Take some time off, sit quietly and find out what your role in life is and what your life requires from you. Are you giving what your life is asking for ? Try to find answer to it. And when you find it you will forget yourself and know yourself. It is very important to know yourself. We need to answer the three perennial questions which can remove all cobwebs of doubt from our mind. The questions are:-
1) Who am I?
2) Where I have come from?
3) Where I have to go to?
Contemplate on it, and ask yourselves why I am going through all this grilling, and why has this universe made for and why I am here. Why is there so much suffering, hardships, inequality? Why some are living with all luxuries while some have to earn his living the hard way and made accountable for every penny. The answers are not simple, and you are not going to get it immediately. For that we have to study Cosmo genesis. ! Now anyone can complain that you are not making it easy for us! As it is one is undergoing rat race every day going to work and here I am telling you to study Cosmo genesis which is abstract and even more difficult than obtaining answers to the above three questions. But my dear readers, if one is asking to find answers to all our problems than we have to really work for it, struggle to get answers. So one must not get disheartened if we do not understand Cosmo genesis initially but have patience, and that too lots and lots of it.
This approach of leading the reader towards the answer is different from the prevailing approach of being forced to believe what you don’t want to. Divine wisdom is within us and it is we who will answer all our questions. No one else !
Few points to ponder upon below:-
1)Those who are wobbly on faith saying that our din is sinking so let us add people from other faith and convert them or take within our fold the intermarried children should study Pre- Cosmo genesis and Cosmo genesis first and learn that there is classification of souls in nature and there are no shortcuts. Only those having no faith will talk like that, for our Prophet was knower of 7 Kaal, whereas there are those in other religion who are knowers of three Kaal and are called as “Trikaal Gyani”. Our Prophet and his disciple Jamasp can see any Kaal with the help of “Jame Jahnumah”= The Mystic wine glass or what we read in fairy tales as Crystal Ball. So our prophet is the most exalted “Seer” who can see future till the end, and our religion will last till end and we have no reasons to doubt him.
2)Again my advice to readers not to listen to rumour mongers who say that times are bad so let us reform the religion. We should first study Zarvaneh Daregokhadat Tavil and know that time is cyclic, and it has its own ups and down. History repeats and we are put in same conditions till we own up our karma and are ready to give its own dues. Today we experience same problems as faced before downfall of Persian Empire. It is we who requires to change and not the religion itself to suit our lifestyle.
3)Those who have reservation in believing the part played by Gehnamino or Angramino in plan of Cosmo genesis and doubt about the origin of evil and Omnipotence of God himself, their arguments are aimless, pointless, mere waste of time and they should study the under mentioned Monajat written by Dastur Darab Mahiyar where he says that not all mysteries can be known to us. “Ahu” who is also called as “Shaedan-Shaed”= mysterious truth hidden in darkness, the real truth about HIM can be known to us in the end only.
I will make it even easier for dear readers and explain like a story narrated. The under mentioned article written by Ervad K. N. Dastoor now known as Vada Dastoorji MeherjiRana and is taken from old Parsee Avaz. Reference:- Parsee Avaz dated 16.12.1973 Volume 2, issue 24 Page 1 onwards.

Cosmo genesis:-
To tell Cosmo genesis in form of story narration is like going back to school. But we are students till the end and we learn our lessons well, life teaches us. Time is a good teacher, and the experiences we had in life we cherish it, or try to forget it if they are unpleasant. Time helps us to forget the bad experience but lessons we do learn it anyway.
The under mentioned story will be different from other stories narrated. It is no ordinary story, but in fact is truth that exists in nature and we have to understand it with an open mind. But these truths are like faint lines and I have to shape it in form of story, which is no easy task.
Pre Cosmo genesis:-
Ahu Anamathwa or “Ahu” who is impersonal God who is unthinkable, is formless, nameless, nor of any shape who we cannot even imagine, exists, is there. He is just there, how and where he has come from we do not know. Now what kind of beginning of this story is ? Normally a story goes like once upon a time there was a king and queen living happily, but over here we have made a beginning of a story from something very abstract who does not have any name or shape. If we write that once upon a time lived Ahu and existed is a wrong conjecture. Over here time did not exist. He did not have tense any past, present, future before him or after him. He just existed and was there. To be more technically correct he cannot be described but we can just say that “He is there”, or “IT IS”. He is also called as “Shaedan Shaed”= Darkness, that is lustre of lustres but hidden in tranquil sea of Darkness, who is shoreless and motionless. This is first phase of Ahu which is motionless. In the second phase there is some motion in Ahu, on account of which that part assumes intense brilliancy or “Khshaeta”. (Editor’Note:- The word Shetan also means Dark Prince of negativity which is derivative from root of the word “Shaed”.) This brilliance in Ahu is said to have been caused by the prime most thought for the creation of Universe. As a result of this thought going on in Ahu, there rises from it an emanation caused by ejection, and is referred to in Avesta (Yasht13,14) as Khao Afrazyamna, literally meaning fountain source of eternal freshness.
