BIBLE VERSES

ARIZURA, NECK OF

A symbol of desire for the objects of sense, or the lust of the eyes. "The first place (whereon is most sorrow) is the neck of Arizura wherein hosts of friends rush forth from the burrow of the Drug."- Vendidad, III.

“The "first place" in the lower nature producing suffering and sorrow, is the lust of the eyes-desire. The fiends are the sense objects which allure. The burrow of the Drug" signifies the same as the "bottomless pit of the Beast," that is, the sense nature, or desire nature, that is never satisfied.
