Zarathushtrian Religion, Philosophy and History 

...and further, it's amazing how many philosophies of Zoroaster, as perceived by Prof Irani, run parallel to the principles required for strong self esteem as outlined by Nathaniel Branden, in his seminal book '6 Pillars of Self Esteem' which was a result of decades of research on the topic in modern times...

That is a fascinating story. You are quite right. I can't blame the Parsis for placing such gravitas on the notion of preserving their culture forasmuch as it has been tragically subjugated since the time of Cyrus. I hope that even if they will not know it, all people will one day be Zoroastrians at heart and work towards Asha - good thoughts, good words and good deeds regardless of colour, creed or religion.

Feroze Engineer What do most Parsees think of Iran, do they regard it still as a holy motherland? And does Zoroastrianism have anything in common with native Indian religions, such as Hinduism?

Falamu445 I'll answer your second question first. The Gathas (original zoroastrian scripture) have a LOT in common with the Vedas (original hindu scripture). I understand scholars have puzzled over this but there isn't a conclusive answer as to why. Scripture aside, Zoroastrians have adopted (and in some cases adapted) many traditions, rituals, cultural practises, etc that exist in India since they migrated. Most parsee zoroastrians would (and quite rightly so in my opinion) consider India as their motherland, most would sadly never have been to Iran at all even though they are aware that is where we originally came from. For me personally, where ever i rest my head is the place I call home - but i would still love to go and see Iran at some point.

Hey Ferose, Sorry for misspellings form my pad is corrupted and I can not see what I write nore correct my mistakes . Oke, that being said I would like you to read/look into the book OAHSPE, whoch is discribing all fromer profets that walked yhe earth and how they where reased from birth, like po, brama, abraham and others. It talks about the birth of man some 24000years ago and shows most of the heavely creatures and gods, demi gods, demons, evil spirits and the Great Spirit ...all man has lived through or worked through.

If I was able to aquired what I desired only once, it would've been to have access to yor notes, writtings, sound bits. The writer has spend some fifty years of living to eliminate ego. And the writer understands these. Simple code to save paradise. The Good. - Nader Meh, Toronto

Amazing thank you ❤

What you've identified is The Golden Thread of Truth that is sewn in the fabric of every belief system.

@@hellomynameisname4270 that truth is a tool nothing less nothing more 😂

@@liamgray6017 I would research evolution all the way up to a couple thousand years ago. A tool, yes. A tool that made us what we are, not just any tool.

Amazing indeed, and I probably felt the same. Perhaps Zoroastrianism is not widely known today but what matters most is the philosophy and principles behind it. And you can dig deeper into the history of the people and their civilization which gave birth to Zarathustra and his teachings, if you like.

Doesn't this demonstrate that YOUR specific religious taste may not be the right one? All of these religions cannot be THE right one. Interesting in many ways including that the very real possibility that either there are many different gods or none.

