What does it lead to be a Mazdeyasnic?

Before begining of this text I have to refer that the word "human being" in the Farsi language equals to more than two common words of "enson" or "adamm".

Enson as immature human being

If we begin with the semantic meaning of the word "enson" which is derived from the Arabic "ens" which in its turn has originated from its Hebrew roots "enoosh", we will find out that the meaning of it is a frail, helpless, sick and weak being, who is therefore normally out of stability and balance.

Characteristics that, with complete surprise, get originated from the intelligence aspect of enson, but of course from its negative aspect. Therefore from now on this text is going to use the translation ”immature human” for the word ”enson” which is supposed to also refer automatically to thoes characteristics above simultaneously.

Thought and illusion

The intelligence, likewise two sides of a coin, has two sides, "thought" and "illusion". The history of human beings confirms that until now, lack of information has caused severe illusions and its dominance over the mentality of more than ninety percent of them. Something that has fueled the phenomenon of vulgar populism, so that in the case of more common human beings, contamination with illusions can involve more than ninety-nine percent of their mental activity.

Adamm as mature human being

On the other hand, the Iranic conception of the same being introduces her/him as an extension of her/his God, Ahuramazda, in helping this God to eliminate the shortcomings and deficiencies of the same God or the Existence, and therefore chooses the name ”adamm” (mature human) and ”abbarradamm” (Übermensch) for a stable and balanced being.

Thus far it can be realized that the difference between the characteristics of the Semitic word "enson" and the Iranic word "adamm" lies in the contamination of enson with the disease of illusion or "evil thought". So from now on this text is going to use the translation the ”human” and ”real human” for the word ”adamm” or matue human which is supposed to also refer simultaneously to the characteristics just mentioned.

One relief is that the same immature human can choose the side of "good thought" in the coin of intelligence and avoid illusions or the "evil thought" side of that coin in order to become the capable, balanced, stable and able human in assisting her/his God in the process of the evolution. Such a human becomes a "Übermensch" when she/he gets Integrated into her/his manner and becomes accustomed to choosing good thoughts and good deeds. Thus, to be Mazdeyasnic does actually lead to evolution from immature human to the Übermensch or Paarsaa.

Indoctrinations

One should be aware that the thought and feeling of all living beings who are floating in a total mentality called Farrevashi is not only from their own mind. Although, many immatured humans have not yet realized this and imagine every thought and feeling that arises in their mind originates from themselves and thus consider their effect on themselves as an inevitable truth and reaction. While apart from the conscious mind of the immatured human , her/his subconscious mind on one hand, as well as some external indoctrinations on the other hand, that affect exactly the same subconscious mind can also be the generator of thought and feeling in the mind of the immatured human.

These external indoctrinations can come from other immatured human beings as well as from the prevailing laws in the existence as a static wisdom. The indoctrination of the the static wisdom in the Existence, likewise the indoctrination of other immatured human beings, as well as the indoctrination of the own immatured human subconscious mind her-/himself, can be divided into two opposite types.

Good- and evil wisdom

All the three indoctrinations (indoctrinations of immatured human's own subconscious mind, indoctrinations of other immatured human beings on her/his subconscious mind, as well as indoctrinations of the prevailing laws of the Existence on her/his subconscious mind) that lead to the evolution and happiness of the universe and its components can be categorized under the name of a general set called "good wisdom", and all the three indoctrination of the same sources that hinder the evolution and happiness of the universe and its components can be categorized under another general set called "evil wisdom".

Just as the purpose of the good wisdom which is to neutralize illusions or evil thoughts and feelings, is opposite with the purpose of evil wisdom, which tends to stir up illusions or evil thoughts and feelings, so, in principle, the manner, behavior, and every other aspect of these two sets are contradictory to each other. For example, good wisdom sometimes presents its meaning only as an inspiration, and it is the immatured human her/himself who, if she/he realizes these inspirations, chooses them or not. But evil wisdom constantly and by force imposes its indoctrination on immaured human.

