Let us share our mission, purpose and vision
Mission
Our mission is to help individuals, groups, and organizations to develop their inner culture, align with their purpose, and integrate will through through Functional Spiritual Intelligence (FSI) and The Integrative Growth Architecture™ (IGA)—providing not just insight, but repeatable structures frameworks.
Our work supports people not only in understanding who they are—but in developing the capacity to live it, lead with it, and scale with it under real conditions.
Vision
We believe existence has already resolved the deeper puzzle of life and creation. Our vision is to help individuals and organizations embody the pulse of their true nature—so they can create meaningful action, lasting impact and contribute their unique brilliance to the world.
When people and organizations are internally coherent, their unique brilliance emerges naturally—translating into inspired intentions, purposeful action, ethical impact, and contributions that strengthen the world rather than deplete it.
The Spark
The Main experience that sparked the idea that will become The structure that is One Living Roots
One day, after witnessing images of war and violence unravel in a distant part of the world, I sat down in my room—a few years ago now—and entered into a deep meditation to get into communion with the divine. In that stillness, something began to stir! Like a radiant lightbulb igniting in a pitch-black room—impossible to ignore —an emotion rose within me, quietly at first, like a whisper in a the vastness of space. My entire body was called to attention. The emotion swelled, turning first into surprise—then, unexpectedly, into a profound sense of peace. Then, without warning, came a question that echoed like a bell in the depth of my soul: "Why wars, atrocities, and so much violence - Is that our faith as humans?"
The question didn’t arise from my mind. It arrived from somewhere else —from a place that felt beyond time, yet more intimate than thought. Then, it came: a message, subtle yet thunderous in its energy.
“You do not have the WILL to be yourself."
Those words weren’t just heard—they resonated. As if the vibration of that sentence came with ancient echoes, countless layers of meaning folded within each syllable. It was divine, yet personal. The energy of the word “YOU” and “WILL” were palpable. A riddle. A key. A burden and a liberation. I was shocked, yes—but also relieved. Shocked, because I could feel the depth beneath the words, the vast ocean of truth they barely revealed. That moment marked the beginning of a personal quest to unravel the true meaning of those simple words, but more specifically, the word “WILL”.
Founder — Ako Kitissou
Ako Kitissou is a metaphysical philosopher, integrative systems thinker, and the creator of the Functional Spiritual Intelligence (FSI) framework. His work operates at the intersection of spiritual wisdom, psychology, systems thinking, and organizational development—bringing coherence to domains where insight frequently outpaces embodiment.
Recognized for translating complex philosophical and spiritual concepts into grounded, functional frameworks, Ako’s work focuses on how meaning, ethics, identity, power, and responsibility operate in real human systems—individuals, leaders, and organizations alike. He challenges the prevailing assumption that awareness alone produces transformation, emphasizing instead the decisive role of functional capacity, inner coherence, and sustainable integration.
Drawing on more than two decades of cumulative study and applied experience across spiritual traditions, human behavior, leadership dynamics, and developmental theory, Ako speaks to a broad audience—seekers, executives, founders, and institutions navigating growth in an increasingly complex and pressure-filled world.

His approach is deliberately non-dogmatic while remaining firmly rooted in spiritual intelligence as an applied discipline—one that must be lived, regulated, and structurally embodied to be effective. From an early age, Ako demonstrated a deep fascination with spirituality, the human condition, the integrative intelligence of nature, technological innovation, and the subtle interplay between inner development and external systems.
In practice, he is known as a meditation expert, intuitive reader, dynamic creator, problem solver, entrepreneur, and business growth solution provider. Guided by internal standards of excellence and a commitment to exceed both personal and organizational expectations, Ako brings original perspectives, rigorous thinking, and practical clarity to every program, body of content, and consulting engagement.
He is the founder of One Living Roots, an integrated developmental ecosystem created to support individuals, leaders, and organizations in building coherence, capacity, and sustainable transformation—without ideology, without bypass, and without collapse.
