Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Zoroastrinism is widely credited with being the first monotheistic religion. The Zoroastrian teaching that human beings are fundamentally good, although free will gives us a choice between positive actions that leads to peace and negative actions that lead to misery, are ideals we can all learn from." -His Holiness Dalai Lama "Zoroastrianism is the oldest of the revealed world religions, and it has probably had more influence on mankind, directly and indirectly, than any other single faith." -Mary Boyce, Zoroastrians: Their Religious Beliefs and Practices "Zarathushtra was the greatest of all the pioneer prophets who showed the path of freedom to men, the freedom of moral choice, freedom from blind obedience to unmeaning injunctions freedom from multiplicity of shrines which draw our worship away from the single-minded chastity of devotion." "Though surrounded by the believers in magical rites, he proclaimed in those dark days of unreason that Religion has its truth in its moral significance, not in external practices of imaginary value; that it is to uphold man in his life of good thoughts, good words, and good deeds." -Rabindranath Tagore in the Religion of Man "Believe not what you hear; believe not legends; believe not gossip; believe not what you are habituated to listening to since childhood; believe not because it comes from the lips of the elders; but apply it to your own study, examine it, ponder on it and believe only what your intelligence accepts." -Gautama Buddha in Kalmo Satta (The same philosophy as Zarathushtra proclaimed nearly six hundred to eight hundred years earlier?) "This balanced practical knowledge or as Mathew Arnold terms it, 'The quality of scientific intelligence, ' is the hallmark of the Zoroastrian religion. "For in the final analyses, the practical side of a religion is more important than philosophical ideologies. Examining it from that standpoint, the Zoroastrian religion qualifies as being the finest of all religions." -Samuel Laing in A Modern Zoroastrian "For depth of conviction, for wonderful combination of profundity and practical sense, and for purity of thought, Zarathushtra towers like a beacon among the leaders of mankind in the early days of ancient civilization" -Prof. John Moulton

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Teachings of Zoroaster And The Philosophy of the Parsi Religion Wisdom of the East The Teachings of Zoroaster and the Philosophy of the Parsi Religion By S. A. Kapadia Zoroastrianism is an ancient semi-dualistic monotheist religion of Greater Iran. Much like the Roman religion for Rome, it was adopted in differing forms as the generally inclusive overarching state religion of the Achaemenid Empire and subsequent Parthian and Sasanian (or Sassanid) empires, lending it immense prestige in ancient times. As a result, many aspects of Zoroastrianism, including leading characteristics like messianism, either influenced or were inherited by contemporary and later religious systems, including Second Temple Judaism, Gnosticism, Christianity, and Islam. Zoroastrianism was gradually marginalized or otherwise absorbed by Islam from the 7th century onwards with the decline of the Sasanian Empire. Recent estimates place the current number of Zoroastrians at around 2.6 million, most live in India and Iran. The religious philosophy of Zoroaster divided the early Iranian gods. The most important texts of the religion are those of the Avesta. In Zoroastrianism, the multifacted creator, Ahura Mazda, through the Spenta Mainyu (Good Spirit, "Bounteous Immortals") is an all-good "father" of Asha (Truth, "order, justice,") in opposition to Druj ("falsehood, deceit") and no evil originates from "him". "He" and his works are evident to humanity through the six primary Amesha Spentas and the host of other Yazatas, through whom worship of Mazda is ultimately directed. Spenta Mainyu adjoined unto "truth" oppose the Spirit's opposite, Angra Mainyu and its forces born of Akem Manah ("evil thinking"). Zoroastrianism has no major theological divisions, but it is not uniform. Modern-era influences have a significant impact on individual and local beliefs, practices, values and vocabulary, sometimes merging with tradition and in other cases displacing it.

This book was released on 2018-08-28 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kapadia's investigation of the Zoroastrian faith is important for clarifying and defining the important religious tenets native to followers of Zoroaster. Zoroastrianism is most famously known as the world's first major monotheistic religion. Zoroaster's assertion, made in his home country of Persia sometime between 1500 and 650 BC, was that there was only One God who governed over everything in the known Earth and wider universe. Over centuries, Zoroaster's creed became dominant in what is now modern-day Iran. In the ancient era, the belief in a single, omnipresent God was radical and profoundly different from the paganism which had come before it. Many people - including those in Greece and Rome - continued to worship a pantheon consisting of many Gods, corresponding to the elements of the physical world, for many centuries after Zoroaster perished.

This book was released on 2013-07 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Iranian prophet and reformer Zarathustra (Greek: Zoroaster) founded his religion in the 6th Century BC. In a series of visions he was taken up to Heaven and Ahura Mazda - creator of all that is good - charged him with enlisting Humanity in the fight against Aura Mainyu - the principle of chaos and destruction - offering Mankind a free choice between Good and Evil. It is hard to overstate the importance of Zoroastrianism. According to Professor of Iranian Studies Dr Mary Boyce: "It was the first to teach the doctrines of an individual judgment, Heaven and Hell, the future resurrection of the body, the general Last Judgment, and life everlasting for the reunited soul and body." 'The Teachings of Zoroaster' is an excellent introduction to this little-known and often misunderstood religion, giving Zoroastrianism its rightful place as the precursor of many Christian, Judaic and Islamic beliefs.

This book was released on 2007-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zoroastrianism is a religion much commented upon by a few enthusiastic Oriental scholars, and less understood by the general public. Out of the millions of believers of this faith in the by gone ages, there now remains a handful of devout followers, known as the Parsis. I have, therefore, ventured to put before my readers a brief sketch of the teachings of this divine prophet. I hope, that the strangers to the faith may find in it food for philosophic enlightenment, and the Zoroastrians themselves a subject for deeper and wider researches in the untold wealth of sublime theology and philosophy, now locked up in the monumental tomes of the ancient Avesta writings...
