The Principles
Definition: The Principles are the seven foundational tenets that serve as the guiding philosophy for the Stellarium Foundation. They are the core beliefs that inform every strategy, project, and action. They represent the "why" behind the mission.
As detailed in the book, The Principles are:
∆ Each individual possesses the innate ability to thrive on their own interests and pursuits.
This affirms the sovereignty and potential of the individual as the primary unit of creation and prosperity.
∆ Wealth is above all the biggest and most important metric, therefore generate wealth.
This establishes wealth creation not as a byproduct, but as the central, measurable goal of all endeavors, as it is the most effective tool for solving problems and uplifting humanity.
∆ The duty of every one is to be a peacemaker, peace and wealth walk in one accord.
This links economic prosperity directly to social harmony, positing that one cannot exist sustainably without the other.
∆ War is anti wealth, conflict is anti peace.
The inverse of the previous principle, stating that conflict and destruction are the greatest impediments to prosperity.
∆ Improving and serving people creates wealth.
This defines the mechanism of legitimate wealth creation: value is derived from service to others.
∆ Human creativity and ingenuity drives innovation.
This identifies human potential as the ultimate resource for progress and the engine of economic growth.
∆ The law is: Make money, have fun, do good.
This final principle is so central that it is elevated to its own status as "The Law."
