‘Zarathustra, who had been a trained professional priest, radically reformed the pantheon of the ancient Iranians. Through his insight he was able to see the philosophical basis of the gods and goddesses of the Indo-European pantheon. The main insight of his vision was that the only true and absolute godhead is Ahura Mazda – Lord Wisdom, or “pure focused consciousness.” This is an entity, which is pure light, unity, and goodness, beyond other forms of duality. This being is devoid of any anthropomorphic character, and the name itself suggests androgyny, Ahura is masculine, while Mazda is feminine.’
