One World Family¶
Communism is the most ideal social state that humanity longs for, and its main feature is "no worthy person left in the wilds, all under heaven one family." Since all under heaven is one family, that means there are no nations, no marriage and family, no private property, and all resources are shared.

One World Family (Tianxia Yijia, 天下一家, "all under heaven, one family") is the defining mark of the Lifechanyuan Era that Guide Xuefeng is opening for humanity. The phrase comes from the thirteenth lesson of Zhuge Liang's prophecy Ma Qian Ke — "no worthy person left in the wilds, all under heaven one family" — and is usually paired with "nothing dropped on the road is taken, no door is locked at night." If all under heaven is one family, there are no nations, political parties, religions, or marriage and family, and no private property; all resources are shared, and everyone is a citizen of Earth, free to move anywhere in the world.
Its condition is "no worthy person left in the wilds": the worthy are not buried, and each place is managed by the most civilized and excellent people found among all humanity. Its model is the Second Home: move to a new home every three years, and one day, with 256 homes that are the same wherever you go, "you will experience the feeling of 'all under heaven one family.'" Its era is Civilization 3.0. The Guide says this cannot be achieved by people, but the Dao can achieve it; the Chanyuan Celestials need only rise to become celestials.