Editor’s Note:- Just like in Hindu philosophy that One Supreme being is described in Sanskrit Mantra as “Om Tat Sat” meaning the “Supreme Absolute Truth” meaning “All that is”. As per Wikipedia it says:- 'Om Tat Sat' has no physical component. It is purely spiritual and beyond. It starts from the most primordial spiritual form Om and leads to the ultimate Impersonal God, the Formless One (Nirakar Braham), Non dualistic Existence, “Sat”. Wikipedia further says that “Successful grasping and revealing this mantra needs an initiation by a Sadguru (Spiritual Master) who has attained it.” Meaning it is purely subject of Sezda and only an Ustad or Guru can make us visualize it, that is if we are in his good books and he grant us the special favour.
This is not like an ordinary story, but here we are unable to describe the subject which has no name, no form and is very abstract. We go further and say that from that original supreme formless one the “Ahu” which we can say is impersonal God emanates Personal God which we will call as “Ahurmazda”. HE has name, shape and can be referred as Unique One and only one, because that Number “One” is conglomeration of all numbers in it. He is the origin from all numbers emanates and is the keeper of Numbers. All this is very abstract and has to be studied with faith and patience. So naturally a question will arise to the reader about its source of origin, meaning from where has Ahuramazda come from. “Niru” is streak originated in “Ahu Anamathva” = without any label or name, which is also called as impersonal God. Ahu is so purity perfect that the universe, in which there is both Good and evil cannot be created direct from it. “Niru” is the screen of light originating from Ahu the impersonal Godhead from which AhuraMazda has emancipated. Again Niru is abstract which is difficult to imagine.
What is narrated here in form of story is only part of truths that exists in the multi-dimensional Universe and not merely time pass. Many a times the narrator of the story skips many details of the story and put forth the main points to simplify it. Such is the case over here and many a details we will have to assume it in good faith for it is far beyond the understanding of our three dimensional mind. The Journey undertaken by Ruvan is a long one, and its end will only come at the fag end of far off event known as Frashogard. It will be then that the actual Cosmic Drama will be fully understood by us. Till that time we have to assume it in good faith and move ahead. Consequently, even the high immortal existences like Yazata or Angels cannot see Ahu through Niru, and we mortals do not stand any chance in understanding “Ahu”. This fact has been stated by Dastur Darab Mahiyar in his Monajat; 15,29 as under:-
“Na binad Kashaz soorato, rango, fam,
Ne neez een fereshteh sioseh tamam.”
Translation:- Not only human beings, but none of all the 33 Fereshteh(angels) can see HIS face or shape or Colour.
Ordinarily “Niru” means strength or power. But technically it means that Niru as applied to “Anamathvao alam”, the pre-Cosmo genesis world, or the unthinkable world. Niru is mentioned in Pazand Afrin Ardafravash as Aoj, Zoar, Niru, Tagi. Niru which is the super most divine potentially that separates “Khao Afrajyamna” from Ahu the light of lights. To be more precise Niru is the screen of light between Ahu and “Khao Afrajyamna”= The Island of Inexhaustible and Evergreen Consciousness.
Now there is exchange of thoughts and question answer session going on. Niru asks as to how Ahuramazda who has form, shape, name emancipated from him ?? In reply to his question a Cosmic sound or Naad replies that O “Khao Afrajyamna”, you are the source of this Universe and there is some lacking in you which is presently in dormant stage. To alchemize it Ahuramazda or personal God needs to be emancipated from you. Thus Khao Afrajyamna himself becomes Ahuramazda. The “Naad” or Cosmic vibration that answers this question is known as Naad of “Ahunavar” or Cosmic blueprint plan of the Universe in the making.
Reference:- Manual of Khshnoom by PN Tavadia Page 95-96.
Now we proceed further that this “Khao Afrajyamna Ahuramazda” is composed of three Triads. Each Triad consists of a group of three which are technically described as under:-
First Triad:- 1) Athra 2) Niru Khadat 3) Zarvan Yavaecha Yavaetat
Second Triad:- 1) Fravashi 2) Ahunavairya 3) Stoat Yasna
Third Triad:- 1) Keherp 2) Ukhda Vacha (Fountain source head of Origin of Mathematic). 3) Aeva Ahakhshta (Power of Numbers)
Today’s science has concluded that anything can be described in Mathematical equation and numbers is the root of Mathematics.
Totally there are nine branches as we can see from above three Triads. Its description can be found from Nikiz in details and we won’t touch any of them. But we will refer to “Stoat Yasna” briefly which is important for our understanding of Cosmo genesis. The fault or the lacking for which this Universe is going to be made is concentrated in this Stoat Yasna.
