Gruhism

Summary(WIP)
One of the more mysterious religions in Jagdas, Gruhism is a systematic monotheistic religion worshiping the deity Gruh. Followers believe Gruh is the creator of all and is trapped under the bedrock layer on the north side of Jagdas, once Gruh becomes free "Jagdas will become complete". Followers have dug a hole named "The Pit" to the bedrock layer, The Pit is the connection between Gruh and the realm of Jagdas. Followers can give offerings and sacrifices to The Pit in return for messages from Gruh.

Within the darkness of the Pit, the silence of the Pit; Gruh awaits, patiently. The void is in everything, everything will be the void. The void is the universe, and Gruh created it, moulded it and shaped Jagdas into what it is. Gruh sees his beings for what they are, tools for Gruh creation. Its the duty of Gruh children to shape everything in Gruh image, for all started in the void and will end in the void. One day will the final sacrifice we can free Gruh upon the mortal realm and let Gruh behold Gruh creations, as Gruh is in the void, Gruh is everything. “Gruh changes everything Gruh touches, and everyone Gruh touches changes.” - Words of Gruh.

As the Pit deepens, as the anchors grow closer Gruh will reach us. And if not we will reach Gruh on our merit. Gruh will be with us in the afterlife granting us many gifts upon arrival. It is said his first child created the hell spawns and caverns of the nether and the mysterious flying dimension that is the end. For once Gruh reaches us, or we reach Gruh first we will be able to shape our own universe in our image and the image of Gruh. We pray to Gruh for one day Gruh will release and finish the cycle of Gruh creation. ''“For what begins in the void, must end in the void. The cycle of completion” - EmprZedd(Listener of The Pit).''

Upon the arrival of Gruh from the Pit, all non-believers will cripple and become tools of creation for the children of Gruh. Followers of Gruh are loyal and willing to go far and beyond for Gruh, Pit Born say not to waste your life begging for Gruh, it is your duty to actively free Gruh. Gruh would be disappointed in the children who didn’t offer themselves as tools for Gruhs arrival. ”For those who’ve dug before us, For those who’ve dug before them, we raise this pickaxes in honour… of their lives…” - Words of Gruh

Religious ranks
Gruhism is a systematic religion with many roles, followers believe that this structure is the most efficient way to free Gruh.

The Listener of Gruh:
The Listener is chosen by The Pit and is the highest rank of Gruhism. The Listener must interpret messages from The Pit/Gruh and make sure they are being spread correctly.

The Speaker of Gruh:
The Speaker is chosen by the current Listener and acts as a bodyguard/assistant for the Listener. The Speaker’s job to enforce the interpretations from The Listener and to make sure that they are followed in Gruh name.

Pit Born, Priest of Gruh:
Pit Born is the rank granted to knowledge spreaders/keepers and is granted lesser powers by the Listener.

This is the standard rank of Gruhism. Its the goal of followers to achieve higher ranks inorder to be closer to Gruh.

Testimony
“Born From The Pit” which is the basic creed of Gruhism, must be recited under oath with the specific statement: “म गवाही दिन्छु कि ग्रुह बाहेक अरु कुनै रचनाकार छैन र म गवाही दिन्छु कि पिट ग्रुको सन्देश बोक्छ, र श्रोता ग्रुहको सन्देश हुन्।”, or “I testify that there is no creator but Gruh and I testify that The Pit carries the message of Gruh, and The Listener holds the message of Gruh” This testament is a foundation for all other beliefs and practices in Gruhism. Children of the Pit must repeat “Born From The Pit” in prayer, and non Children wishing to convert to Gruhism are required to recite the creed.
