Philosophy and teachings[]

The Creator[]

the Temple Believes in a supreme being called Unetlanvhi, or the Apportioner. also refered to as simply "the Creator"

The Wahnenauhi Manuscript says that God is Unahlahnauhi, meaning "maker of all things" and Kalvlvtiahi, meaning "The one who lives above". In most myths the Great Spirit is not personified as having human characteristics or a physical human form but is generally considered as a feminine entity/force

Djinn(Gods & Goddess, Demons)[]

The Temple Believe that many "Deities" of other beliefs are Djinn, a Supernatural Race of powerful beings, simular to humans and possessing free will. it is believed that some deities are the same being in different lifetimes or assumed to be different by Humans. it is common to call Venerated female Djinn Goddess but the temple refrains from calling Venerated Male Djinn "Gods" as the term is considered to have a polytheistic Meaning.
