(China Mithra rosary products are carefully selected by designers and professionally checked, and passed the professional appraisal by China National Jewelry Appraisal Agency) Mithra is an extremely ancient god belonging to the Aryan religious system (some scholars call it the primitive Indo-Iranian religious system). It is impossible to examine Mithraism in prehistoric times before Aryan division. The oldest existing record about Mithra is a Hittite inscription belonging to the 4th century BC/KLOC-0. It is a peace treaty between Hittites and Mitannis, located in the southeast of Fanhu, Turkey today. The inscription mentions Mithra (in the form of Mithra) as the main god of Mitanni. Mitanni is a country with a special background. Most of its residents are Huli, while the ruling class is Aryan. It is generally believed that the ruling group of Sangu is of the same origin as the Aryans in India. It is mentioned in the inscription that Mithra is one of the five gods worshipped by Mitannis, while the other four gods obviously correspond to varuna, Indra and Double stable boy in the Vedas (Double stable boy is a twin god).
Early Indo-Iranian documents still retain the original features of Mitra, and the descriptions of Mitra-Midoro in Rigveda and Avesta are very similar. In fact, willian jackson, a scholar, gave an example. The records of Rigveda and Avesta are almost identical: [1].
Mithra ode in the Astor part of Avisto;
tam amavan tam yazatam
suram damohu savishtam
Mitram Yazai Zao Salab
The Vedic hymn to Mithra:
tam amavan tam yajatam
suram dhamasu savistham
mitram yajai ho trabhyah
This is the mighty Mitra, the most powerful of all creatures, and I want to worship it with wine. [2])
According to documents, ancient Indians usually worshipped Mitra in association with another great god, Varuna. These two gods both belong to the ancient god Adito (meaning "the god without hindrance", which is the collective name of the descendants of Adito and Kaya Bo), and their duties overlap in some aspects. Vedas often mention "Varuna-Midoro" and sometimes regard them as gods, but rarely mention Midoro alone. There is only one poem praising Midoro in Rigveda, and other poems dedicated to Midoro are included in the poem praising Varuna. This pair of idol gods (Varuna-Midoro) also existed in the myth system of ancient Iranians. The god in Avisto, corresponding to Varuna, and forming a dual god with Mitra, is Apam Napat (water god).
Before Zoroaster's Reformation, Mithraism was widely popular among Iranians. Mithra is considered to be one of the only three gods in Avisto who can be called Ahura (the other two are ahura mazda and Appam Napat). Zoroaster's religious philosophy is based on making Ahur ·Maz the highest god, so Mithra's position has been greatly degraded, and there is no mention of Mithra in the oldest part of Avesta, "Gatha". However, the Zoroastrian priests later restored their respect for Mithras for some reason. There are many hymns about Mithra in the Avesta, and the "Gester" part appeared later (compared with Kata, which is thought to be written by Zoroaster himself). Mithraism in Iranian culture was accepted by Greek and Roman culture and formed a new belief: Mithraism. Mithraism is a mysterious religion and a strange mixture of eastern and western cultures. Mithra first came into the eyes of the Greeks during the Hellenistic period after Alexander the Great's Crusade. The Greeks equated him with Helius, the sun god in Greek mythology (it is a Greek tradition to connect the gods of other religious systems with their own gods). About the 2nd century ago, Mithra-Helius became Mithra, and the later God of Mithraism was probably completed in Pagama in Asia Minor. At least when cornelius Pompeii was fighting in the East, the Romans knew about the existence of this sect. This novel belief was introduced to Rome in the previous 1 century and expanded rapidly after Rome entered the imperial era. Emperor Commodus and soldiers in the crisis of the 3rd century favored Mithraism very much, because it had the nature of "samurai class religion". In fact, the worship of Mithras was widely popular in the Roman army and became a common belief of soldiers, and extended to Britain and the edge of the Rhine.
The form of Mithraism is difficult to rebuild because of the high mystery of its worship ceremony (comparable to the so-called secret ceremony in ancient Greece) and the high exclusiveness of the believers (only recommended men are accepted to join the church). To be sure, its Mitra is different from the Mitra of primitive Indo-Iranian religion and Zoroastrianism. Mithra's image in Mithraism is "Black Cow", which has never appeared in any Iranian cultural system. Perhaps Mithra is the protector of the god of war or soldiers here. Some scholars believe that Mithraism was strongly influenced by Babylonian astrology. [4]
The worship ceremony of Mithraism is held in natural or artificially excavated caves, which are called sacred places and are said to imitate Mithras' birth environment. There are many temples under the existing large buildings. There are still many remains of such temples in Italy and Germany.
The relationship between Mithraism and Christianity is a topic of interest to many scholars. At the peak of Mithra's belief in the 3rd century A.D., the two religions competed for followers extensively. The relationship between Christmas and Mithra is the strangest, because this festival (65438+ February 25th according to the current Gregorian calendar) was originally the birthday of Mithra of the Roman Empire. The New Testament and some of the oldest Gnostic documents do not record the date of birth of Jesus. The date of Christmas was actually determined by the church in the 2nd century. St Augustine of Hippo pointed out the unpleasant relationship between Christmas and pagan festivals. Many modern researchers (such as james frazer, the author of The Golden Branch) believe that the early Christian church chose this date in order to attract pagans better. In short, in the struggle between Christianity and Mithraism, Mithraism finally failed, but it cannot be considered that it left no influence.
