This group exists to revive Zurvanism for the modern world. Neo-Zurvanism has elements of both dualism and monism in its system. In this school, Spenta Mainyu refers to the life-giving and nurturing power, which is best captured in high-quality children's artwork. Angra Mainyu, in contrast, is adversarial, catabolic, and thanatotic in its fundamental disposition, and it is best seen through horror artwork. However, they are both twins of the supreme Zurvan, which is metaphorical for Infinite time. Contrasting the nature of spenta and angra mainyu, through art and in relation to the supreme principle Zurvan, can help one attain liberation. Both Spenta and Angra are in some sense ‘seeking’ and moving asymptotically towards the Absolute or Undifferentiated, albeit from diverging directions.

What distinguishes Neo-Zurvanism from other nondualist systems is that its "skillful means" (upāya) towards tacit apprehension of the timeless and unfathomable Zurvan, which is similar to One Vehicle (Ekayāna) or Buddha-nature (tathāgatagarbha) of Zen, involves placing more emphasis on artistic expression. By analyzing the limited and commingling natures of both spenta and angra artworks, including their liminal space, one will naturally move towards the inconceivable, immanent, and infinite Zurvan, which is beyond both Ahura Mazda and Ahriman. This will lead to an immovable equanimity and centeredness in Zurvan that involves clinging to neither Ahura Mazda or Ahriman, which is true immortality. The first Neo-Zurvanite scripture is available to read from those who join the group.

Please read the first scripture before judging the intellectual depth of this movement.

I'm intrigued anon, are you saying you practice non-duality by contrasting evil (or at least evil-looking) art with beauty?
