Zurvan and the Trikartar

Zurvan

Zurvan is time and space, the arena in which we live. The Great Zurvan is unbounded and shared by us all, whereas we also each have our own limited Zurvan or lifetime.

Trikartar

The Trikartar are three 'doers'. They are three ways seeing the cause of activity in Zurvan. They are named: Tuxeta, Vaius and Auramazda:

Tuketa

Tuketa is the ultimate 'Doer'. Tuketa is the instrument of Zurvan and carries out His will which are the laws of cause and effect. Tuketa is the agent of God in the sense of the agent of Reality. Tuketa is the lord of Tuka or Happenings. Everything that happens is produced by Tuketa.

Vaius

Vaius is the 'Blower' , the cause of motion and change. Vaius arises from the self-willed movement and actions of living beings.

Auramazda

Auramazda is the Wise Lord. Auramazda is the righteous lord or right-regulating power who produces right-order or Arta. Mazda is the Wise One who is sensitive to the truth of what exists and has knowledge as to the interconnection of things.

Auramazda is the wise power that creates and sustains the ordered living world. Everything that comes into being is produced by the wise creative power which is Auramazda.
