'''{{Style S-Small capitals|Mitra}}'''. An ancient Iranian deity, a sun‐ god, as evidenced by his being lion‐headed. The name exists also in India and means a form of the sun. The Persian Mithra, he who drove out of heaven Ahriman, is a kind of Messiah who is expected to return as the judge of men, and is a sin‐bearing god who atones for the iniquities of mankind. As such, however, he is directly connected with the highest Occultism, the tenets of which were expounded during the Mithraic Mysteries which thus bore his name. | '''{{Style S-Small capitals|Mitra}}'''.
