It's not that it's a rare version of Christianity it's that these esoteric symbols are archetypal ie: same across culture. The Mary and baby Jesus archetypal symbol is present in many cultures (see comments) and this small community have held onto these same archetypal religious symbols that are similar to western Christianity's symbols.
What I found interesting is that these adherents of this path of worship are the last of their kind, they say after them the path will be darkened because nobody is left to carry the flame.
That's prophetic right there....for those with eyes to see.

I never knew of this and that is beautiful and sad at the same time.
