Daheshism (in Arabic الداهشية) is a spiritual message established by Dr. Dahesh born in Jerusalem on June 1, 1909. (real name Salim Moussa Achi) in 1942:

On March 23, 1942, at the age of thirty-three, Dr. Dahesh ("Dahesh" in Arabic means "Astounder") proclaimed in Beirut a spiritual message in which he called upon all people to embrace the ideals, the essence of their religions, not reducing their faith into external shows of pagan-like rituals and practices. He declared his belief that humans—like all the other creatures on Earth—are subject to a cosmic law system.

The just dispensations of this spiritual system apportion to humans their reincarnation on Earth, or in other worlds, according to their deserts. This cycle of reincarnation will come to an end only when they achieve spiritual transcendence by their own free will, integrating themselves into the spirit world.
