| |
| − | | |
| − | Literally translated as "flame", the concept ''flamma'' is used to designate the spiritual essences, the immaterial beings of both the spiritual and mortal worlds.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The ''imus flamma'' is the interior/innermost ''flamma'' of a living being: its soul. It is thought to be made of the same essence as the gods themselves, immortal and transcendent. It is thought that through the cultivation of one's ''imus flamma'' does one get closer to the gods, both in life and in the afterlife. Imus Flamma attempts to teach such attunement.

| − | Not only there is in the living a presence of the ''flamma'' in the mortal world. There are places in where the spiritual world touches the mortal, and there can been sensed the presence of the ''exter flamma''. These can be the souls of those who already departed, usually found in family shrines and temples, or the essences of the lower spirits, found in sacred places, commonly in unusual natural accidents, not rarely home of a shrine or temple themselves.

| − | The objects of worship are, in a lower scale, the ancestors and the lower spirits of the world. In an intermediary level, the saints are object of veneration. In the top of the spiritual hierarchy, object of the highest devotion, are the Gods.
