Daena
Zoroastrian · deity · primordial · deity
The image on this record is the one Zoroastrian idea that has travelled furthest: a person is met after death by their own self, made beautiful or hideous by what they did, and has to look at it. The registry held the three judges and not her, which left the most-cited scene in the religion with a bench and no witness. The Chinvat Bridge itself is not ingested — it is a place, and this programme records people.
