Tanets Solntsa

Tanets Solnsta is a sect of Orthodox Christianity, believed by many to be heretical, which combines the traditional mythologies of Osorrai folk faiths,, and Christianity. Tanets Solnsta believes that the Absolute God, the Viracocha, created reflections of himself with the first Sapa and Inti. The faith believes humanity is merely a finite version of the Viracocha, and to forestall the Great Nothingness must embrace their true form, a superconsciousness akin to that of Absolute Reality. Tanets Solnsta believes this is achieved through trying to cleanse oneself of Original Sin by following the teachings of the Church of the Sun, baptism, prayer, negation of ignorance, negation of backwardness, and revealing all of ones sins to the patriarch. The faith recognizes both traditional Yarovar and traditional Osorrai holidays, both of which have equal importance. Tanets Solnsta is particularly recognized for not outright rejecting polytheism, but believing traditional Osorrai deities are forces of the Absolute. The faith has a rich tradition of poetry, architecture, literature, and music and is known for its mysticism and occultism. It is one of the only Anterran religions to achieve synthesis with Futurism, believing that technology is a way to capture energy flows lost to the Great Nothingness and return to the Viracocha.
