  • kowl'eerí'na (pl. kowl'eerí'ni, literally 'beautification [of a prayer]'): A Shalaian liturgical poem, often as part of a D/s kink ritual. Melodies for kowl'eerí'ni are set to either a solo voice with accompaniment or a choir; they are in some ways similar to Ashkenazi Jewish liturgical melodies but employ more exotic tunings (like JI and 31-tone equal temperament) and rhythms (such as Scotch snaps). Art music set to those liturgical poems also exists.

S

  • Saints are figures of exemplary holiness (devotion or righteousness) in Josephanism who have attained eternal life and now intercede on behalf of the worshipper, as in Catholicism. Josephanism recognizes the prophets in the Hebrew Bible and Jesus of Nazareth as Saints, as well as other figures.
  • shrine: an AETHER locale created to worship a specific person in kink contexts. A shrine can look like anything; it may be a church-like building.
