Ahura Mazda: The Consciousness Beyond God
By eFireTemple Not a God of Wrath—But of Light When people hear the word “God,” they often imagine a throne, a beard, and a list of punishments. But Ahura Mazda , the central divine presence in Zoroastrianism, is not a deity in the Abrahamic sense . He is not a ruler. He is not jealous. He is not tribal. Ahura Mazda is the source of light-consciousness itself —the very mind behind the cosmic order called Asha . “Mazda” means wisdom . “Ahura” means Lord of Being .