The evil wisdom in an immatured human being is the result of learing the disinformations, hatreds and illusions to the own subconscious mind which will afflict mainly the very same person her-/himself before anyone else and in the next stage are going to afflict others and the human society. It is right from here that the importance of the good thinking in relation with both immatured human her-/himself as well as with others get enlightened.

Some of these same immatured humans, with the same mental basis, trained by disinformation and evil thought, indoctrinate and impose their intentions on others. Likewise that there are also static laws existing in the universe, which in the perception of immatured human beings counts evil and destructive, the effect of which is indoctrinated in them.

Proof on intelligence within the Existence

Based on practical evidence, one can assume that there are static laws in the universe that also have an intelligent aspect. For example, how is it that the eyes of all living beings are embedded in their heads and not elsewhere in their bodies? No fossil has ever been found that its eyes have had such a state and is going to be relocated later due to the evolution.

Apart from the choice of inevitable evolutionary options, this can also indicate the existence of some kind of design alongside these options in the nature, and of course the design itself is a sign of intelligence. Now what is the source of this intelligence, so far it has been only a case for speculation, just as the realization of the existence of dark matter and dark energy in the universe is itself a product of speculation.

Mind management

In the meantime, if the king of the existence of this immatured human being, that is, her/his conscious mind, which is related to her/his will, takes the control of her/his mind, she/he will catch up with assessing the contents of own mind by contemplation and by means of her/his inner wisdom or her/his conscience and thus fulfill her/his mind management competently.

In this way she/he is protected from the tumult of the illusions of evil wisdom and as a result turns to be a real human. In the continuation of this she/he will find the ability to perceive the good wisdom's guidance, which leaves her/him with no other path than happiness and evolution towards becoming an Übermensch.

But if the conscious mind of the same person does not take over governance of her/his existence by projecting, the management of the matters will automatically fall into the hands of the secretary of her/his existence, that is, her/his subconscious mind. The subconscious mind, according to its modalities, hastily and far from wise assessing, like the behavior of a herd, automatically reacts to any content of the mind.

What unequivocally representes the enslavement of the illusions of the threefolded set of evil wisdom. That is, the enslavement of the teachings of the disinformations and the hatreds which the confused and illusioned immatured human is accustomed to learn her/his subconscious mind, or whatever such external factors indoctrinate her/his subconscious mind.

This means that the immatured human being whose intelligence was supposed to be her/his honor, due to her/his captivation in the illusions of the evil wisdom, was converted to disability and vulgarity, which can form her/his difference with animals in the wild only as the inefficiency of her/him.

In this way she/he is an unstable and out of balance being, who in constant ignorance of the contents of her/his mind is more like a displaced creature in the misguidance who instead of getting developed, illusions can create in her/him the capacity to commit crime, in other words, the same frail, helpless, sick and weak creature.

Immatured human’s mind is in serious need of management

From what has been described so far, it can be comprehended that the mind of immatured human being is in serious need of management because her/his weakness is that usually when an idea or feeling appears in her/his mind due to the lack of mind management, without examination, she/he drowns in those thoughts and feelings. In other words, the contents of her/his mind simply take her/him.

Thus, immatured human being is a creature who is captive to her/his mind, and because non examined thoughts and feelings are sometimes up to more than ninety-nine percent of cases nothing but illusions, the immatured human acquires feeble and sickly characteristics, becomes weak and incapacitated, and goes out of stability and balance.

The hippie slogan of pursuing fantasies

Contrary to the popular upbringing of people born in the 1940s (the hippie period), which promoted the release of the mind and the pursuit of fantasies which became the ideal of educated academics after that era, the difference between an immatured human being and a real human being is in that the later one has put aside the illusions and with management, has mastered her/his mind and become the king of it, and therefore no longer searches for the "fantasies" in pursuit of the lust, but instead uses "estimation" and "speculation" by wisdom for "calculation" and therefore emerges as a capable, stable, intelligent and balanced creature.

