{{The Mission Statement}}
 
There are many online resources about Enlightenment, but a niche that doesn't have a lot of presence online are resources that
* Can be used by anyone, anytime, anywhere
* Are primarily self-directed
* Emphasize informal, rather than formal practices
* Emphasize short, repetitive, limited exercises that form a tapestry of practice
 
== Guiding Principles ==
* Everything should support The Mission
* Do not reinvent the wheel - there are a lot of resources out there that provide so much information already
* Do not invent any new terms, or rely on terms that have too much baggage or have different interpretations.
* When in doubt don't add complexity to something that is good enough
* Always give credit to other websites
* Do not make or endorse claims that cannot be substantiated, such as supernatural claims
* Continual improvement to the exercises and explanations - and if something is broken, then fix it, no matter how big
* Anyone can use these exercises, regardless of their own path
* Exercises should be useful and accessible to a range of learners, including beginners and masters
