Yep , and it is 'bad mind / good mind ' . Angra and Spenta mainyu in Zoroastrianism The root of the word anger .... via 'Old Norse ' { 'angra' to vex some one or thing } Although this is in contention as a latter development and the older belief was that these where deified projections of the mind - as above ; " Persian duality has the god of Light ashura mazda (zoom zoom) and his evil brother angra mainyu. " YET ; " AHRIMAN (Avestan: Angra/Aŋra Mainyu; not attested in Old Persian), demon, God’s adversary in the Zoroastrian religion. He seems to have been an original conception of Zoroaster’s; ... In the Gathas Angra Mainyu is the direct opposite of Spənta Mainyu; both spirits are essentially actors in the primeval choice, a great drama dominating the life of man and the destiny of the world. ... This feature, the drama of the choice, is missing in the cosmogonies in the Pahlavi books, where Ahriman serves as the negative counterpart, not of the other spirit, but of God, ... " ( and here, 'sprit' does not mean a type of lesser god , but qualities of mind " ) " ... Other variations in the concept of Ahriman were due to heresy, or to error ** . At one end of the spectrum it is said that, since Ohrmazd is, then Ahriman is not, i.e., has no material existence. At the other end, on the level of folktale, there is the story of Ahriman transformed into a horse and ridden for thirty years by Taxma Urupi. " The earlier form was a lot 'deeper' and related more to 'mental cultivation ' rather than the latter (although considered earlier ) forms of Gods and demons and angels and devils . ** Australian Aboriginal teachings are the same , the one's most get are very simple , childlike myths , kindergarten stuff ... for the kids . The it goes on through layers of complex stuff that the outer form symbolises .... at all depends on " differences in the level of culture or intelligence " . * A brilliant, positive, constructive, and beneficent spirit that seeks wisdom is called a spenta mainyu. A gloomy, negative, destructive, and harmful spirit that wishes to remain ignorant is called an angra mainyu. These are two potentials of the human 'mind set' ( which is great ! as we know what actions and practices lead to one or the other , so we can manipulate our mind set ... a lot easier than we can manipulate 'Gods' ) . In Zoroastrianism creation was caused by a divine thought .

Well, if you lot are going to talk about Kar3n and pie .... it should be cherry pie -
I like this . It reminds me of the old initiation systems where a person learnt how to rule their life via emulation of the central character and or principles in the story enacted of the ' dramatic ritual ' of the ceremony. This person, in Freemasonry was Hiram Abiff , stories about him and his actions and tribulations are enacted with the candidate taking his part . ( Sort of like a 'passion play' ) In the O.T.O. first series of initiation, the inspiration is ' Saladin ' . https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saladin#Recognition_and_legacy Even here in indigenous Australia, initiations or resultant 'walkabout ' follows the discovery journeys and trial and tribulations of 'ancestor - heroes . Hercules is a perfect example of this . It is actually a handbook of what NOT to do and how to fail an initiation, he actually did so bad that they had to create a new level of 'lesser mysteries' and make that an initiation level, just so he could pass . Because of his father ... they 'lowered the bar' . " The myths of Hercules show the world as it is: everyone has monsters they need to conquer and seemingly impossible tasks they are faced with and tragedies that seem too hard to bear. As it was in ancient Greece when people would sit and listen to the tales of the hero, so it has been ever since and, even in the modern day, comic books, graphic novels, books, television shows, and Hollywood films featuring Hercules continue to be popular. He remains a hero anyone can relate to, precisely because his life was so far from perfect and his character was less than ideal. When faced with some difficult situation in life, one can take comfort in the thought that, if Hercules could endure his sufferings, one can survive one's own. " - encounter a problem ? Smash it with your club , fight the spectre of death , kill monsters (instead if making them allies or totems ), mess with the environment, change the course of rivers ..... This is not the way of negotiating through a shamanic initiation ! Its more like .... HULK WILL SMASH ! Odysseus ..... there is a better emulation . What a fantastic and explorative Shaman ! Does he kill the Sirens , to get rid of the danger , does he fall into their trap and come to ruin , does he avoid the island ? No he commands his men to stop their ears and tie him to the mast so he can experience it .... but not lead others into danger . Magnificent !

