Example student: A student discusses with his roommate who will clean the house. The tasks are unevenly divided, so he looks for a leuK solution.
Example designer: A designer discusses an assignment for an inexpensive piece of furniture with her manager. The request conflicts with her sustainable beliefs, since she strives for responsible design. She is looking for a leuK solution.
Example soccer club: The board of the soccer club discusses whether to renovate the clubhouse. Opinions differ: some want to save money, others want to invest in sustainability. The board is looking for a leuK solution.
Step 1
Answered everything with “yes”?
Example student: The roommate bases his choice on last week’s cleaning list and notices that the kitchen is still undone. He checks the schedule and coordinates with his roommate. His words are clear: whoever cooks on Tuesday cleans on Wednesday. Everything aligns with the agreed structure.
Example designer: The designer first examines costs, materials, and environmental requirements. She compares data on reused resources and production impact. Her arguments are factual and traceable. She communicates clearly with the team: a design can be both affordable and sustainable when choices are made logically and with solid reasoning.
Example soccer club: The board first reviews proposals, maintenance reports, and visitor numbers. It compares the renovation costs with current maintenance expenses. The data show that investing now prevents future loss. The board communicates clearly: every step is based on facts and a well-founded analysis.
Step 2
Answered everything with “yes”?
Example student: The roommate acknowledges that he forgot his task last week. He takes responsibility, offers to vacuum today, and suggests making a new schedule together. He stays honest, says what he thinks, and ensures both roommates contribute equally to a clean and pleasant home.
Example designer: The designer acknowledges her responsibility: affordability is no reason to cause harm. She stays honest about the effects of cheap materials. She proposes to accept limited profit in exchange for more balance between price and sustainability, so her actions remain fair to everyone.
Example soccer club: The board takes responsibility for the club and its members. It openly discusses how costs affect membership fees and volunteers. The decision is aimed at fairness: a safe, accessible, and balanced clubhouse where everyone feels welcome and can enjoy time together.
Step 3
Answered everything with “yes”?
Example student: The roommate realizes that his approach applies not only to the kitchen but to every shared space. He acts in a way that works everywhere. He makes sure this is now the new way of doing things, also for the future.
Example designer: The designer chooses materials that can be used everywhere—today, tomorrow, and in future projects. Her design focuses on long-term use and reusable parts. She ensures that her actions work not only for this project but also serve as an example for sustainable production and conscious consumption worldwide.
Example soccer club: The board thinks beyond today. It explores sustainable materials, energy-efficient systems, and reusable furnishings. It shares experiences with nearby football clubs so they can learn and make similar choices. In this way, conscious action grows into a shared practice that can be applied everywhere.

You’re acting leuK!
Example student: The roommate applies The Golden Rule by acting as he wishes to be treated himself. He cleans without complaint, knowing his roommate will do the same. His choice strengthens mutual understanding, balance, and shared support, and he walks the Karmic Path of The Golden Rule.
Example designer: The designer applies The Golden Rule: she treats nature and people the way she wants to be treated. She deliberately seeks balance between profit and purpose. Her actions strengthen understanding and teamwork and lead her team toward a design that is both sustainable and achievable. She walks the Kingly Way of The Law.
Example soccer club: The board applies The Golden Rule by acting in the interest of members, volunteers, and the community. It chooses a solution that adds value for everyone. In doing so, the board strengthens the connection within the club and follows the Kingly Way of The Law in practice.
Talk about it with others. Share it with #leuK. Do it again, in a different situation. leuK will naturally become a habit — and even part of your character.
Free will means you can make your own choices without being forced by others. That requires thinking consciously about your own values, what you need and what is possible for you. You are responsible for what you do and for the consequences that follow. Free will is the foundation for all the other rules, because it gives you the ability to choose consciously, think independently, act, grow and persevere.
You have freedom of choice when you can select from several options. Each choice must be logical, ethical and universal. If it is not, you have the option to say no and not go through with it.
Thinking independently means you do not simply do what others say but think critically. Acting independently means you actually do what is leuK, even if others disagree.
It is important to make decisions on factual information—not on what you assume to be true, a personal preference or an emotion. This means you check whether something is correct so you can better predict the consequences of your choice.
If you want to grow and improve something, always trade an idea for a better idea. Science works that way too. A theory is formed on the basis of what we know at that moment. If the opposite is proven, the theory is rejected or changed.
It is always good to listen to and give constructive criticism — criticism intended to improve something. Be open to it.
Determination means you keep going even when things get tough. You may encounter challenges, failures or opposition. Yet you persist and keep working toward your goals. You push through and do not give up. You are, however, flexible and adjust your plans when the situation requires it.
