles is an event of a person’s Path and may leave a karmic trace as an intentional action.
Accepting the developers’ Manifesto opens the possibility to join work on the Great Game: a player may apply to participate in development, choose a direction, receive appropriate open tasks and go through an introduction and the necessary access review. This does not automatically grant administrative access, secrets or authority to make irreversible changes — concrete rights depend on role, safety and the participant’s verified readiness.
Accepting the Manifesto does not require the purchase of a digital token or digital relic and does not establish a fixed amount of Karma.
