McClintock Biblical Encyclopedia: Daedae Taengri


Subjects in this Topic:

in Thibetan mythology, was. a famous race of spirits, existing previous to the visible world, but who became limited through the creation of the world, without their being subject to the laws of death. As there were many who had reached this limit but still did not die dissatisfied with their doubtful destiny, they left their thrones and flitted about in the heavens until they came to the kingdom of Assurian spirits. The latter were continually in disunity, and the arrival of the Daedae Taengri strengthened one party to such an extent that a war resulted which lasted many millions of years. Daeghelm is believed to have been abbot of Bardney. He signed the act of the Council of Clovesho, October 12, 803.
