The
following letter was received in September 2003 by Her Holiness
Alexandra Hehpsehboah from a Zoroastrian living in the United States, who
had listened to her radio show, had followed her prophecies and
witnessed her peace efforts.
"You
know I am a Zoroastrian and in our religious text there is a
prophecy about a coming prophet (which I believe is you) as
this:
:30
'And at that time, O Zartosht the Spitaman! all men will become
deceivers, great friends will become of different parties, and
respect, affection, hope, and regard for the soul will depart from
the world; the affection of the father will depart from the son;
and that of the brother from his brother; the son-in-law will
become a beggar (kidyak or kasik) from his father-in-law, and the
mother will be parted and estranged from the daughter.
31.
'When it is the end of thy tenth hundredth winter, O Zartosht the
Spitaman! the sun is more unseen and more spotted (vasangtar); the
year, month, and day are shorter; and the earth of Spandarmad is
more barren, and fuller of highwaymen; and the crop will not yield
the seed, so that of the crop of the corn-fields in ten cases
seven will diminish and three will increase, and that which
increases does not become ripe; and vegetation, trees, and shrubs
will diminish; when one shall take a hundred, ninety will diminish
and ten will increase, and that which increases gives no pleasure
and flavor.
32.
'And men are born smaller, and their skill and strength are less;
they become more deceitful and more given to vile practices; they
have no gratitude and respect for bread and salt, and they have no
affection for their country....
38.
'Honorable wealth will all proceed to those of perverted faith (kevid-keshan);
it comes to the transgressors, and virtuous doers of good works,
from the families of noblemen even unto the wise men (mog-mardan),
remain running about uncovered...
41.
'And in that tenth hundredth winter, which is the end of thy
millennium, O righteous Zartosht! all mankind will bind torn hair,
disregarding revelation, so that a willingly-disposed cloud and a
righteous wind are not able to produce rain in its proper time and
season.
42.
And a dark cloud makes the whole sky night, and the hot wind and
the cold wind arrive, and bring along fruit and seed of corn, even
the rain in its proper time; and it does not rain, and that which
rains also rains more noxious creatures than water; and the water
of rivers and springs will diminish, and there will be no
increase...
55.
So Ohrmazd spoke to Zartosht the Spitaman thus: ' Inquire fully
and learn by heart thoroughly! teach it by Zand, Pazand, and
explanation! tell it to the priests and disciples who speak forth
in the world, and those who are not aware of the hundred winters,
tell it then to them! so that, for the hope of a future existence,
and for the preservation of their own souls, they may remove the
trouble, evil, and oppression which those of other religions cause
in the ceremonies of religion (dino yesnan).
56.
And, moreover, I tell thee this, O Zartosht the Spitaman! that
whoever, in that time, appeals for the body is not able to save
the soul, for he is as it were fat, and his soul is hungry and
lean in hell; whoever appeals for the soul, his body is hungry and
lean through the misery of the world, and destitute, and his soul
is fat in heaven....
.....For
in their evil reigns, within the countries of Iran, there were not
seven1 towns which were desolate as they will be when it is the
end of thy millennium....
.....Zartosht
inquired of Ohrmazd thus: 'O Ohrmazd, propitious spirit! creator
of the material world, righteous one! whence do they restore this
good religion of the Mazdayasnians?
....'O
Zartosht the Spitaman! after the ill-omened sovereignty of those
of the race of Wrath there is a fiend, Shedaspih of the Kilisyakih,
from the countries of Salman;' Mah- vand-dad said that these
people are Ruman (Arumayak), and Roshan said that they have red
weapons, red banners, and red hats (kulah).
4.
'It is when a symptom of them appears, as they advance, O Zartosht
the Spitaman! the sun and the dark show signs, and the moon
becomes manifest of various colors; earthquakes (bum-guzhand),
too, become numerous, and the wind comes more violently; in the
world want, distress, and discomfort come more into view; and
Mercury and Jupiter advance the sovereignty for the vile, and they
are in hundreds and thousands and myriads.
5.
They have the red banner of the fiend Shedaspih of Kilisyakih, and
they hasten much their progress to these countries of Iran which
I, Ohrmazd, created, up to the bank of the Arvand,' some have said
the Frat river, 'unto the Greeks (Yunan) dwelling in Asuristan;'
they are Greeks by strict reckoning, and their Assyrian dwelling
is this, that they slay the Assyrian people therein, and thus they
will destroy their abode, some have said the lurking-holes (grestak)
of the demons.
'They
turn back those of the race of Wrath in hundreds and thousands and
myriads; and the banners, standards, and an innumerable army of
those demons with disheveled hair will come to these countries of
Iran which I, Ohrmazd, created.
7.
And the army of the invader is an extending enemy of the Turk and
even the Karm, be it with banners aloft when he shall set up a
banner, be it through the excessive multitude which will remain --
like hairs in the mane of a horse -- in the countries of Iran
which I, Ohrmazd, created.
When these things happen in the world the next prophet
will come to exist. I believe that the time has come. I believe
you are the promised prophet and I am ready to help you in any way
that I can."