Introduction 17 But this was not the only people to whom the Lord had given his laws and his gospel and had blessed with the Priesthood that would allow the children of men to establish churches and places of worship among them. 18 And I have explained unto you that the Lord is no respecter of persons; and that one nation is just as important to him as another. And he sendeth forth his prophets among all his children, even unto as many as will hear his words. The Birth Of Zarathustra 42 And it came to pass that there lived a man and his wife in the eastern part of the wilderness that surrounded the great land of Mesopotamia. And his name was Pouruchathpa, and the name of his wife was Dughdova. 43 And Dughdova was a chosen daughter of God who had the spirit of the Lord with her since the days of her youth. And in the days of her youth she dreamed a dream, in which she saw a great camel descend upon the home of her father. And the camel was golden in color and spoke in her tongue, calling her by name and saying unto her: 44 Behold, truly thou art blessed above all those of the earth. For thou shalt bring forth a son and he shall bring about much righteousness in the land of thy fathers. And in thy heart thou shalt know the things that thou should teach unto him; but the things of thy fathers, even those things which thou hast been taught, teach them not unto him, for he hath been chosen by the great Ahura Mazda, who is thy Lord. 45 And it came to pass that as she grew in stature she kept these things in her heart. And she married Pouruchathpa and did not divulge these things unto him. 46 And Pouruchathpa was an honorable man, who had much business among the merchants of his town. And when Dughdova was ready to deliver her child, she called Pouruchathpa unto her and recounted unto him the dream that she had as a youth. 47 And there were midwives there who heard the things that she told unto her husband. And they immediately spread what they had heard throughout the city. And the priests, who were those that had been appointed over the people to keep them in subjection to the gods that they worshipped, even these did come into the house and mocked Dughdova for the things which she had said concerning her child. 48 And because of the things that they said unto her, she became exceedingly sorrowful and cried that her husband would come in unto her. And when Pouruchathpa had heard all that the priests had said to his wife, he was filled with anger, and he cursed them and their gods and threw them out of the house. 49 And the priests commanded the people of the city to avoid the house of Pouruchathpa and his wife, and their child; for they were condemned from that time forth by the gods of the people. And because of the condemnation of the priests, the midwives did leave the side of Dughdova and would not return again unto her. 50 And Pouruchathpa shut the door of the house and went in unto his wife. And Dughdova cried in pain and delivered the child. And as the child was born, the sun shone down upon the house. And its reflection caused the people of the city to become terrified at the sight, and they ran in among the priests and told them of the great light that shined down upon the house. 51 And the priests surrounded the house and condemned it before their gods. And they commanded the people to cast Pouruchathpa and his wife out from among them. And before an hour had passed after the birth of their son, Pouruchathpa and Dughdova were forced out into the wilderness by the people. 52 And it came to pass that the Lord was with them, and they found shelter and sustenance in the wilderness. And they came upon the house of a man who had lost his sight many years ago from the effects of the sun. And this man was poor and had little effects, but those that he did have, he offered to Pouruchathpa and Dughdova and their son. 53 And they called their son Zarathustra, which being interpreted means, golden camel, after the vision that his mother had in her youth. And it came to pass that Zarathustra spent the days of his childhood in the house of the blind man. But as the days went on according to the days of Zarathustra, even unto the days of his youth, the blind man began to receive his sight. And he looked upon Zarathustra and thanked the gods for that which had been done unto him. 54 But Dughdova rebuked the man and explained unto him, instructing him that he would not teach her son concerning the gods of her fathers, which gods were of the priests that had cast them out of the city. Becoming a prophet of God to the Great Persian Empire 55 And it came to pass that Zarathustra grew, and he was wrought upon by the ministrations of the spirit world and taught those things that he would one day teach unto the people. And when the days of the pinnacle of his manhood was reached, the Lord sent an angel unto Zarathustra and gave unto him the laws of the gospel and taught unto him all those things that had been corrupted among the children of men. 56 And the Lord called Zarathustra to be a prophet and preach the things that he had learned from the angel, and also those things that he had learned from the ministrations of the Spirit in his youth. And he was taught the plan of God, who was called Ahura Mazda according to the language and the customs of the people. 57 And he also knew of the plan of Lucifer, who was called Ahriman, according to the words of the people. 58 And now, I, Moroni, would that ye should realize, even those who have received these things, that the Father hath allowed his prophets to teach His gospel unto all of His children in their own tongue and according to their customs and traditions, as I have previously explained it unto you in this record. 59 And Ahura Mazda shall be known in the world as the God of Zarathustra, a prophet of God. But this Ahura Mazda is the Father of whom I have spoken of in this record. Thus can ye see that the names which the children of men give unto Him are of little importance to our Father. 60 For the words of Zarathustra were given in their purity to the children of men in the beginning. And he become a prophet to his people. And there were many that followed after his teachings. 61 And it came to pass that he taught the gospel to one of the great kings who was among the people. And this king accepted the teachings of Zarathustra and caused them to be taught throughout the land. Nevertheless, the King would not allow those teachings of Zarathustra to be taught, which would usurp his authority among the people, or in other words, the things that would take away from his own divinity. 62 And Zarathustra taught in the court of the King for many years. But after a time, he went back among the people and began to preach the gospel unto them. And because of his teachings to the King, the people, who were of the nation of the great Persian Empire, which had risen to power after the Babylonian Empire, were ruled with justice.

