The Remonition was a schism from the Catholic Church (and eventually, from what we think of as mainstream Pauline Christianity) which began with the observation that the Trinity is not explicitly taught in the New Testament. The First Remonition was an anti-trinitarian movement and also rejected much of the philosophy that Trinitarian doctrine was based on. The Second Remonition saw the influx of (Mahayana-like) Buddhist and yogic ideas and the rejection of the then-Christian God as ultimate; a Christ was superior to all Gods. The sole faction that rejected the Second Remonition was a quasi-Spinozism (i.e. a form of metaphysical monism) and eventually became something much like our Enlightenment.

Remonitionists believe there have been several Christs throughout history (inspired by bodhisattvas); some are legendary and are worshipped like pagan gods especially in Hivantish societies.

For Earthlings, Remonitionism can appear very New Age-ish.