I had a friend that had a donkey that used to say good morning by sticking his head in through the kitchen window and braying at the top of his voice - which is VERY loud . I didnt know that, until he did it ... when I was sleeping on the lounge . What a way to wake up ! "D Here, I talk to the wildlife, I only got feral pets . Its been quiet lately - winter . About the only critters that are more active than usual are the ravens - they have been very busy lately .

Took a little holiday ( from the big holiday ) in the swish car . Its been running like a dream . I am nearly as far down the coast south wards ( before it turns west ) . Toady I will move on to Eden . At the moment I am in Tathra . Small coastal village , got a beach cabin and now I am sitting up in bed watching the sun about to come up over the ocean ... from bed ! Ahhhh . The sound of waves all night . The trip to Sydney was as usual, I done that many times, but then I got through and went along my old motorcycle route ; 'Natio' and 'down the coast road' ' ; VROOOM ! ... go Rover ... No, not one of these ... a ' 75' ; I noticed something a bit funny about the town I arrived in yesterday ; the caravan park and accommodation is very full for the 'off season' . parts f the town seem to be 'missing'. even in the main street - a lot of empty ground with construction fences. Then I went to the 'Bowlo' (lawn bowls club) for dinner and there was picture with ; 'Visit Tahra and help us get on our feet again after the fire ." Fire ? So when I got home I looked it up on internet . Now I remember ! Last year a huge bush fire isolated the town and drove the residents on to the beach . https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2018_Tathra_bushfire Anyway . Off to Eden .... where Aboriginal people used to use '' trained' killer whales to bring them food ( using a dance on the shore, with a fire behind them to show their silhouette to the whale, the dance was supposed to depict an injured and/or old hunter that was having difficulty hunting and feeding himself . The whales would see it and drive fish to the shore . ) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Killer_whales_of_Eden,_New_South_Wales

Thats British Engineering ! Unfortunately, the new REs are Indian engineering ... or I should say Indian ingineering . Issues NEW owners have - that is , a new bike from the factory ; the fork sleeve alignment and travel, - rubs mudguard or scratches on tube (mudguard not placed in locating recess properly ) the Auto de-comp spring tension, - noisy tap tap tap - weak return spring the air filter box design, - lets in dust and water - a killer on an engine - last year we lost a MF 154-4 (tractor - expensive ! ) due to dust and stuff getting past air filters. the swing arm design, handling issues, pulls to the side, or chain tensioner isnt placed at equal positions on either side he oval box locking mechanism, - locks great ! .... permanently . the break peddle at cornering, - scrapes on road and pushes up on your foot and releases back break ! the main stand angle, - wears, bike sits too far forward on stand and is hard to get off stand missing lembda, - cheap EI , rough running, mixture probs Vibes at high er speed - needs new cam plate inside (an Aussie invention ! ) - seems not that complicated to fit . Bad finish , early rust - paint job incomplete (near joints ) clutch burns out - from ‘backfire starting ? fuel leaks - o ring from lines and sensors battery acid burns on side covers ( cheap battery, no overflow hose, acid spills out when loading and unloading new bikes side boxes dont open fuel consumption is LOW ( as odometer inaccurate ) Most experts agree many are not engineering problems but finish and assembly problems . Its interesting to read Indians experience - there a service includes 'wash and clean' , apparently they always do that, but not the work you have asked for them to do Another guy complained that he had to wait in the customer service centre lounge . "Only two hours Sir . " " Oh good, I will go and attend to some business and be back then . " " No Sir you must have misunderstood me .... you MUST wait in the customer service lounge while we service your motorcycle. " "What ? ! " " if you do not wait, we will not service it, and if you leave we will stop servicing it ! " Whaaaat ? ! They have some guy checking on the room ? " Sanjeev ! Customer for bike job number 18 has just left the waiting area ! Stop work on number 18 and wheel it out into the street ! " Crazy Indians ! .... and I am thinking of buying a bike made by them ! ?????? Been raining constant for 3 days - not good for test drive - eased off a little this morning so I am off down the coast to the dealers < fingers crossed >
