The context of a Gameworld is the gameworld's relationship to consciousness and responsibility. Context defines what the Gameworld holds as its highest values.

For example, modern culture values profit and teaches that the most successful people are those who avoid responsibility.

In modern culture, the term 'consciousness' has no meaning. 'Consciousness' is one of those stupid or dirty words.

Even though the Gameworlds of modern culture are contexted in capitalist patriarchal empire it is possible to create Gameworlds with an entirely different context, set of values, distinctions, rules of engagement, and purpose.

You now have a team of people who have come together in a new context - the context of Archiarchy - and who can build and inhabit Gaian Gameworlds.

Nobody already knows how the Gameworld of building Gameworlds goes.

Even less-so, the Gameworld of building Gameworld Builders...

To set a new Gameworld’s Context, start by claiming the Gameworld's True Purpose, which will be to serve the Gameworld's Bright Principles.

Setting the True Purpose must, of necessity, include identifying your Gameworld's Hidden Purpose.

Unconsciously created Gameworlds deliver Child Level Responsibility and largely serve Hidden or Unconscious Purposes, such as Competition, Win-Lose games, Low Drama, avoiding responsibility, and providing Gremlin food to those people high-up in the Gameworld hierarchies.

To consciously set a new Gameworld’s Context, the Spaceholders relocate their Point Of Origin into the chosen Context.

In every meeting space, begin by calling your Gameworld's Bright Principles into the space. Establishing each Workspace as a Space through which these Bright Principles can do their work in the world.

It will be crucial for participants to continually improve their skills at staying Centered, making their Grounding Cord and Personal Bubble of Space, holding their Gremlin on a short leash, and lowering their Numbness Bar to gain access to the energy and information of low-level Feelings and Emotions.

Suddenly it will become clear that: Something completely different from this is possible right now.

It is possible to change an already existing Gameworld’s Context from, say, Child Level Responsibility to Adult Level Responsibility, or from Adult Level Responsibility to Radical Responsibility.

The risk of trying to upgrade an already existing Gameworld's Context is that, if a majority of the members succeed in choosing the new Context, you will lose participants who are not interested and willing to endure the transformational Liquid States of shifting out of their old Context into the new Context.

Keep in mind that by upgrading a Gameworld’s Context you open a Doorway for new members to join who are longing to be nurtured by a higher level of responsibility and consciousness than was being offered by the old Gameworld.

Nonetheless, it may be less painful and more successful to build new Gameworlds that make the existing Gameworlds irrelevant than to try to change the Context of an existing Gameworld.

Built-in to every Gameworld are the Gameworld's values.

Values are what has worth.

Before a value can be valued you need to be aware of it.

Most Gameworld creators are not aware of the values hidden in the Gameworld they are building.

It does not have to be that way.

It turns out that the most subtle things we are not aware of are those that most control us... like status, like ownership, like values.

Even if the values are not specified or consciously held by Gameworld participants, the values are reflected in Gameworld behaviors:

• Where does the food come from? Who grew it? Who cooks it? Who cleans up? What is composted?
• What sort of soap is used? Who made it?
• Do you use a hierarchical or circular power structure?
• Which of the 13 Standard Decision-making Procedures is used?
• Where do the clothes come from? What are they made of? Who made them?
• Where are the children? How are they prepared for their authentic adulthood initiatory processes?
• What belief systems are subscribed to? Why?
• What drugs are used? Alcohol? Tobacco? Coffee? Chocolate? Sugar? Marijuana? Ayauasca?
• What is included? What is excluded?
• How is status dealt with?
• How is skin color and religion and beliefs and racism and expectations dealt with?
• How are laws in other gameworlds dealt with?
• How is the the concept of privilege dealt with?
• How are initiations dealt with?
• What sort of economy is used?
• What sort of infrastructure is used?
• What sort of transportation is used?
• What sorts of entertainment are used?
• What sort of spaceholding is used?
• Who owns what? And why? And what happens to the owners?
• How are men regarded? Women? Children? Animals? Plants?
• Who tends to Gaia?
• What happens when someone is sick? When someone dies? When someone is in a liquid state?
• Who benefits? Who pays?
• Who decides who gets to participate? Who decides who must leave? How? Why?
• Etc.

