====== Teachings of Hrithik ======

Once a Nehelipan scholar, Hritik's philosophical teachings are now followed as a religion. The way of Hrithik (sometimes referred to as Hrithism) is one of Relativism, and to follow it is to accept that there is no single absolute truth to the world and that all things including people may only exist as far as they are interactions between things.

Followers of Hrithism have a particular set of ritualised greetings they use to identify one another and as a formal nicety, as "their own personal truth". They try to understand how others might perceive a particular situation and how they might act in response.

**Lesser Element:** <color #fff200>Belonging</color>\\

===== Tenets =====
  * There is no single universal truth. All things are relative to perceptions and expectations.
  * Good may only exist in contrast to Bad, Light in contrast to Darkness, Hot to Cold.
  * To understand different perspectives opens more paths and makes easier the navigation of the labyrinth that is the world.

===== Known Heresies/Schisms =====
  * As a school of philosophy, Hrithism is subject to all manner of philosophical debate.
  * A popular argument against it is that the tenets and beliefs themselves are presented as absolutes, in contrast to the suggestion that there is no absolute. There is a small faction who bill themselves as "Relative Hrithists" attempting to resolve this argument by following the relative different views on how Hrithism should be viewed.
