http://www.nadir.org/nadir/initiativ/kurdi-almani-kassel/kultur/yeziden/yezidism

Extractions: 4 March 2002 Foreword It is well known that Yezidism, or Zoroastrianism, being one of the oldest religions of the Middle East, has greatly influenced the history of mankind. The truth, always evident from old and new books alike, is that this religious culture was alive and dominant there as early as in the years between 1000 and 600 BC. By analysing the elements of Zoroastrianism, which could be described as experiencing Renaissance, we come to the conclusion that it represents a deep interrelation between mankind and nature. The spiritual and physical conditions of Zoroaster himself, as well as his role as the leader of the religious movement, demonstrate that he was a philosopher rather than a prophet. Doubtless, the Renaissance of Zoroastrianism, as it has often been the case with other cultural movements, has largely been based on social structure and apparent shortcomings, characteristic of the regional reality. It might propose answers to the questions of interrelationships between Man and Eternity, not only for the Kurdish people, who once were a powerful factor in the Middle East, but also to other peoples who accepted Zoroastrianism as a basic religious system. Since developed in Kurdistan and since being the principal religion of the whole Kurdish nation, it is only logical that all the religious literature, prayers and teaching were conducted in the Kurdish language. As a particular and important case, the two Holy Books "Zend Avesta and Meshef Roj" are composed in Kurdish.

Extractions: Back to World Religions From: http://members.ozemail.com.au/~zarathus/deen33f.html Since some time, certain individuals have been regaling the community in India and abroad with colourful stories about "millions" of Zoroastrians in Kurdistan or Tajlklstan. In the Bombay Samachar of March 21, 1993, Dr. Pallan R. lchaporia had stated, "Recent research has revealed that even among those who called themselves 'Izedis/Yezedi', the faith is a mixture of extremely corrupt form of Zoroastrianism (can hardly be recognized as the Zoroastrian religion) and the other alien religious beliefs... if some insist on believing that there are Zoroastrians in the Kurdish nation, they are welcome to live in the dream world." Supporting lchaporia's views, the Editor had stated, "All in all, it is advisable for the Zoroastrians to concentrate upon their own community in India, U.K. and U.S.A." But who are the Yazidis (also spelt Yezidi, Azidi or lzdi)'?

Extractions: A little while ago Mr. Philip Kreyenbrock published his book: "Yezidism. Its background, observances and texual tradition." (The Edwin Mellon Press, USA, 1995). It contains two enormous parts: Part one gives an exclusive accound about the Yezidi historical and religious background. It provides special informations concerning the beliefs, doctrines, costoms and holy places. From his point of view as a scientist for studies in religion he compiled a very useful working book. On the base of a special support and help by Pir Xidir Sileman, the author provides a rare overview more religious than a research in the Yezidi society and its changes in modern times. As for the Yezidis themselves he made a very important contribution to collect the religious texts and to edit it as well as to spread it about all Yezidi communities. At least it is an important native language document which can support studies in the Kurdish language. Finally the book by Pir Xidir is a need and must for Yezidis as well as for European scholars and scientists.

http://www.cogsci.ed.ac.uk/~siamakr/Kurdish/KURDICA/2000/FEB/bible.html

Extractions: 550 videos of Bible mostly in Kirmanji Kurdish (the Kurdish language of Diyarbakir) are available free. 500 of these videos are in NTSC (the US video system) and about 50 in PAL (the European/Asian system). About 20 videos may also be available in Sorani/S. Kurdi, Armenian Kurdish, and Behdini/Bandinani as well. The majority are the Dayirbakir dialect in the North American video system. The video is a translatation from the Biblical Book of Luke which was filmed in 1979 and dubbed by speakers from Dayirbakir. If you think it would prove to be of cultural benefit to any members of your Kurdish network, I would be willing to mail the videos out free to those of your members that would like them. It would only cost me $1.13 each within the USA, only a little more to Europe (as I'll mail those from Canada), and the exercise would help alleviate my friends warehousing problem at least. No cost at all to your network or the video recipients. All I'd need would be addresses, languages, and numbers (if for some reason more than one video should go to a single address) - I don't really even need any names I suppose. So, let me know if my offer is of any use to you. Feel free to spread it around, keeping in mind there are about 500 in NTSC and perhaps 50? in PAL available.

