This paper presents a revised and expanded theoretical framework for Psycho-Cosmocide — a concept developed to describe the systematic destruction of Indigenous cosmologies, consciousness, memory systems, and lived relationships with reality under colonial and modern civilisational structures. Emerging from the ongoing catastrophe in West Papua, the framework argues that colonial violence operates not only through physical domination, but through the restructuring of the psychological, epistemological, ecological, and metaphysical conditions through which peoples understand existence itself. Grounded in Lani cosmology, the paper establishes Wone as the ontological foundation of the framework and develops a comparative philosophical analysis alongside concepts such as Logos, Dao, Maʿat, Dabar, Mana, and Wakan Tanka. It introduces the Lani ontological vocabulary as a comprehensive Indigenous philosophical system and outlines the mechanism of the Civilisational Psycho-Cosmocide Virus (CPCV), including its stages of transmission, symbolic operations, and contemporary digital manifestations. The paper further presents the Eight Atlases of Human Reality, the Dynamic Atlas Model of civilisation survival and collapse, the Noah’s Ark survival function, and the three existential pathways available within the contemporary civilisational condition: compliance, resistance, and Wonesis. Situated within civilisational collapse theory, decolonial philosophy, Indigenous ontology, and metaphysical critique, the framework synthesises insights from ecological collapse studies, postcolonial theory, simulation theory, epistemicide studies, and comparative cosmology into a unified diagnostic model. The paper concludes by arguing that modern civilisation is undergoing a progressive fragmentation of the cosmological and epistemological foundations necessary for sustaining coherent human existence, and proposes Wonesis as an orientational response grounded in memory, land, relationality, and cosmological continuity.
