Spiritus Sancti
The Illuminated believe that the original being, the divine Unity in its perfection, must emanate lesser selves into the universe. Like a fire, the heat of the divine grows weaker the further it gets from the source. In short, the dark imperfections of the world, including vampires, exist in the shadows cast at the edge of the Unity’s own light.
The Mystikoi also accept the Holy Trinity of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Each is an aspect of the Unity that has been emanated into the world. The Father is the Logos, the most perfect emanation of the Unity that can exist until all is reintegrated into a perfect singularity. The Son (in short, Christ) is the divine guide sent by the Father into the world of the living to show Humanity the way to return to the Unity. The Holy Spirit (the spiritual realms) is the animating breath that envelops the world like a net, saving it from a fall into complete material squalor. Through the secrets of Spiritus Sancti, the Mystikoi peel back the layers of the world like an onion, delving into the darkness within and finding an enlightened communion with their own Beast.
