Abstract

In this research, the journey of mowbed Kird-Ä«r to heaven will be investigated. Kird-Ä«r was a great Sassanid priest who has mentioned the description of his ascension in two of his inscriptions. These two inscriptions are Naqsh-i Rostam (KNRm) and Sar Mashhad (KSM). According to the findings of this research, after examining all the events that happened in the ascension of Kird-Ä«r, it was determined that this ascension was based on Mani’s religion. As it can be seen from the existing Manichaean texts, this ascension describes the events that happen to the soul of a righteous person after death in the Manichaean religion. According to the available documents, Kird-Ä«r was the leader of Mazda-worshipper religion. He was from the royal family and from the Greater Khorasan, Wakhan region.
