MiscellaneousThe TycheThe Tyche is the Agent of God as Reality. The Tyche is the Doer and produces the world from moment to moment. (NB Some may consider that Yahweh, the god of the Old Testament is a kind of Tyche).RunaRuna or runes are important concepts that are useful in our thinking.Thalia is Flourishing. Artista (or Arta Thalica) is the (Ideal) Righteous Order or Righteous Progression of the world - a process where the actions of each fit harmoniously with the actions of others and the pre-existing nature of things. We believe it is the key requirement for a world which is congenial to life. Dreg is deviation from the Good. Dolus is deception, trickery, fakery. Magtas is mightiness, potency, capability. Chresis is usefulness or goodness in one's actions. NB Please see the Zartian Agathism pages for further lists of runes SarokresisSarokresis or sometimes Sarochresis is Usefulness achieved through the process of listening and responding to need (Kreia) and motivated by the desire to see the object of need to flourish. It is what Zorochristians seek to attain in their work to become good and effective Chrestors or Saviours and change the world for the better.The concept of Sarokresis is sometimes expanded into seven elements: 1. Kresis (or sometimes Chresis) - Usefulness; 2. Saritas - Listening/Harkening (paying attention and responding); 3. Humanitas - Good Mindedness; 4. Rectitas - Righteousness; 5. Magtas - Mightiness; 6. Gnosis - Deep Knowledge; 7. Societas - Alliance; FrashokeretiFrashokereti is the 'Fresh-Making' or 'renewal of the world'. A related concept is 'Rectification' or the putting of the world into good order.Good World OrderWe seek to support the Good World Order across the planet earth which is our home. We imagine a Good World Emperor providing good management in those areas which can only be managed taking a world-wide approach. We imagine that there will be a plural political arrangement with many different polities or states across the earth each organizing their internal affairs according to their own wishes and customs with the minimum interference from the emperor or other political powers.Cyrusson, the future Saviour-KingWe look forward to the arrival of 'Cyrusson' or the 'Son of King Cyrus' to be the future saviour king and emperor of the world.Cyrusson is a spiritual and cultural descendant of the historical King Cyrus the Great. Kara ZartianaThe Kara Zartiana, (literally 'Zoroastrian Army') is the Zartian Corpus or outward-facing body of Zartians seeking to work for the good of the world. We can do this in particular by developing Sarokresis in ourselves and our neighbours.Spada PantalicaThe Spada Pantalica or 'Army for the Common Flourishing' is the world-wide movement of those pushing for the Good World Order. It includes the Kara Zartiana who we imagine might be in the vanguard or in a leading role in the Spada. However all people of good will and sound judgement who are working usefully to support the common flourishing are a part of the Spada.The slogan Eunoia, Eudaena, Eusebia means Good Thinking, Good Moral Vision, Good Devotion. An alternative might be Eunoia, Eusebia, Eukratia (where Eukratia is 'Good Rule' or 'good use of strength') |
