Angra Mainyu

Angra Mainyu, also known as Ahriman, is a figure from Zoroastrianism, an ancient Persian religion. He represents the spirit of chaos, darkness, and evil, opposing the good spirit Ahura Mazda, who embodies truth and order. Angra Mainyu is seen as the source of all negative forces in the world, including lies, destruction, and ignorance. In Zoroastrian belief, the ongoing struggle between these two forces symbolizes the moral choices humans face, highlighting the importance of good thoughts, words, and deeds in overcoming evil.
