BIBLE VERSES

NERYOSANG, THE ANGEL

A symbol of the intellect which arouses love of ideals.

“Then Srosh and Neryosang the angel go to Keresasp (the Saman); three times they utter a cry, and the fourth time Saman rises up with triumph, and goes to meet Azi Dahak. And Saman does not listen to his words, and the triumphant club strikes him on the head and kills him." - Bahman Yasht, III. 60, 61. S. B. of E.

The Divine Will (Srosh), acting through the intellect (Neryosang), approaches the Love-element (Keresasp) and arouses it completely in the evolving soul. Then the Divine force (Saman) Love goes forth on the path of devotion to the Ideal, undeterred by the temptations of sense, and with the higher emotions (club) overcomes illusion and selfishness.
