The Iriali worship a god they call "One". According to this belief, the One knew everything but had experienced nothing. And so the One became Many in order to experience all things. As each experience is different, it brings completeness to the One. Eventually, all will be gathered back in when the sum of land is attained and they will once again become One. Every person is a different mind of a single being experiencing different lives. As Many, they need ignorance. Each fragment of the One’s mind has its own body with different passions and inclinations. They exist in variety to experience all kinds of thought. That means some people must know and others must not. Just like some people must be rich and others poor.{{book ref|sa2|i|2}}
This religion and its philosophy of one becoming many may be slightly influenced by the [[Shattering]] of [[Adonalsium]].{{wob ref|14397}} The philosophy behind the One is that the [[Spiritual Realm]] and the [[Beyond]] are the same thing and that, when a person dies, their soul goes with their [[Investiture]] to the Spiritual Realm. Most [[cosmere]] philosophers disagree with this belief.{{wob ref|1729}}
