FREX, I ask some, sometimes there are no answer even from Metcalph,
it suggests some reason:
1: there are no answer, unintentionally (this is mere case I know, Digesters
already did everything like Doraddi)
2: flat line of blank area (debate coming to too heat, so powers decide to
ignore this area)
3: work in progress of greg (caution! he is master of the Mainstream world!)
4: blank area for world flexibility (similarity to 2, but digesters
positively admit this condition, blank area isn't always same. please think
about Balazar(Griffin Mountain) condition for commercial reason in
Avalonhill?)
5: my idea awfully far from mainstream (persecution complex? if so, please
teach me)

I guess this condition is called as Utuma (this means self-suicide and dismemberment, and creats many lifes in limited time cycle for mystical reason. But this case is for pragmatcal reason.)

I think rationalism is a point of view, In Glorantha, Malkioni and Mostali
use logical scientific method, but it doesn't mean they cannot use method of
heroquest, ancestor conjuration, beating demons with demon weapons,
etc...And RW confucians surely destroyed many folk mithos for their purpose
like in GROY Plentonius tried to incorporate good gods and evil gods of
local culture into his tree table of Emperors, but they were still
ancestor-worshiper, astrologer. The reason why they are called Rationalist
is they called so themselves as Romans.
In both subjective and objective terms, Glorantha afford weak peoples remain
illusion. Imo, Glorantha circumstance made this two obscure. Rationalism
easily succumbs to Power.
>I suspect that there are six Darudist methods, one for each of

But in older version of Glorantha, Eastern Pantheon associated with Solar Pantheon. Even if antagonism like Pent and Dara Happa burn once more, still hostility to GL idea is greater. I expect more openhandism in Older Dara Happa.
Who are they?
Patanjali: RW?
Thank you for your sincere answer.

I think translating your document of "Oroninela" into Japanese, but IMO,
Most
part of Entekosiad is difficult for Game use for many reason except latter
part . Boardgame has more flexibility for this structuratism
(pedantism?) .
Short Heroquesting:
In Glorantha, players roleplaying a character who roleplaying action of his
god.
(FREX, argrath roleplaying harmast roleplaying orlanth, meriatan roleplaying
snodal roleplaying hrestol, etc...)
If supporter of his act is none, he isn' t hero.
Orlanth eats breakfast.
Yelm sleeps with Dendara.
I think some minority people can see this is sacred deed. If so, there is no normal environment all over the world of Glorantha. I think great heros like Harrek in the condition of "all day are heroquest" like God Age.
