Dahaka is a figure from ancient Persian mythology, often depicted as a monstrous creature or a dragon. He is known for his destructive nature and is associated with chaos and evil. In some stories, Dahaka is said to have three heads and six eyes, symbolizing his immense power and malevolence. He is often considered a representation of darkness and is opposed to the forces of good. In Zoroastrianism, Dahaka is linked to the concept of Ahriman, the spirit of evil. He embodies the struggle between good and evil, a central theme in Zoroastrian beliefs. The tales of Dahaka highlight the importance of righteousness and the ongoing battle against malevolent forces in the world.
