Though I will be depicting what events brought me to this mysterious culture, I would like everyone to know the underlying element that makes the Myarabhati so interesting.
First and foremost, the Myarabhati live under the practice of inedite, or the art of being inconspicuous. At some point in their hundreds of years history, the Myarabhati developed a way to exist on the earth without drawing attention. It's philosophy is rooted in the essence of working with nature. As soon as a child is born into their culture, they are taught not to leave any mark behind them. This goes so far as that belief that upon death, the spirit must then retrace it's steps erasing anything that might point to it being there. If it doesn't, the spirit is not allowed to pass on.
Secondly, after they're eventual expulsion from their natural home, the Myarabhati had to adapt new ways into which to exist. As their philosophy already preached strong humility, it was only natural that their culture began to ferment this idea even more. I cannot say for certain when it happened, as such about them is still unknown, but somewhere after the first three hundred years or so, the Myarabhati began existing among other tribes without them knowing. I will go into this further in later posts, but in essence, this means that they blended into wherever they may be.
Thirdly, with the combination of both points above, it is now easy to see that the Myarabhati, though believed to be an extinct tribe of early man, may very well be alive and well, living among us today. They are not social chameleons--as some might portray them. No, instead, they bend where others don't. Any with a basic knowledge of Taoism has heard the adage of water: it appears weak and to fold around everything, but there in lies its strength. The Myarabhati are water incarnate.
