| | Ahriyan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The main theme is the war between Angra Mainyu and Ahura Mazda in Zoroastran theology which is an antique Iran religion. | | | At least after a thousand-year oral tradition, in twenty one-part Avesta which was probably written in B.C. 6, ‘angra’ means enemy, sin, bad and ‘mainyu’ (mainyêush, mainyô, mainyush, mainyû) means soul, invisibility, spiritual. | | | Although it is used common ahriman forms in Anatolia, there appear to be uncommon ahriman forms in Salpazarı which has Alevilik (partisan of the caliph Ali) features. |

| | Zoroastrianism |
| | Zoroaster taught that humanity is confronted by an ultimate choice, between the exclusive worship of the good Ahura Mazda on one side, and the evil of Angra Mainyu and the false gods or daevas on the other. | | | The Avesta is the sacred text of Zoroastrianism, written in a language known as Avestan. | | | Believers must choose right, as Zoroaster did, and reject evil by dedicating their lives to Mazda and realising in person the various aspects of the divine nature in which everyone can share. |

| | Ahura Mazda/Angra Mainyu |
| | As Zoroastrianism evolved, Angra Mainyu was elevated to a near-equal of Ahura Mazda, and Zoroastrianism became the most purely dualistic religion that I know of. | | | Ahura Mazda had various personified aspects, and darkness and evil was personified as Angra Mainyu. | | | Ever since I the time I first heard of Zoroastrianism when I was 13, I have thought that seeing the universe as the battleground of two evenly matched gods of good and evil explained a lot more about the way things are than does monotheism. |

| | Zoroaster personifies this dualism in a pair of spirits called Ahura Mazda (“Wise Lord,” known as Ohrmazd in Middle Persian), and Angra Mainyu (“Evil Spirit,” known as Ahriman in Middle Persian). | | | Ahura Mazda is said to have created six Amesha Spentas (“Holy Immortals”), who represent aspects of material creation, in addition to other minor spiritual beings who assist in protecting the world and all creatures. | | | The Zoroastrian doctrine of heaven, hell, and limbo influenced other faiths. |

| | Angra Mainyu is evil by choice, having allied himself with Lie, whereas Spenta Mainyu has chosen Truth. | | | All evil is caused by the "twin" of Spenta Mainyu, who is Angra Mainyu (the "Fiendish Spirit"; Persian. | | | Zoroaster's teaching is praised and revered in the later section; its religious outlook, however, in part amalgamating earlier beliefs in Persia, is quite different from that of the Gathas. |

| | Angra Mainyu (lie) chose evil and was associated with destruction, injustice and death, all of which are related to evil. | | | (since Spenta Mainyu was associated with man in nature, here may be the origin of the Islamic belief that man is the pinnacle of creation. | | | Thus there would be time for the purification by fire of the spirits of the evil doers, making it possible for them to take part in the last renewal of the world. |

| | THE NOTION OF DUALISM |
| | Mardanfarrokh did so by contrasting the dualistic worship of Ahura Mazda (ormazd) the creator God and condemnation of Angra Mainyu (Ahreman) the destructive devil to the monotheistic veneration of Allah who, according to Islamic belief, is the ultimate source of all things good and evil. | | | Perhaps the slow but steady spread of Zurvanism, which sought to depict Ahura Mazda and Angra Mainyu as dualistic twins born from a singular spiritual being or God of time named Zurvan, reflected a desire for a return to the more fluid ethical dualism or even a change to a variety of quasi-monotheism. | | | As the fount of truth, Ahura Mazda's basic nature or hypostasis would then be represented in the prophet's hymns by the term Sepanta Mainyu or the Holy Spirit. |

| | Ahriman is not mentioned in the Gathas, neither is angra mainyu, as an entity, nor indeed is any evil deity mentioned, except for the local gods whom Zarathushtra denounces as fierce, oppressive and cruel. | | | That the benevolent spirit (spenta mainyu) is not an entity but a benevolent disposition or impulse which exists at both the divine and human levels may be seen from a number of verses. | | | I think the two mainyu or "spirits" referred to in verse 3 have to be interpreted in conjunction with the phrase "two choices of decision" in verse 2. |
