Dagdaism

Many Tribes are needed to show the beauty of nature

Dagdaism - Born out of the Elements

Spirituality

Humans are only one Tribe among others on this plane. To connect the different tribes and contributing as well as gather the wisdom of the elements is the spiritual way of the shamans of Dagdaism. Gatherings are held on planes all tribes can reach and the chieftains of the respective tribes are sharing their teachings with each other. The way of the Spirits.
When all tribes are connected the Golden Age of Equality will arise. There is much work to do and our technics and rituals help us to keep the connection open and join the gatherings of our relatives, the Spirits and chieftains of the Tribes.
Dagdaism is a religion that follows the tradition of verbal teachings and scripts might appear some day but it is very unlikely.

History

Politics & Economy

In general the Order is not involving itself with politics or economy.
There might be situations where individuals seek the wisdom of the Order to solve different conflicts or to help with their guidance in diplomatic missions.
If the mission is not contradicting the principals of equality the elders will name a worthy priest to fullfill this task.

Visions

The founding of Dagdaism
It was in the late afternoon when Caitlin reached the place the spirits had told her to search on the north side of the vulcano. Wearing cloth she made from deers leather and packed with all the necessary objects she approached the warm and foggy spot.

It was a pond of hot water surrounded by black smokers. The Fire and Water was strong here and she praised the Elements for their decision.

Building up the altar like she was instructed took her about 3 hours. The Lava Stone was easy to carve and she had no difficulties to cut in the needed symbols representing the Dagdas of several tribes.

Once finished the woman started to brew a tea out of several herbs, mushrooms she had gathered the last weeks and the water from the pond. Drinking the tea she started singing and drumming and calling the spirits of the Islands to this most sacred place.

After a while Caitlin lied down and concentrated on the pictures and messages the spirits would share.
...
It was after midnight and Caitlin opened her eyes and watched the sky. A light wind had blown away the fog from the hot pond and the air smelled fresh and clean when a breeze from the sea touched her face.

This is what happens when elements and spirits vibrate in equality, she thought and stood up slowly.

But this was not the same woman any more, there was a fire and enthusiasm in her eyes that prosecuted her slow movements. Slow, aware would be a better description.

She looked at the altar that she build and sent a small prayer to the Dagdas of the tribes.

"Thank you all for sharing this with us. The Human Tribe is joining you now."

Then she turned around and headed for the Stronghold, the plans to the Temple in her head.

Solaria and the White Tree of Oroya
The last night I had a dream, I saw the white tree burning. But I also saw a caryopsis floating down from the sky, it seemed as it would be carried by a greater might then everything I felt before in my life.

Then a voice spoke to me: "Even if the last tree falls, I am still here and I cant be chopped down, as long as there are people who carry the trees and forests in their hearts just like you! Find the grain of the future!"

So this means to me that I have a new task.

I would like to ask you mother, if [...] i could become a priestess?!

Ranksystem

There are two pathes one can follow when joining the "Human Tribe"

They are equal in importance and wouldnt be able to exist without each other.

The one way is the supporting way, the caring way, the way that brings the freedom of contemplation. This way we call the Path of Earth, cause it is the base and builds the foundation for the other way.

This way is the searching way, the connecting way, the way that brings wisdom and serenity. This way we call the Path of Fire, cause it is the everlasting flame that keeps the hearts and minds moving, thinking, feeling ... living.

The Fire needs the wood that is growing from the Earth or it wouldnt even exist, the Earth would be cold and clammy without the warmth of the Fires of Wisdom.
