How to Use This Book

The universe is unknowable, so we create illusions of certainty.

We call these illusions ‘foma’ in this book. But even within them, you can still choose. You can still act with awareness.

This is our foma: that agency is still possible - even now. This book is a mirror. Share it. Reflect it. Just don’t turn it into a cage.

There is no license here - only an invitation. You are welcome to quote it, remix it, argue with it, teach from it, or build something better on top of it.

All we ask is that you carry it with care. If you share it, keep its context intact. If you adapt it, keep its spirit alive:

Kindness. Humility. Shared reality. Ethics. Emergence. Irony.

These aren’t restrictions. They’re reminders. This book was never about ownership - it was about agency. Take what helps. Leave what doesn’t. And if you find something new in these pages - pass it on.
