The supreme deity, the principle of good, creator of the

Ahriman, the spirit of evil, both being sprung from Eternity,
or, according to another version, Ahriman being the offspring
of a moment of doubt on the part of Ormazd. Ormazd is
attended by angels and archangels. He is represented as a
bearded man inclosed in a winged circle, a conception
probably derived from the Assyrian representations of Ashur.
