Harmonism is the common religious practice throughout the Pallathantic Region of simultaneously honoring the gods and Saints of the Old Religion, the Arathracian Religion, and the Incarnandist Religion without acknowledging the supremacy of any ecclesiastical hierarchy. The wide-spread appeal of harmonism answers to the need for cooperation and daily meaning in spirituality. Harmonism is more than simply tolerance, but a recognition of the historic worth of the three main religions of Pallathantic Civilization. One who practices harmonism is a harmonist.

Origins

Harmonism draws its roots to the practices of local rulers in the many centurie after the Fall of the Yophenthean Empire and began to have many adherents in the 25th century after the defeat of the Chaos Rulers of the Middle Ages. Scholars see harmonism as an adaptation of pre-Arathracian polytheism.

Practice

A harmonist can utter a verse of Arathracian scripture at sunrise to greet the sun, say a Incarnandist prayer while passing the shrine of an Incarnandist Saint on the way to the market, and make an offering of wine and grain at the ancestral altar of his parents.
