Review your rite, then keep it on your device.
◆This stays with you. Every rite — spoken, written, or filmed — is kept on this device, in your hands. Nothing leaves it until you choose to seal a rite, and even then only that one rite is preserved in the archive, owned by you. We cannot see, sell, or surveil what you keep.
Your thread
Every rite is kept free on this device. When one must outlive it, seal it in your thread below — a dollar of permanence from your purse.
Sealing preserves a rite beyond this device and records its public proof — it spends one Seal (a dollar) from your purse, the same purse the Journal keeps. One Seal keeps up to 25 MB; a larger moment spends one Seal for each 25 MB it needs. Open a purse of Seals if you don't hold one. Select sealed rites to bind them into a Muhuri — one heirloom. Full endowment (redundant, independent keeping) comes next; until then we never say "forever."
No rites yet. The first is always the hardest to begin and the easiest to treasure.
Your Mihuri
A Muhuri wa Milele gathers your linked, sealed rites into one heirloom. Stage 1: the collection is preserved with its own public proof; redundancy and an independent anchor come next.
Your rite, your way
No streaks to lose, no guilt to carry. Miss a day and the thread simply waits.
Only a count of your kept days and sealed rites — and a name you choose — is shared. Your rites themselves are never shared. You may add a note about how it feels, if you wish. You can stop and be removed at any time.
Every life remembered, every lineage honored — from the cradle of humanity to all its children.
