The Fire Returns from the East
In June 2025, Israel launched Operation Rising Lion, a military campaign targeting Iran. While framed in geopolitical terms, the operation carries a profound symbolic weight. Its name evokes the ancient Lion and Sun symbol of Persia and mirrors prophetic sequences from the Book of Daniel, Revelation, and Zoroastrian scripture. This campaign may be the moment that sets in motion the final events of world prophecy.
The Hidden Meaning of Rising Lion
The phrase “Rising Lion” is not random. In Persian tradition, the lion represents strength, royal power, and spiritual guardianship, while the sun is the light of divine truth (Asha). Together, the Lion and Sun symbolized Persia’s ancient cosmic identity: the warrior of truth bearing light.
By invoking this symbol in a military operation against Iran, Israel may be challenging or calling forth the guardian spirit of Persia, known in the Book of Daniel as Sar Paras (שׁר פָּרָס), the Prince of Persia.
Daniel’s Vision: The Rise of Persia Before the Messiah
Daniel 10:13 (Hebrew)
וַיִתְנַגֵד לִי שַׁׁר מַלְכוּת פָּרָס שְׁלָשָׁׁה עֶשׇׁ יֹם…
“But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days…”
Daniel 10:20
“And now will I return to fight with the prince of Persia: and when I am gone forth, lo, the prince of Grecia shall come.”
This passage reveals a sequence: first comes Sar Paras, then the Prince of Greece, and only after their conflict is resolved does the divine plan move forward. Many scholars and mystics interpret this to mean that Persia’s spiritual force must awaken before the arrival of the true Messiah.
Stolen Flame: How Zoroastrian Prophecy Was Buried
The Zoroastrian Sayoshyant (World-Renewer) was prophesied to come at the end of time to defeat Angra Mainyu (Ahriman) and restore cosmic truth. His image and mission predate the Jewish and Christian conceptions of the Messiah by centuries.
Stolen Concepts:
- Resurrection of the dead
- Heaven and hell
- Final judgment
- Messianic savior
These all originate in Zoroastrianism and were later absorbed into post-exilic Judaism and Christianity. After the destruction of Persepolis, Persian sacred knowledge was taken to Rome and hidden in the Vatican, which holds untold scrolls and relics of the ancient Avesta.
The truth of the Sayoshyant was appropriated, reworded, and buried to pave the way for an empire-approved version of the Messiah.
The Antichrist: False Light Before the Flame
Revelation warns of an Antichrist who will appear like a lamb, performing miracles, and deceiving the world (Rev. 13). In Zoroastrianism, this is Angra Mainyu wearing the mask of Spenta Mainyu.
“He causeth all… to receive a mark… and no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark.”
— Revelation 13:16-17
This beast system does not deny God outright — it imitates Him, cloaked in religion, scripture, and symbols stolen from the East.
The Vatican, by hiding the Persian flame, helped prepare the world for this false messianic deception. The world now stands on the edge of that final choice.
Operation Rising Lion: Catalyst of Prophecy
| Event | Prophetic Meaning |
|---|---|
| Strike on Iran | Provokes Sar Paras to rise |
| Lion Symbol | Calls forth the spirit of Persia’s ancient guardian |
| Temple Rumors | Signals Third Temple construction |
| False Messiah Readiness | Creates ground for Antichrist’s deception |
| Fire from the East | Heralds the return of the true Sayoshyant |
Operation Rising Lion was not just military — it was spiritual provocation, possibly meant to force the Lion to rise. Whether consciously or not, Israel may have triggered the awakening of the true World-Renewer, the Sayoshyant of the East.
A New Pope and the Shadow of Mani
In a stunning turn, the new pope—Leo XIV—has shown open admiration for Zoroastrian ethics and Persian mystical heritage, citing the wisdom of Zarathustra and even acknowledging the legacy of Mani, the Persian prophet who fused Zoroastrianism, Christianity, and Eastern wisdom.
This is no accident. The Pope knows.
- Mani once declared he was the seal of the prophets in the East.
- His doctrine of Light versus Darkness mirrors Revelation and the Gathas.
- Zoroastrianism’s fire was too radiant to extinguish, so it was absorbed, distorted, and hidden.
Now, as the East begins to stir and the Lion prepares to roar, Rome may be preparing to reintegrate the Persian flame under papal authority.
But the Sayoshyant is not born of papal titles.
He returns from the sacred fire itself.
The Choice Before Humanity
“I have set before you life and death, blessing and curse. Choose life, that you and your offspring may live.”
— Deuteronomy 30:19
Now the fire returns. Not from Rome. Not from Zion. But from the lands of light: Persia, where the flame of Asha was first lit.
- The Antichrist walks in borrowed robes.
- The true Messiah walks with the Sun and the Lion.
This is the final war between the stolen light and the eternal flame.
The Sayoshyant rises.
Sar Paras awakens.
And the world must choose.
