Iaso - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In Helena Petrovna Blavatsky's The Esoteric Character of the Gospels, the author says, "Iaso, the daughter of Asclepios, was the goddess of healing, under whose patronage were all the candidates for initiation in her father's temple, the novices or chrestoi, called 'the sons of Iaso'." |
 | | The fourth portion of the altar is to Aphrodite and Panacea, and further to Iaso, Hygeia, and Athena Healer. |
 | | Although Iaso is from greek iasthai, "to heal", it is likely that her name is related or was influenced by Isis, the Hellenized form of the Egyptian goddess Aset, who was, among other attributes, a goddess of healing. |
