"You are born empty-handed, and you die empty handed" ~ Boon
Many children around the age of 12 were standing in a large marble hallway in military formation, hand on their chest and head up with pride, chanting:
"Oh, the great boon, creator, and maintainer of the universe.
Soul of the universe using only a fraction of his being,
The god of all gods,
The cause of all causes,
The Supersoul that exists in every living entities heart,
I give you nothing but pure devotional service,
I know not to be motivated by the fruits of my actions,
and not to long for inaction,
I understand that everything happens for a reason,
and I must swear to the duties of my caste."
This was a school hidden away from society. There are hundreds of these schools all over the world, which prophecises on ancient ways of how the world works and how humanity should be driven to benefit the future of our existence. It's not exactly a cult since the only way in is to be born into a family which serves the almighty boon.
Boon is the creator of all universes. This truth is known by the founders who go back many generations to the first humans. Their job was simple, learn the art of virtue and pass it down to each successive generation in the family. Not many boon families exist in our modern age, but there are still enough around the world to succeed in our duties.
Duties, you may be asking what we mean about these duties. It's a bit simple. The great boon creates souls from different parts of his body which inhibit a human body or animal body depending on the soul's fullness. A soul from boon's head into a human creates a priest whose duty it is to study the ancient texts written by boon himself and spread the knowledge and intelligence to all other classes, in other words, be one's life coach. You have warriors whose soul comes from his chest. They primarily have to live by the sword and die by the sword. They can also be leaders and rulers in which their central role is to be the protector of people to the day they die. Upkeepers come from the thighs. Their primary purpose is to create and distribute value to society. This can be from farming, running a business, investing, etc. And you have the last class called the lights, which come from the feet. Easy enough their duty is to serve the upper classes the best they can.
Each class is distinguished from their energies and natural talents, for example, warriors will be mentally more robust, and upkeepers would be smarter and more cunning. The academies tailor the training and education for each class so they can perform their duties at the best of their abilities in devotion. For example a child with an upkeepers class will learn all sorts of business skills from a young age and warriors would obviously get trained in all types of martial arts and weaponry from the time they can walk and talk.
This secret society creates a breed of humans which exceed that of the 'public born' humans due to the vigorous training in virtue and discipline. The primary goal is simple. To maintain long lasting world peace and to please the great boon above.
Although the boon society has been growing strong and many dynasties have been around for generations the rise of sin and corruption is something inevitable which is causing all sorts of chaos not only in public but also inside the societies as well. The war of the two cousins in the Swamy dynasty over 20 years ago brought a lot of families extinction and to this day affect the ill motives of the younger generation that seek revenge for their ancestors. For the students, it's not only staying devoted to the words of boon but also detaching themselves from the material world, and the things poison in it.
