Principles
Principle of the Process
One of the fundamental principles of our alliance is to look at everything as a learning process. Everything learns, it is prominently stated second in our manifesto. This view allows us, above all, to recognize beauty in the equality and variety of movements.
What is often described as an error, is also a stimulus for improvement. Writing this book leads us to growth within our alliance, thus generating a new external impact. Our surroundings perceive this new impact and grow with us.
Principle of Purity
One goal of our protocol is to improve the basic principles of collaboration. This is a tremendous venture and it's self-evidently difficult to achieve. On the journey towards this goal, we will constantly find circumvention solutions that appear easier at first glance. However, the principle of purity encourages us to forego quick-fix mentalities and shirking in order not to dilute our endeavor. This principle obviously incurs significant costs, of which we are fully aware. Nevertheless, it encourages us to accept these costs and generally act more meticulously than would be customary in traditional culture. We aim to surmount significant characteristics of our species, not hastily cobble something together, which will collapse around our sensitive earsat the next curve.
Our principle of purity teaches us that doubts usually mean "no" at first and that doubts usually mean to pause for a moment to observe more closely where difficulties lie. Query, examine, comprehend, and only then, improve.
In short, this principle encourages us to constantly focus on the essence of our manifesto and, if you like, to become intolerant as soon as murky water threatens to pollute our gears.
Principle of Resistance
At first, it's easier to swim with the flow. It's harder to stand in the river. Our principle of resistance encourages you to continuously search out the greatest resistance and swim against the current!
Precisely at this resistance, you will grow and the best ideas will help you overcome it. This principle promises you freedom. Once you achieve the impossible, you will be generously rewarded with newfound freedom.
Here, the outlined network structure of the principles becomes apparent. As soon as you choose the resistance you want to overcome according to the principle of purity, you will automatically be protected from only wanting to overcome the small molehills of life and smilingly proceeding towards the highest peak you can see.
Principle of Scarcity
This principle arises from a deep understanding of creation, which in turn arises from the practice of questioning and improving. Another root of the principle of scarcity is the imperative of thinking in generations.
Our personal resources are always finite and therefore always scarce. We use this scarcity to fuel our creativity. The virtue of thrift in dealing with all our resources also derives from this principle. Consider an activity that one can finish in an hour, a day or even a week. Often, an artificial reduction of available time can lead to small and big wonders.
Principle of the Alliance
"The strong are at their most powerful alone!" teaches us Wilhelm Tell in the Sturm und Drang drama by Friedrich Schiller. This is precisely our alliance. We are strong together, and thus most powerful alone.
Members of our alliance are free, brave, and strong spirits who aspire to surpass themselves. Therefore, we invite interested individuals to join us as guests for a sufficiently long period before proposing, upon careful consideration, a candidacy.
To make this clear: All those who still bow daily to one of the many idols of modernity, and those who kowtow to the idols of postmodernity without laughing out loud, we kindly ask to perhaps listen a bit more deeply and sensitively within. Often, the subtle nuances are missed in the noise of everyday life.
In summary: Our alliance draws a clear line. Within this boundary, we maintain a loose federation and each is strong on their own. Outside this boundary, we act collectively and powerfully.
In other words: We do not align with the inflated notion of friendship as defined by contemporary social media. In our ranks, we maintain a clear hierarchy, which is crucial to the structure of our alliance.
