    Keys: "舍迦罗耆", Mahrag, Sekharashkin, Reincarnation, Inayat, "天賜教", "摩訶罗葛", "The Measure"

    "天賜教" (Inayat) does not deny the existence of Gods, but it also does not consider Gods to be supreme powers. Central to Inayat worship is a concept called "The Measure". Under "The Measure", even gods are equal to all living beings. "The Measure" is an ultimate, unknowable Divine law, manifests or emanates into everything through two primary, opposing, yet interconnected aspects: "摩訶罗葛" (Mahrag) the power of Architecting, and "舍迦罗耆" (Sekharashkin) the power of unraveling. Every thought, word, and deed aligns the Soul more closely with either Mahrag or Sekharashkin. This alignment generates Resonance, which dictates the circumstances of future rebirths within the Reincarnation.