It should be noted that "freedom" is not about releasing oneself and taking advantage of fantasies and taking refuge in illusions, but this is in fact anarchy and releasing evil wisdom from the bottle. Freedom and nobility is indeed to rein and order in the mind, and therefore is the freedom from illusions and from the constant slavery of the evil wisdom or in other words freedom from slavery of the unmanaged mind.

What is the mind management

So, mind management is the monitoring of the contents of the mind, i.e. the thought and the feeling input. Then assessing of the thought and feeling entered in the mind by the inner wisdom or the conscience. Then selecting of the good thought and feeling and finally neutralizing and dismissing of the evil thought and feeling by concentration. An approach that is the complete opposite of releasing the mind and fantasizing that arises only from instantaneous lust.

Concentration, which can be called the "final technique" in the mind management, is nothing but directing the attention. Directing attention from evil thought and evil feeling to something else, such as what is seen with the eye, or in other words, concentrated look and attention to whatever in the sight. There is nothing simpler and easier than this.

Of course, to an immatured human being unfamiliar with the concentration due to the habit of neglecting the mind and any moment being strongly "influenced" by something, this subtle technique certainly seems intangible and insignificant at first. But if the same person does not neglect and practices its application with perseverance, she/he will feel its effectiveness and the more she/he dominates it, the more she/he will perceive freedom and nobility.

Practicing of the mind management from the childhood

From what has been described so far, it can be argued that training and practicing of the important matter of mind management, which is no less important than earning a living and even breathing, needs to be taught to immatured human beings even from childhood.

We really should not leave children to their own devices with vulgar liberties and the habit of fantasizing and thus allow them to grow up like weeds or immatured human beings. Depending on one's personal capacity, one as soon as possible should by learning of management of own mind and by becoming accustomed to mastering it, becomes an Übermensch.

In this way, the immatured human, from her/his own centrality, which is the shortest way to travel, gets prevented the teaching of hatred, resentment and evilness to her/his own subconscious mind and thus eliminates the roots of the evil wisdom in her/his own centrality. Until the day when the evil wisdom completely disappears from her/his society as well.

What the religion was supposed to be about

Since the very important matter of mind management had already been explained in the emergence of the religions, but the religion itself has become delusional due to lack of information and abundance of disinformation as well as religious marketing which had been established by being contaminated with socio-economic interests and sometimes spite and hatred, some immatured human beings after centuries of being chained, revolted against the religion which eventually led to the discreditation of it and thus the very first philosophy of existence of it, that is, the much important matter of mind management also fell victim to the history of the religion.

Thus, a state of ambiguity evoked neglect and indifference about the importance of the mind management. A shortcoming that left millennia of moral stagnation of immatured human beings and the lack of self-discernment and worldview which led to the intensification of the captivity in illusions. A path that leads to the regression of misguidance and the rooting of traits that the Semitic meanings of the immatured human being are of its consequences.

A solution

One solution to this shortcoming could be a rediscovery of, or even new initiatives inspired by, the principles that about two thousand five hundred years ago gave the first human rights declaration to the immatured human beings, but then get affected by historical ups and downs and untill the World War II that no extensive efforts were made to make a widespread use of humanist ideas, its real value was inconceivable to all.

The ultimate knowledge of self-discernment and worldview

This means the humanistic teachings of Mazdeyasni or the ultimate knowledge of self-discernment and worldview. Of course, it should be noted here that the teachings of Mazdeyasni do not mean the traditional Zoroastrian religion which was a Sassanid heresy. During the Sassanid period, the concepts of the Gathas of Zarathustra were distorted due to the forgetting of the Gathas language, and what the Sassanid heresy did was derived from the resources and informations available at that time, which itself was tainted with disinformations and superstitions due to their deficiency and dispersion. The result of that heresy is a religion with the characteristics of any other religion, which has gradually become more contaminated with the superstitions prevalent in later times.

