Ways of Spirit

"One day as our spirits unite we become as one and bring paradise and eternal happiness to the earth once more"

- Ethal '''Ways of Spirit is a religion, the followers of which believe that humans are parts of powerful entity called the Spirit.It is said that it split in half and gave each spirit suppurate body to experience mortal pleasures and asked to be righteous, honest and zealous in exchange. After they die, they get reborn in new body. The holy scripture of the Ways of Spirit is the Ethal. It states that if as many spirits as possible unite under true banner they will get their true strength back and become one powerful spirit once again.'''

Honesty, generosity and jealousy are the greatest virtues to Spirit. This religion teaches about unity and places Ego as it is worst enemy, since it divides spirits and prevents mankind from entering new age. It is centered about overcoming that barrier to ascend and reach enlightenment. Ones that go from the righteous way so far they ca not return are known as Davas. They loose mortal body as we know it but still maintain connection to the realm of living, trying to drag as many spirits as possible with them. They spread sin, such as greed, lie, sorcery, thievery and, worst of all, godlessness. They can bribe humans by offering them money, strength or magical powers, but those only offer one life pleasures and will have a punishment in the next lifetime. Person that previously accepted those deals might be born with missing body part or terminal sickness and it might have effect on lives that follow.

Rituals
One of the most common and important rituals is the Garden of Life. Person that just became Spirit's follower has to plant a small garden in his house or in local temple. It symbolizes that he is the part of great Spirit and will one day be powerful enough to create his own realm with others just like Spirit did.
