Yushamin

In Mandaeism, Yushamin (Classical Mandaic: ࡉࡅࡔࡀࡌࡉࡍ, Modern Mandaic pronunciation:), also known as the Second Life, is the primal uthra (angel or guardian) and a subservient emanation who was created by the Mandaean God 'The Great Life' (Hayyi Rabbi or 'The First Life'), hence beginning the creation of the material world. Yushamin is the father of Abatur. Jorunn J. Buckley identifies Yushamin as "both a Lightworld utra beyond reproach and the prototype of a priest who has made mistakes in ritual."
