What is Manichaeism about?

This document discusses the origins and history of Manichaeism, a religion founded in 3rd century Persia by Mani. It was originally monotheistic but incorporated ancient Persian deities over time. Manichaeism competed with Zoroastrianism, Buddhism, and Christianity in the Sasanian Empire. Although persecuted, Manichaeism maintained a strong presence and spread missions from North Africa to China. The document refutes claims that Catharism was derived from Manichaeism, noting their doctrines differed.
