Within these pages, you'll discover the Eight Commandments of Smoothness, the Prophecies of the Great Razor, and the rituals that lead to ultimate clarity and freedom. From creation myths to hymns of praise, the book explores themes of vanity, humility, and enlightenment, all through the lens of a fictional, tongue-in-cheek religion that elevates baldness to a sacred state of being.
The Shorn Custodians, priests of the faith, lead followers through rituals of purification, daily anointment with sacred oils, and the rejection of vanity and pride. As the faithful await the prophesied Day of the Great Razor, where all hair will be banished and smoothness shall reign, they learn to embrace the simple, reflective beauty of a bald scalp.
With its detailed world-building, mock-serious tone, and whimsical philosophy, NIVOB delivers a unique blend of humor, satire, and thoughtful commentary on the nature of belief and identity. Whether you're bald, balding, or just looking for a laugh, this is the ultimate read for those who want to explore a fantastical religion based on smoothness and eternal reflection.
Praise be to the Great Bald One
Amen, and Smooth Forever.
