Religion

Pure Land Buddhism + Christianity

Hetmic religion is essentially Pure Land Buddhism but more proselytizing. They apply the concept of karma and reincarnation to the world collectively in addition to individual humans. That's how the world itself began and ended many times; if humanity collectively behaves badly enough, an apocalypse will come due to the accrued karmic debt and a new universe will arise from the ashes. One is hence exhorted to seek enlightenment, both on a personal level and the societal level.

Music

Instruments

One style of Hetmic music is polyphonic vocal music.

Tuning

• people do specifically 19-TET stuff: pseudo-slendro, bluesy stuff...
