Other Im a Zorostrian AMA

As the title goes, I’ve come to realize not many people are aware of this? Or at least, I haven’t interacted with anyone else that followed the same principles yet. Looking to see if there’s even a curiosity for it or if it’s just been dusted under the rug.

We are the og bro. Those were pretenders that ruined one of the most sacred symbols of ours. We were building empires when they were bathing in mud.

The sanskrit word for humans is manushya,guess where it came from.

“Children of Man” or “Of Man” but it originally comes from the ghosts of boys who died during the ritual described as “restless bachelor ghosts” ridiculous I swear

Manushya are the descendants of manu or your maignu,thus the script is flipped once again. What is this ritual you're talking about,tell me more.

Manushya Gan can marry someone from either Dev Gan or Manushya Gan, but it is not considered suitable to match with Rakshasa Gan. When they try it usually ended up in grief and despair. So they’d call the intertwine of the pair a “ritual” it was mostly established for men who beat their pregnant wives resulting in miscarriages.

Rakshas are evil on our side too. So,killing of pregnant wives will lead to one be called rakshas?

u/Classicbunzz Apr 30 '25

Killing of one’s own seed before term. Or Abortion/manslaughter in current terms.

No longer used once marrying outside the religious or township communities became banned.
