Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This two-dimensional, oblique representation of an octisected sphere is the symbol for the religion of Perístanom. Perístanom is a modern Pagan religion, a spiritual path that offers naturalistic explanations to support traditionally supernatural beliefs. It provides a rational basis for religious faith without invoking any hidden plane of existence. It endeavors to be a spirituality compatible with science, a metaphysics in accord with physics. Perístanom celebrates and reveres all of life, however humble, in all of its vital diversity. The web of life will continue to evolve into the far future, when mortals will become gods, when the creation will become the creator, when the cosmos will causally generate itself in an eternal cycle of rebirth. Perístanom asserts that a multitude of gods exists (polytheism), that these gods communicate with each one of us through our dreams and visions (revelation), and that they will in the distant future assume physical form (incarnation). Perístanom insists that every physical entity possesses a spiritual essence (animism), regarding consciousness as a primordial feature of all things (panpsychism). It proclaims that the final state of the universe shapes its evolution (teleology), and that the divine pervades and transcends the cosmos (panentheism). Perístanom, meaning ‘the religion’, embraces all spiritual traditions of the world (interfaith).

The outside border is supposed to be the top layer, but it somehow drops down after the file is saved. I'm uploading a version this time with all the elements ungrouped, to see if that...
