Roshanniya Movement
Roshanniya Movement (or Illuminati) is the set of teachings of Pir Roshan which his people followed. The movement had one focal teaching; equality of every man and woman. This included the idea that based on birth no one could become a religious leader or King. These titles are to be earned in one's life through hard work alone. Having access to only two books on Pir Roshan, all of the English translations associated Pir Roshan to have started a spiritual sect which believed in the transmigration of souls and in the representation of God through individuals. This information also led some writers to associate the movement with everything from Ismailis to Kharijites to Shia or Sufi influences.

Famous quotes containing the word movement:
“Our movement took a grip on cowardly Marxism and from it extracted the meaning of socialism. It also took from the cowardly middle-class parties their nationalism. Throwing both into the cauldron of our way of life there emerged, as clear as a crystal, the synthesis—German National Socialism.”
—Hermann Goering (1893–1946)