Extractions: I mentioned the "yezuddi" a couple of posts ago sorry, fingers were typing too fast for my brain, that should have been "yezidi." The religion is "yezidism," and some basic info can be found at http://www.yezidi.org Yezidism seems like a form of Zoroastrianism, modified by later Xian and Moslem thought, tho' it may greatly predate Zoroaster. It's a dualistic, monotheistic religion, still practiced, primarily by a minority of Kurds (about 800,000). Historically, they've frequently been persecuted as "devil-worshippers" by Xian and Moslems. As far as I can tell, their primary deity, Ta'usi-Melek, is cognate with Lucifer. They've got some really interesting mythology... `Io, by Dr. Pir Mamou Othman The Yezidi-religion is one the oldest controversial religions of the world. The fact, that Sheik-Adi Ibin Mustafa (ca. 1162 after Christ) introduced a radical change in the Yezidi-religion hang like a dark curtain in front of the Yezidi past. It is unanimously held, that this religion existed before Sheik-Adi, but under other names as well as definitely with other Customs and Traditions. An article "a focus on the Philosophy of the Yezidi-religion" presents the philosophical disputes in the Yezidi-religion, viz. Ta'usi-Melek as God's representative on the earth and not as the Evil One", as other religions state, Ta'usi as the aesthetic Phenomenon, interpreted as such and firmly held only by the Yezidis.

http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Thebes/2153/yezidi.html

Extractions: Yezidi religion and society Yezidis are a small group. They mainly live in North Iraq. Some of them live in Turkey, Armenia, Yemen and Iran. About thirty thousand of them imigrated to Germany, because of bad conditions in Turkey. Despite all troubles they have encountered in their past, they have succeeded to survive. Their survival both in terms of religion and society among mountains has the basic struggle for peace and humanity. The Middle East region has had many religions and sects. One of them is Yezidism and it has many different as well as common aspects with the others, Islam, Christianity etc. Their survival for centuries and their interesting religion have attracted many Westerners attention. The most stressed idea in these Westerners writings and recent researches on them is that Yezidis are a religious Kurdish group, which has survived for thousand years in the nature and has an original religion that has many aspects emerging from the natural sources. Before focusing on the survival of Yezidis and the aspects of Yezidi Religion and Philosophy, some general characters which are essential to determine in the beginning of such study should be introduced. First of all, Yezidis belong to Kurdish race and regarded as Kurds who keep their original and ancient religion. They speak northern dialect of Kurdish (Kurmanji). Except some Arabic poems, their all oral prayers, hymns(qewl), sacred songs and whatever they recite in their special days are in Kurmanji. All Scriptures and texts that they have are also in Kurdish.

Extractions: Part 2: Scriptures of the Yezidi While the Yezidis do not, strictly speaking, possess a "holy book" like the Christians or Muslims, they do draw inspiration from various scriptures and historical writings that frequently seem to convey a revelatory character. Most important of these for our purposes is a brief collection of hymns to Melek Taus that is said to be authored by Sheik Adi and known as the Ilwa or Unveiling of Truth. It may be presumed that this collection was at one time in the distant past much longer, parts having been lost over time, or perhaps hidden from the profane and then lost during the many Yezidi flights from persecution. There is also the Black Book or Meshaf i Resh , said to have been written by a descentent of Sheik Adi, namely Hasan ibn Adi. In the beginning The Invisible One brought forth from its ow n precious soul a white pearl And It created a bird upon whose back It placed the pearl, and there He