"As urgency around climate change and polarization increases on the planet, violence and removal of long-fought-for rights are both increasing. Human migration and immigration are going to be unavoidable and this may very well increase incidences of racism and xenophobia – as we are already seeing. In this context, systemic change becomes more and more urgent. And…there is a trap here.

"Paulo Freire writes quite eloquently in Pedagogy of the Oppressed about how communities sometimes rise up and fight revolutions, and sometimes they win – often to become the very oppressors they were fighting against.

"We see this happen again and again throughout history. Why? I believe that nature gives us a reason: We ‘trick’ ourselves into believing that the ‘issue’ is the structures themselves when, in nature, patterns of behaviour create structure – not the other way around.

"If we accept and understand this, then it becomes clear that if we work to change the structures, but neglect the patterns of human behavior that both create and sustain the structures, we are doomed to recreate and/or re-inhabit the same structures all over again. Focusing solely on structural change while neglecting behavioral change becomes self-defeating."

- David Diamond, Theatre For Living

Every brand or logo you recognize is the name of a gameworld you play in.

Simply by knowing a gameworld's name, you ARE participating in it. Profit-oriented gameworlds invest billions to occupy a part of your mind with their brand name and logo so as to establish brand-loyalty in your emotional body.

You support the values of the gameworlds you play in.

Do you know the values of the gameworlds you play in?

If not, you may be a 'Zombie'.

A 'Zombie' is 'anyone who is not aware of the values of the gameworlds they play in'.

Since Zombies serve Gameworlds which do not nourish the delicate and complex interdepending ecologies of Gaia, Zombies are serving death.

This is how serious knowing about Gameworlds can be.

Maybe it's time you learn about Gameworlds...?

What purpose creates the food your Being longs for?

Some Beings long for making change.

There are some distinctions about what kind of change you want to make with your gameworld.

You can change the way people get the things they want.

Or you can change what they want.

Jeff Bezos and Bill Gates are two of the wealthiest people in history. They got that way by changing how people used tools to find new ways to get what they already wanted.

Nelson Mandela and Jacqueline Novogratz picked a different mission. Trying to change what people want in the first place.

Both paths are available, but they’re different.

Your Codex is a written artifact that sends out a resonance field about your gameworld. This is a weird thing to say, yet, check it out experimentally. If you do not write a Codex, or if your Codex is outdated and does not match the true current intentions and procedures of your gameworld, is it any wonder that your gameworld is a mess?

Your Codex is like a list that you might send to Santa Claus telling him everything you want for Christmas. Writing your 'Santa Wish List' does not guarantee that these are the things you will receive for presents. But writing no wish list guarantees that the ugly socks and ties you receive are your fault.

Your Codex is a formula for building out the gameworld you want. It is where you start, where you experiments begin, and how you keep track of whether or not what you try works and to what degree. Then you revise your Codex.

Some Teams keep each iteration of their Codex as a way to document the evolution of their gameworld. Some Teams delete previous editions of their Codex and start over new each time.

Your Codex needs to be visible to the general public at the border between your gameworld and other gameworlds so that potential participants or collaborators or customers can see what your gameworld is about to help them decide if they want to interact with your gameworld or not.

At the same time, the Codex is not your gameworld.

Your Codex should not be placed at the center of your gameworld because the Codex does not make the gameworld. What you love and what you want to do is what makes the gameworld. The Codex is the documented structure for what you want to do and how you want to do it. That is all. It is a map.

If you keep the map at the center of your gameworld then the map functions like a prison to keep the gameworld from evolving. If your gameworld is not evolving then your gameworld is dead.

If you keep the map of your gameworld at the semi-permeable membrane of the gameworld (the interface between your gameworld and all other gameworlds) then you always know where to find the map to refer to it or update it, and so does everyone else, and yet, everyone is free of the prison. The prison sits quietly over there, on the shelf, exactly where it should be.

