Notes
"The concept of 'asha' had ethical implications also, in that it was through that it should likewise govern human conduct. Truth, honesty, loyalty, and courage were felt to be proper for mankind. Virtue, that is, belonged to the natural order, and vice was its betrayal."[2]
An Ashavan is somebody who is in alignment. A Drugvant is someone who is not.[3]
