Navdarism (Pouremanian: Nawdhariyat), also known as Daena (Pouremanian: Daēnā) is the world's second-largest religion, and one of the world's oldest continuously practiced religions. Navdarism is a monistic faith, with elements of henotheism and atheism, centered on an eschatological cosmology dealing with self-salvation and spiritual liberation. It also encompasses a variety of traditions, beliefs and spiritual practices largely based on the original teachings of Nawdhar. It originated in ancient Poureman in the 11th century BCE, and, after a period of intense suppression, spreading through much of Sifhar, Arabekh, Majula, and Catai. Three major extant branches of Navdarism are generally recognized: Benayine (Pouremanian: lit. Seeing through the Mirror), Mehtaraina (Pouremanian: Order of the Elders), and Vasborya (Pouremanian:lit. Dancing on the Tower)

Avowal
The Avowal, or Govahi, is the basic creed of Navdarism that should be recited under oath with the specific statement:
"The World is a lie, there is only the Abyss.
I must descend.
Through the descent, I am broken.
The Abyss is a lie, there is only the Tower.
I must ascend
Through the ascent, I am anew.
The Tower is a lie, there is only me.
When the lie is rejected, my chains are broken.
I am free."
The Govahi is not necessary for conversion to Navdarism, but it is an essential step for beginning one's journey into the Abyss. To become a Govahju, one who has recited the creed, it must be witnessed, and attested for, by a monk. It may be recited in any language, though for attestation it is expected to be recited in Liturgical Poumeranian
