Kaira

Kaira (Turkish: Kayra; Altai: Кайра, Ottoman Turkish: كايرا) is the supreme Deity, king of the gods, and ruler of the universe in Turkic and Altai mythologies. He is the god of creation and the creator of heaven, earth, and everything. In Turkic beliefs, Kaira is described as possessing androgynous qualities and is often called both Father and Mother.

Kaira sits on the 17th floor of the heavens and determines the fate of the universe. His role is synonymous with the older sky god Tengri, whose relationship with Kaira varies as either father and son, manifestation, or outright synonymous. He created the other gods and existed before the creation of the universe. He planted a tree with nine boughes.[1] This tree connects the sky and earth, and nine human races are descended from the tree. His sons are Ulgan, Kyzaghan and Mergen.[2]

In ancient Turkic beliefs, Kaira is a white goose that flies over an endless water. Ak Ana (Holy Mother) appears and tells him to create. Kaira is also described as omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent; He is the most powerful Deity and reigns above all other gods.

The word (Kaira) means gracious or benevolent.
