Mărotłite tradition translates the word as 'fulfill', i.e. follow the law, whereas Ngedhraism and other religions prefer the translation 'complete'. | ||

According to Snielism, or Mărotłite mysticism, it is entirely separate from any god. The Second Mover is often called '''the Nameless''' (''φid mo tsip χum''), the idea being that following the Second Mover should not be about pursuing a name or following a predetermined procedure. Mărotłites would at best balk at "naming the Nameless" (Windermere: ''chithum fid mo tsip chum''), i.e. identifying the Second Mover with a specific god or human, like [[Verse:Tricin/ | According to Snielism, or Mărotłite mysticism, it is entirely separate from any god.

The originally Mărotłian concept of ''hăldifăreatü'' is a principle of nonviolence, analogous to ''ahiṃsa'' in Dharmic religions. (The [[Windermere]] word ''hăldifăreatü'' means 'non-violence' or 'non-aggression'.) Mărotłian ''hăldifăreatü'' allows violence in retaliation or self-defense, or as a punishment for violence - the reasoning was that aggression is so serious that it should be discouraged by any means necessary. There has been much debate among Talman thinkers on exactly how much retributive violence is justified. | The originally Mărotłian concept of ''hăldifăreatü'' is a principle of nonviolence, analogous to ''ahiṃsa'' in Dharmic religions.

Like Judaism, and its sister religion [[Verse:Tricin/ | Like Judaism, and its sister religion [[Verse:Tricin/Ngedhraism|Ngedhraism]], Mărotłism has an "open source" textual canon which allows additions. Thinkers from different time periods and environments have their own interpretations, though often informed by previous ones, on what exactly the philosophy entails about how humans ought to live. In particular, literalism contrary to known science is discouraged. | ||