Steps towards being Übermensch

Mazdeyasni's true teachings revolve more around the Gathas attributed to Zarathustra himself, the true meanings of which were rediscovered after the European Renaissance with the cooperation of some Europeans and Parsians of India and today it is mostly represented by Dr. Khosrow Khazaei (Pardis), the founder of the European Zarathustrian Foundation in Brussels. The heart of these teachings that can recognize to be related to mind management, is the Aryan idea of the six mental properties or six departments or steps towards the evolution of the universe and its components, including the evolution of the immatured human kind towards being Übermensch, known as Amsha-Spandan or Progressive Forces. These six steps are: 1) Asha 2) Vohumana 3) Kheshtara 4) Armaity 5) Ahurvataat and 6) Amarehtaat:

1) Asha means straightness and harmony. Asha is the norm of existence and refers to the harmony that exists in the behavior of phenomena in the universe. The running of this harmony is the straightness itself. One of the most fundamental of these norms is the movement of existence towards evolution to overcome shortcomings in itself. Asha also refers to the Utopia towards which the universe is heading. The first step in this path is to select and adhere to the straightness and thus to be in harmony with the norm of the existence in a forward movement.

2) Vohumana means good thought. Thought itself is the root of every action, including speech and behavior. It is the second step in advancement towards evolution. In this regard, it is necessary to give up slavery and blind pursuit of evil thoughts and illusions, by supervising and reflecting on thoughts, examining them and, if they are approved by the inner wisdom, act upon them as good thoughts. Vohumana also refers to the resonance between the good wisdom of the Existence and the reception of a person.

3) Kheshtara means domination over one's own mind or being the King of her/him self. Kheshtara is the third step towards evolution. The mind is a desk in the brain where thought and feeling meet. The first and most important rule that immatured human can attain and become an Übermensch is the domination over her/his own thought and sense, which, through concentration, directs her/his attention away from the illusions and impositions of evil wisdom and neutralizes them. Something that leads to mental freedom or nobility.

4) Armaity or tranquility, which means inner peace. This fourth step towards evolution takes place when one has taken the previous three steps with victory and reached freedom. At that time, the light of peace and tranquility emanates from the thoughts and actions of the living being.

5) Ahurvataat means attainment, maturity and evolution, which is the fifth step of evolution. In this step, immatured human has become an Übermensch or an icon of the ultimate humanity. As mentioned, in existence, including life and society, there are shortcomings and defects, the elimination of which and development is the philosophy of the human existence as a colleague of the Existence or Ahuramazda. This path begins with one's own evolution from immatured human to Übermensch and then follows with more ability and mean to carry out the philosophy of human existence as the accelerating arm of the Existence in the matter of evolution.

6) Amarehtaat or immortality and eternity is one of the characteristics of the Existence and is the final end of the previous steps. Materialistically the physic of the living beings after death gets transformed to other materials in the nature and the material itself is eternal by the nature. It just gets transformed and changes the state. When it comes to the personality of the human or the virtual appearance of her/him in the mental world, and according to the findings to date, this kind of immortality can be a good memory and thought about some celebrities in the minds of survivors.

But from a theoretical point of view, if the dark matter that is currently intangible to human is also made of some kind of thought or is the source of thought in the Existence and its Farrevashi, it can be the source of intelligence behind some aspects of the evolution of living beings and also be the source of the thoughts received by the human unconsciousness. A source that, as the unknown part of the Farrevashi, De'ena or the inner wisdom can after the death of the human being join it and hereby reach the mental immortality for the general.

The last word

In order to step on the path of Mazdeyasni it is necessary that likewise the path that the Iranianism and the humanity themselves have traveled under millennium, keep in mind the words that the Iranian intellectual "Attar Neyshabouri" has expressed:

If you are the man of the Way you need to walk through the blood,

Even worn out you need to go while overthrowned,

You put the step on the Way and do not ask anything,

The Way itself tells you how should to go
