Mandi (Mandaeism)

Mandi is an ancient religion influenced by Christianity and Judaism. It was founded by a man named Mandi, who lived in what is now Iraq or Iran. It encourages kindness and love for others, and believes in a heavenly father and a messiah. People who practice Mandi pray to God for help and guidance, and also have special festivals throughout the year. They also read from their holy scriptures, such as the Ginza Rba, which was written by Mandi.