The idea that following the rules of your Codex will make your gameworld work turns your gameworld into a corporate or military or religious hierarchy with the Codex at the top. ANY hierarchy can be hijacked by psychopaths, sex-slave traffickers, and pedophiles.

Stay awake. Use toroidal and circular gameworld designs.

Put your Codex at the edge of your gameworld and you stand naked in the gameworld's center, with your heart turned on through Dragon Speaking, using your Real Voice. This way your gameworld is the vehicle through which you can take a stand for the stand that you have taken for being born on Earth.

Build the gameworlds you need to do what you came here to do. You and your Team stand in the middle together and invent your next moves, even if they have never been done before, even if you don't know how, even if they are claimed to be illegal. Move into new territory. Do what needs to be done.

The Rule of Law of modern civilization is exterminating life on planet Earth at the fastest possible rate. Anyone who follows that Rule of Law is criminally insane. Anyone who defends that Rule of Law has already forfeited their life.

Walk down the street in this clarity. Even the United Nations has been hijacked. Even the church has been hijacked. Most the NGOs have been hijacked. Gaia needs you as an Edgeworker, a Riftwalker, a Trainer, a Possibilitator, a Feelings Practitioner... to invent the new territory of your gameworld and move into it. Will you do that?

For a Codex to be useful it should include several core components. These you could even consider to be the Table Of Contents of your Codex:

1. Rules of Engagement inside the gameworld:
   1. Context of your gameworld, e.g. the relationship between your gameworld and responsibility / consciousness (please see the Thoughtmap of Culture and Responsibility. 'Responsibility' here is defined as 'applied consciousness', in other words, 'responsibility is consciousness in action'.
   2. Bright Principles of your gameworld. First Distill the Bright Principles of each of the members of your Team. Then you will be able to distill the Bright Principles of your gameworld.
   3. Conscious Purpose of your gameworld (possibly a place for your Vision and Mission).
   4. Shadow Principles / Unconscious Purpose of your gameworld (a place for the Hidden Purpose of each person in your Team).
   5. Style of your gameworld, e.g. is your gameworld land-based or nomadic? Is your gameworld a nanonation? Or do you submit to external authority, to what degree, and regarding what?
   6. Energetic Diagram of your gameworld's Circles and their relationships. See Sociocracy 3.0 for some hints about arranging your Circles. Who is in which Circle, their contact information.  Who is the Spaceholder of each Circle? How do Circle meetings go?
   7. Meta Circle of your gameworld. For the moment your gameworld's Founder Team functions as the Meta Circle or 'Sweeper Ring' of your gameworld, making sure that the gameworld itself is fed and nurtured in balance. As your gameworld evolves into more complexity, as your Founder Team steps down and joins your gameworld to avoid Founder's Syndrome, you will need to create a Meta Circle to replace the Founder Team's functionality. 
   8. Decision making procedures of your gameworld. To define your Decision Making process it can help to know the 13 Standard Decision Making Technologies. 
   9. Who owns what in your gameworld, e.g. It could be that the gameworld itself is the owner of properties, and that the Creative Commons is the owner of anything invented or created by your gameworld. Then things would be copyleft, open code thoughtware, feeding the Creative Commons.
2. Rules of Engagement Between Our Gameworld and Other Gameworlds:
   1. How does someone enter our gameworld?
   2. How does someone exit our gameworld?
   3. How do visitors or volunteers interact with our gameworld?
   4. What are the currencies of our gameworld? Thoughtware upgrades? Healing or initiatory processes?
   5. How do our currencies exchange with the  currencies of other gameworlds or not?
3. Customs of your gameworld:
   1. What do we wear, shoes, hats, coats, for work? For formal occasions? Women? Men? Initiated or not initiated? Children?
   2. How do we celebrate birthdays, deathdays, transformation days?
   3. How do we relate to seasons? The moon? Nature Beings? Bright and Shadow Principles?
   4. How do we care for member's health and healing of their 5 Bodies? Who is in the Witch's Circle?
   5. How do we care for our land base and the local ecosystems?
   6. How do we relate to how others care / abuse the local land base and ecosystems?
   7. How do we care for our food? Vegan? Vegetarian? Omnivore? Not specified? Self-sufficient? 
   8. How do we prepare our food? Customs? Traditions? Recipes?
   9. What are the Technopenuriaphobia Healing handicrafts and Low Tech specialties of our gameworld?
   10. How do we build and heat/cool our houses?
   11. What tools do we make and use?
   12. What products and services do we produce and sell?
   13. What are our modes of transportation? Horses? Bicycles? Sailboats?
   14. What are our sources of water?
   15. What are our sources of power, e.g. wood, solar, electricity?
   16. What is  our regenerative plan in relationship to the regenerative plan of the local city council and building code and town hall? What is our emergency plan for fire, tsunami, draught, terrorists, arrival of refugees?
   17. How are our children born and raised? How are they unschooled?
   18. To what degree is the media allowed to contaminate our gameworld context? Our children?
   19. What are our legends and creation mythologies?
   20. How does our gameworld provide authentic adulthood initiatory processes to members? To nonmembers?
   21. How do our 4 Archetypal Lineages meet and organize to empower each other to take care of our gameworld and each other?
   22. Etcetera...

