Name: Mystic Church

Motto: The major deeds of today become the mythical tales of tomorrow.

Main principles:

1. The mystic religion is indifferent as to whether there is a god, and is compatible with theism and nontheism alike.
    

2. The mystic religion focuses on life in this world - the present world is an end in itself instead of simply preparation of a world to come.
    

3. The true nature of life is contained in the doctrine of “aura”: that human excellence consists in inspiring fellow humans to achieve greater deeds and create the myths of tomorrow. Mystics learn to master “aura” from legends of yesterday and today. 
    

4. Mystics focus on pilgrimages and appreciation of relics to master “aura”. 
    

5. Mystics believe that because the myths from the past were once also themselves human deeds guided by “aura”, history is cyclical and there is much to be learnt from history. As such, mystic temples are places of study for history, philosophy, literature and the arts.
