Bakshishum Postmanell, (895, ?) was a farmer in Baghdad.
Bakshishum believed in Zoroastrianism.
He lived a life of absolute poverty. Eating or sleeping in a safe place was a constant struggle. He was considered as belonging to the lowest caste. However, he made some friends among it. He had only a basic knowledge that summed up to a few oral stories from childhood. He was force of nature, and people saw in their body and beauty the incarnation of a god. He was soft-spirited, rejecting any responsability.
