Via

Latest revision as of 10:25, 7 October 2026

Via, Latin for "Path," is the term Infinists use to address the eternal path.

Why Pray?

Infinists may pray or meditate to Via to provide peace, voice desires for one's own path, or ask for greater understanding about the Infinite Journey and one's place in it.

Is Via God?

Via is like a non-anthropomorphic deity. Events will continue to unfold eternally along one’s path, and any event could be happy or tragic to any degree.

Nothing can stop one's path from unfolding: Via is eternal. However, what lies next along one's path is unknown. If an individual desires to direct their thoughts or prayers, or finds doing so helpful, they may direct their thoughts towards the eternal path itself.

Examples

It could be as simple as a person with sleep paralysis praying for it to end.

It could be a person who has been diagnosed with cancer and prays for the best road ahead: not just for them, but for all as everyone will eventually be where they are.

And if it must be one's turn for the worst, they may pray for the strength to endure or pray that their ephemeral ephemeral suffering is rewarded in the New Heaven.

They may ask that only this tentum be theirs to bear now, and that they awaken free from pain and suffering.