Any gameworld could center around these values:

Our purpose is to globally weave critical connections between communities of practice to create a field of influence for the emergence of next culture, Archiarchy.

IT IS TIME TO SERIOUSLY COLLABORATE

It has never been more important that people in the service of expanding consciousness work together as one team. This means simply ignoring all the typical boundaries that we might imagine separate one lineage or style of consciousness expanding work from another. It does not matter what kind of Buddhist you call yourself. It does not matter what level Aikido practitioner you are. It does not matter what therapeutic tradition you come from. We can no longer afford to bicker over such superficial differences. If you are involved in expanding the Box we are all on one team. We are all serving the same Bright Principles. It is time to seriously collaborate.

Creating a protected knowledge center that can serve as an Ark certainly has value, but the fight has not yet been lost. It is not yet time to go underground and become invisible. Coordinated action is needed to experiment with alternative forms of culture, education, family, energy, government, city design, transportation, spirituality, society, financial exchange, management, entertainment, ritual, technology, meetings, and economic development. (See J. F. Rischard’s brilliant book High Noon: Twenty Global Problems, Twenty Years to Solve Them.) Experimentation depends on you experimenting. It only happens if you lead it to happen.

The more reality that can be brought to implementing alternatives before they are desperately needed the easier the transitions to using them will be. The need for experimenting is now. No, it is not easy to experiment now. Yes, you will be maximally challenged while implementing what you see is possible when others do not yet see similarly. Discovery always brings disorientation. But if you do not try to bring what you know to be possible into existence now, who will? If you have clarity and the ability to take real actions and try things out, it is probably a job on your bench. Change manifests one individual at a time, one day at a time, one small action at a time. Every little effort helps to cut new forms of consciousness that act as seed crystals and establish resonance for others who can tune in and follow. This is not a time for hesitation or hiding out. We have work to do, and this work needs be done together.

(the words in orange italic have been changed from the original post)

High Noon is a cornerstone of American cinema, a sobering and memorable look at heroism and community.

In the movie, the sheriff is facing near-certain death at the hands of a killer freed from prison. He has about an hour to gather a posse of deputies, because together they’ll be able to repel the avenging outlaw when arrives on the noon train.

As the clock ticks down, the marshal visits one part of the community after another, begging them to help him. And each finds a reason to say no, preferring short-term safety to long-term freedom, community belonging and heroism.

Howard Hawks, director of Rio Bravo, pointed out that the reason that the marshal failed to rally the community was that he was asking. In search of affiliation, he shared his fears and a story of mutual support as well as loyalty for what he’d done for them for so long.

In Rio Bravo, on the other hand, John Wayne does nothing of the sort. He regularly turns down offers of help, being selective about who’s worthy of being on his team. He shares no fear or trepidation. He’s selling status and dominance, not affiliation. “Are you good enough to be on this team?”

Humans are motivated by affiliation or by status.

And in the archetypal old west, it was status that often carried the day. The same might be true for the gameworld that you are part of.
