hello all,
I am here to ask if anyone knows whether the concept of temptation into sin is a part of zoroastrianism... I know in the vendidad he himself is tempted by ahriman, but i think it is a special occasion... I am wondering, is that a part of the everyday believer's life, (not some prophet or messiah)? I know ahriman wouldn't be expected to appear to anyone in person, but I am asking, would he appear by proxy through a person, is that temptation into sin a part of this religion, like in judaism the jews are tempted by the surrounding peoples into idolatry, or christianity they are fighting against sin, satan, who tempts through the proxy of earthly people, wealth and rulers, an adulteress, etc., ??
