Asha and Monism

Asha is the combination of the two. Therefore meaningless to translate to English.
In a MONIST universe this makes sense, because what is right and what is true is and SHOULD BE interconnected. This only becomes a problem in dualism.
Which again strengthens the idea that Zarathushtra and early Zoroastrians in general were all monists. They sought that which was true in order to find that which was right as the two are interconnected in a world which is ONE and not fundamentally divided.

Right as in ethics, true as in science.

Dear Rory and Dino,

Is Asha "What is Right" in Science or is it "What is Right" in a Moral and Legal way?
The two are not the same!?

Dear Dino,

Yes, I believe you are correct.

And it applies to all that is - whether in the heavens or down here on Earth. That's why there can't be any hierarchical relationship between the physical world as we know it and those fancy astral amusement parks.

However because the Gathas are written in a dead language they will retain their original meaning to a large extent because a dead language is no longer evolving. I don't believe anyone is trying to elevate the word Asha above all else. What led you to that idea? As it is such a crucial part of the religion does it not deserve special attention? I agree that the meaning has to change or rather that the meaning/understandi ng of "Asha" should progress and become more precise in keeping with the principles of the Amesha Spentas.

Words take their meanings from social uses. Times change, and words change with them, so to speak. Radically elevating the word "Asha" above all else and beyond the conceivable doesn't get us anywhere in this context. All we can do is throwing the concepts we live with at the word "Asha" and see what fits historically and linguistically.

ARMY OF LOVERS’ CLONES are as French résistance. French communist Michael romances with positive lad from positive French Gestapo. Local stripper Sarah is busy worker. Female Polizei is in jealousy. Unhonest Owner of Milk Factory is only one negative person. There is no blood and horrors in the story that is the result of mobilistic philosophy. Do you want Whole Clip script, Alex? And what about the Romanovs and The communists who live in complete peace or BWO, VACCUUM and ARMY OF LOVERS members as heroes of fancy tales?