Let us use our imagination to understand it. Let us Imagine a Mountain has three Rivers flowing from it. Each river has got three branches of Rivulets coming from it. These rivers flow very silently without any murmur or sound. Suddenly in Stoat Yasna which is one of the three branches of the triad there is some activity in calm flow of water.
Just as ripples are formed when a stone is dropped in very calm waters, similarly it is noticed that a small island is formed at the centre of disturbance in water. This island if carefully observed half of it shines with golden light, whereas the other half of the island is mixture of golden light which is a bit tainted with darkness or black colour. The island which is shining with golden brightness is called as “Baodangh”= Divine Wisdom, and the other half island which is mixture of golden bright colour with tinge of black streak entwined in it is called as “Ruvan”. The Ruvan which is Semi Luminous and mixture of light and darkness carries within it, and the fault which will require rectification later. That defect or fault is known as “Druj”. The machinery of nature represented by “Khao Afrajyamana Ahuramazda” will apply its resources and corrective measures will be taken later to correct this fault known as Druj entwined within Ruvan. This is manifestation and the “Origin of Evil”. The reason for Cosmo genesis and the purpose of making this Universe is to alchemize Ruvan and remove the perennial defect of “Druj” that has crept in it. The other name of “Druj or Dravao” that can fit in our sense is known as the Primeval Ego due to Primeval ignorance.
From the above mentioned three triads “Khao Afrajyamana Ahuramazda” manifests 7 Kaal as mentioned in previous part 3 of this series. This is the basis of “Origin of time” and “Zarvane Akarneh” will be running these Kaals. Let us take these 7 Kaal one by one. The first Kaal starts now.
Cosmogenesis
The first Zarvane Akarne – The Past of the Past Tense
In the first kaal that begins now Alchemy will start on the semi Luminous Orb which is mixture of golden light and dross and is known as Ruvan. The blessings of Manthra Spenta that emanates from Khao Afrajyamna descends on this semi luminous orb known as Ruvan. As a result of this blessings three fourth or 75 % of Ruvan gets separated and is reformed without any Dravao in it. This pure orb is now known as “Manthra-Spenta Ahura Ruvan”.
Further alchemy occurs on the remaining one fourth part or 25 % of Ruvan that has not refomed by applying law of decimalization called as “Daseme-Stutam” in Avesta. This original non reformed one fourth part of Ruvan is further divided into ten parts. Out of which nine parts gets reformed. Out of these nine parts that have alchemized and reformed Yazatas, Ameshaspands, Mino, Dae manifest and form Yazatic group. This occurs in first Zarvane Akarne or first Kaal.
This Cosmic Drama that unfolds in first Kaal occurs in place known as Minoi world that will be made up of two heavens (Asman) and are known as 1) Ahunavar Asman 2) Anagra Raocha Asman. The “Origin of Space” starts from here.
The nineth Asman of Ahunavar will be dwelling place of “Ahura”. So what exactly is “Ahu-ra” ? and from where did it come from ?. It is nothing else but “Ahu” who has pounded (Ra) the dross from main tainted Ruvan by using alchemical process, separated the dross and he himself dwelled in alchemized part . The dwelling place of Ahura is 9th Minoi Heaven.
(Reference:- Nikhiz 2 Page 269 kh). The dwelling place of Yazatas will be the Eight Asman known as “Anagra-Raocha”= Countless shining lights. The Divine attraction of Yazatas towards Ahura, Khao Afrajyaman and Ahu forms “Asere Roshni” currents that will be used later on by Sarosh Yazad and his 1000 channels for the making of further Cosmic world that will follow later on. Editor’s Note:- For wherever Truth is there, beauty follows. For example a Beautiful Sunrise will remind us about eternal truths hidden in bowels of Nature. But not necessarily the other way, for beauty of a fairer sex can be bewitching and is also an attraction, which can lead one astray to abscess of passions also known as “Ishq e Mizazi”, which is only personification of falsehood, and is not complete Truth, but only half the truth. So “Asere Roshni” is the effect of Yazats’ unconditional “Utuiti” “Zarzadaiti”= implicit obedience due to which there is divine attraction also called as “Ïshq e Hakiki” towards “Ahura”. So obviously there is difference between two types of “Ishq”. Now these undercurrents of Asere Roshni will act as Benedictions and henceforth be useful in running the Universe.
As mentioned above out of 10 parts 9 parts were reformed and Yazats, Ameshaspands, Mino, Dae out of it. But the remnant one part that refuses to reform has to be alchemized and needs to be taken care of now.
After the machinery of nature sets to work and alchemize on this original “one part”, half of it gets reformed. This emancipated one-half was divided into innumerable stars which dot the above mentioned two divine Asmans of Minoi world and commenced working in harmony with Yazatas, Ameshaspands. This emancipated one-half is also known as 72 dwelling place of many stars ( 72 var-na Stur) .The other half was also eager to attain holy union, which will be taken care of in second Kaal. The second Kaal starts from here now.
……… Second Kaal to be continued in Part 5
