Lunukism

Lunukism is a Naguan religion based on a series of teachings attributed to Savasu Srivota in the early 6th century BCE. It originated in Cananganam and was based on traditions of the Asuranesian peoples of southern Nagu in the 7th century BCE, before spreading throughout the entire Naguan continent, and reaching as far as Jute and Soltenna by the 11th century CE. Lunukism encompasses many teachings by Arndzuksra on matters of tradition, belief, and spiritual practices; as well as their resulting interpreted philosophies.

As expressed in the Three Canons, the goal of Lunukism is to overcome spiritual suffering, caused by Nakit (taboo) and the Turesa (spiritual cycle). This suffering is believed to come through lack of self-acceptance, emotional negative, abandonment of one's community, and the act of ill-will towards others regardless of community. The Lunukist schools vary on their paths to spiritual enlightenment, though most schools of thoughts pursue the path of individual perfectionism.

Lunukism has a widespread following in Nagu and regions affected by the historical Cananganamese Empire, with historically the religion being closely associated with the empire's expansion, later being propagated through its many successor states. Many of these states would in turn develop their own schools of thought and practice, with no singular head of the religion being universally recognized.
