ABSTRACT
The article examines the enigmatic world of Thracian mythology and mysteries, immersing itself in hidden messages long shrouded in the mists of time. In this mystical world, the image of Orpheus shines with a magical enigma, concealing unsolved mysteries and hinting at its exceptional role in world history and the spiritual evolution of humanity. According to the Orphics, human nature is a combination of a divine soul and a mortal body, and through rituals and spiritual purification, immortality can be achieved. The purpose of the article is to analyze Orphism as an ancient mystical teaching and explore how it symbolizes the eternal struggle between light and darkness, Good and evil, and what its role is in the context of ancient culture, but also in our modern world. Orphism represents a profound synthesis of philosophy and religion, offering a model for understanding human existence and the contradictory nature of man. The philosophy of Good and evil, illuminated by Orphism, remains relevant today, expressing the eternal aspiration for moral and spiritual elevation.
