Buddhism and Hindu traditions did not fail to make the cut. They are represented structurally
through convergence principles, even when not always named as standalone node labels.
Two-Layer Model
Layer 1: Lineage anchors are historical lenses (for example Ma'at, Ifa/Yoruba, Rahui).
Layer 2: Convergences are governance functions (truth legibility, traceability, closure, stewardship, plural perspective, mandate renewal).
Convergence nodes describe shared structural patterns, not civilizational ranking.
Buddhist and Hindu Presence
Buddhist bridge: Dependent Origination maps to closed conditions and systemic causality.
Hindu bridge: Dharma and Indra's Net map to role accountability, stewardship, and interconnection.
These are illustrative governance bridges only; no authority claim is made.
Shared Wisdom Frame
Many traditions independently converge on responsible-power patterns.
Our goal is synthesis for modern AI governance, not ownership of source wisdom.
