Orphic philosophy
Orphic philosophy is an ancient spiritual tradition centered on the myth of Orpheus, emphasizing the soul’s divine origin and its journey through rebirth. It teaches that humans contain a divine spark trapped within the material world and seeks spiritual purification and enlightenment. Practitioners believe in divine law, moral purity, and the possibility of escaping the cycle of rebirth (metempsychosis) through rituals and righteous living. The philosophy combines mystery rites, symbolism, and moral teachings aimed at achieving spiritual liberation by reconnecting with the divine source.
