== Overview ==
The '''SpiritWiki''' is an intentional and ethically structured knowledge repository. It integrates validated concepts from [[Human Development]], [[Psychology]], [[Sociology]], [[Education]], and [[Authentic Spirituality]] into a clear, logical, and empirically grounded framework.  Its primary function is to eliminate [[Nomenclature Confusion]], ideological distortion, and elite manipulation within spiritual and human development knowledge systems.

Unlike conventional academic or spiritual encyclopedias, which are often fragmented, obscured, or elitist, the SpiritWiki is:

* **Structured** — Every entry follows a standardized, semantically interlinked format.
* **Transparent and Research-Based** — All entries are empirically grounded, decolonized, and ethically constructed.
* **Accessible and Open-Access** — Knowledge is freely available and designed for collective human and planetary benefit.
* **Integrated within the Avatar SPKS** — Serving as the knowledge core of a broader, planetary-scale emancipatory knowledge system.

==Structure==
Each SpiritWiki entry is structured into mandatory and optional sections to ensure clarity, coherence, and conceptual integrity.

=== Mandatory Sections ===

* '''Definition''' — The canonical definition of a term.
* '''Concept Map''' — Organized lists of related, syncretic, and associated terms using Semantic MediaWiki queries.

  * '''Key Terms''' — Fundamental terms required to understand the concept.
  * '''Syncretic Terms''' — Terms with closely aligned meanings or interchangeable usage.
  * '''Related LP Terms''' — LP terms necessary for deeper understanding.
  * '''Non-LP Related Terms''' — Relevant terms from outside the LP system.

=== Optional Sections ===

* '''Overview''' — High-level description and significance of the concept.
* '''Core Elements''' — Structural components of the concept.
* '''Core Principles''' — Ethical or structural principles underlying the concept.
* '''Examples''' — Practical examples or applications.
* '''Why This Matters''' — Explanation of planetary or developmental relevance.
* '''Strategic Significance''' — Role in advancing planetary healing and conscious evolution.
* '''Extended Exploration''' — Links to related articles, analysis, or expanded discussions.
* '''Notes''' — Commentary, research links, and developmental observations.
* '''Quotes''' — Direct quotations clarifying or contextualizing the concept.
* '''Footnotes and References''' — Supporting citations and academic grounding.

== Notes ==

* The SpiritWiki is an example of a [[Memex]] — a local, topic-focused [[Semantic Web]] designed to support human development and planetary healing.
* It explicitly counters the fragmentation and ideological distortion found in mainstream academic and spiritual knowledge systems.
* The SpiritWiki operationalizes the principles of the [[Pathfinder Educational Model]] (PEM) and the [[Avatar Symbiotic Planetary Knowledge System]].

== The SpiritWiki & The Pathfinder Educational Model (PEM) ==
The SpiritWiki is a foundational component of the PEM, serving as:

* A **Structured, Logical, and Empirical Resource** — Ensuring that Pathfinder learning materials are clear, interconnected, and continuously refined.
* A **Knowledge Base for Critical Thinking and Consciousness Expansion** — Helping learners break free from ideological conditioning and develop critical consciousness.
* A **Support Tool for Healing-Centered Pedagogy** — Providing scientifically and spiritually informed pathways to healing, empowerment, and full self-actualization.

==Technical==
The SpiritWiki is built using:

* **MediaWiki software** — The same software underlying Wikipedia.
* **Semantic MediaWiki extension** — Enabling dynamic semantic linking and structured querying of all terms and concepts.
* **Open-Access Licensing** — Encouraging ethical sharing, citation, and non-proprietary use of the knowledge.
