2407 ENT_ZOR_VOHU_MANAH aligned_with ENT_GNO_NOUS medium Vohu Manah ("Good Mind") is the first Amesha Spenta, embodying the divine intelligence and good thought of Ahura Mazda (Yasna 28.2; 29.6; 30.3: "I will now proclaim for those who will hear the things the understanding person should remember: the praises and prayer of the Good Mind to the Lord"). The Gnostic Nous ("Mind" or "Intelligence") is the primary divine intellectual emanation in Valentinian and Sethian systems (Apocryphon of John, NHC II,1; Gospel of Truth, NHC I,3). The alignment is grounded in the shared semantic core — divine Mind/Intelligence as the first emanation of supreme divinity — and in the broader scholarly recognition that Zoroastrian divine hypostases (the Amesha Spentas as divine attributes of Ahura Mazda) influenced the Gnostic aeon-emanation model via Platonic mediation.
