ENIGORIO AND ENIGOHATGEA
Symbols of the Higher principle and the lower
principle as conflicting opposites on the mental plane.
"Twin brothers, who in the mythology of the Iroquois Indians
symbolised the good and evil principles, the names signifying Good
Mind' and 'Bad Mind' respectively. The good creative offices in the
building up of the cosmic scheme of Enigorio were neutralised by his
evil brother, who wandered over the earth transforming the
beneficent creations of Enigorio into the things that have proved
harmful to mankind.". Non-classical Mythology, p. 62.
This legend does not show alteration under Christian influence, but
is paralleled exactly in the Zoroastrian scriptures. In the first
part of the Vendidad there is an account of the creation of many
lands" by Spenta-mainyu (Good Spirit) followed by the creation of
deleterious objects by Angra-mainyu (Evil Spirit). This refers to
the duality and relativity which are inseparable from manifestation.
The relatively good always implies the relatively bad and each good
quality has its opposite.
