Core Human Values

Ancient wisdom embodied within our physical form

FREEDOM & AGENCY

Hands

Freedom & Agency

Our hands manifest choice and action, allowing us to create, build, express, and shape the world around us according to our will.

TRUTH & AUTHENTICITY

Eyes

Truth & Authenticity

Our eyes perceive reality directly, seek truth through observation, and reveal our authentic emotions as windows to the soul.

COURAGE

Heart

Courage

Our heart physically responds to challenges, pumping harder when facing fear, and has been the symbolic seat of courage throughout human history.

PATIENCE & DISCERNMENT

Brain

Patience & Discernment

Our brain governs our ability to delay gratification, resist impulses, make measured decisions, and carefully discern between complex choices.

The Integrated Human

Just as these four values are essential to a meaningful human life, each is embodied in a different part of our physical form. Together, they create a complete and integrated human being.

  • Hands: Express our freedom and agency in the world
  • Eyes: Perceive truth and reveal our authentic self
  • Heart: Embodies courage and resilience in the face of challenges
  • Brain: Enables patience and discernment through thoughtful consideration
