Pukleshi is a young belief system revolving around enlightenment. Their main teachings revolve around inner peace and knowledge, and these teachings are often passed on through moments of quiet meditation and seeking your inner self. Pukleshi teachings come from spiritual leaders who have volunteered to be teachers and mentors. They often express their beliefs through shrines, vases and necklaces. Despite being a young belief system, Pukleshi has managed to establish itself as a serious and respected way of life. More and more communities see Pukleshi as a way to enrich their lives.
The leader of the Pukleshi is called The Seer and leads the entire planet. He and his Disciples live in the capital while other leaders in the religion follow his guidelines and teach the rest of the world how to live.
The Seer only wishes to use his knowledge to bring joy and happiness to the people of Teus.

# Hellenists The Hellenists are a small group of people on various worlds who believe that the ancient Greek gods followed humans into space. The gods and titans of Ancient Earth Mythology are worshipped with fervour and it is not uncommon to find a prophet of Apollo in the numerous space ports throughout the sector. With the recent emergence of psychics, the religion has begun to gain a bit more traction. People claiming to be blessed by the gods with these new powers. There are even rumours of an Oracle that has been reading futures to those who can find her on Gogeourni. # Kimudoism
Kimudoism believes in the divine nature of the natural world. It does not see the natural world as a singular, personal deity, but instead as a living force of power. This power, known as the River, flows through all people and effects them in different ways, but it is the root of the soul. Upon death, the soul simply leaves the body it was inhabiting and returns to the flow of the River until it once again finds its way to a new vessel; be that person, animal, tree, or otherwise. It is believed that psionic powers, with the exception of metapsionics, are an affront to the River due to their potential to disrupt and alter both time and space.
##### Divine Origins
Kimudoism began with the reemergence of psionics in the sector. It was picked up by the original rulers of the Sha Savirit Empire and eventually adopted as the cultural religion.
##### Priesthood
Metapsionics are seen as a necessary evil gifted to humanity by the River in order to open the way to purging those truly riddled with sin. Many priests within Kimudoism are metapsions who spend most of their time helping the Agency of Psionic Enforcment.
##### Sects
A small subsection of Kimudoism, separate from the Empire, follow much of the same practices but believe that Psionics are a gift from the River and actively seek them out for wisdom and leadership.