From what ever human made religion you belong to. (They all made by humans) You will always worship nature. We are a part of it. Time for spring cleaning of this rat race. Get your EGOISM, your RACISM, your PREJUDICE out of your mind! It is hard, but guarantee you will feel and do much better than you did and felt previously. That's the way it's supposed to be!

Well done, we need a transcript of this interview! Thank you.

Welcome my friend. I am an Iranian Zoroastrian from india. Happy to have you as a part of our faith 😊.

I didn’t know there were Zoroastrians in Afghanistan. Are there many? Is there discrimination against them?

There are still Afghan Zoroastrians left? Or you're just a convert?

Italy stole its culture from Greeks, Etruscans , Minoans, Egyptians etc. and the Iranians did the same ( mesopatamia and egypt both are ithe root of Persian religion) . ur smug egotistical remarks are paper thin. and u do not understand the actual history. imagine that.

Sad face mix race

@@skyjuiceification which Egyptian or Mesopotamian religion practiced anything remotely like Zarathustra's monotheism teachings? Zarathustra according to many sources lived 6000 BC, if correct then which religion predates him? (Maybe even older)

Yes it makes a lot of sense, I believe I am too.

@@chendaforest "The world is a moral reality, your way of life. Act with good thought, good words and good deeds, and you have accepted the doctrine of Zarathustra. Contrary to the tribal notion this decision to accept this vision, this way of life, is a purely individual matter. As Zarathustra says, 'I talk to each of you, listen with care and careful thought, and make a judgment each individual by individual, man and woman." If you immerse yourself in these wonderful thoughts, you will possibly see enlightenment and be able to make a decision as an individual, man and woman. "But each one is asked to make the decision and each one is asked to bear the responsibility for that decision." I wish no more, I need nothing further to live a full life without the expense of others' existence.

Some of the scriptures have parallels in the teachings of the Vedas in India

DAVID LOCKWOOD That's not surprising given the geographic proximity of Iran to India, the trade routes between ancient Iran and ancient India, and the fact that Avestan and Sanskrit are both Proto-Indo-Eurpoean languages that were spoken by PIE peoples.

DAVID LOCKWOOD Absolutely, they are descended from the same Proto-Indo-European tribes originating in what is now the Ukraine and Southern Russia.

"Predates all other major religions" =not quite true. Just pointing out. Am I wrong? Isn't vedic/Shaivite religion (now known as Hinduism or sanatan dharma) much older? Not that it matters to me. Just trying to remain factual.

Nevertheless, the King would not allow those teachings of Zarathustra to be taught, which would usurp his authority among the people, or in other words, the things that would take away from his own divinity. 62 And Zarathustra taught in the court of the King for many years.

"the acknowledgment of man's constant predilection to get it wrong, and the redemptive mission of the Creator" Precious words you say. Science is still not getting it! But they will try to replace God by attacking all religions! They want to be God.

Massoud G Introduction 17 But this was not the only people to whom the Lord had given his laws and his gospel and had blessed with the Priesthood that would allow the children of men to establish churches and places of worship among them. 18 And I have explained unto you that the Lord is no respecter of persons; and that one nation is just as important to him as another. And he sendeth forth his prophets among all his children, even unto as many as will hear his words. The Birth Of Zarathustra 42 And it came to pass that there lived a man and his wife in the eastern part of the wilderness that surrounded the great land of Mesopotamia. And his name was Pouruchathpa, and the name of his wife was Dughdova. 43 And Dughdova was a chosen daughter of God who had the spirit of the Lord with her since the days of her youth. And in the days of her youth she dreamed a dream, in which she saw a great camel descend upon the home of her father. And the camel was golden in color and spoke in her tongue, calling her by name and saying unto her: 44 Behold, truly thou art blessed above all those of the earth. For thou shalt bring forth a son and he shall bring about much righteousness in the land of thy fathers. And in thy heart thou shalt know the things that thou should teach unto him; but the things of thy fathers, even those things which thou hast been taught, teach them not unto him, for he hath been chosen by the great Ahura Mazda, who is thy Lord. 45 And it came to pass that as she grew in stature she kept these things in her heart. And she married Pouruchathpa and did not divulge these things unto him. 46 And Pouruchathpa was an honorable man, who had much business among the merchants of his town. And when Dughdova was ready to deliver her child, she called Pouruchathpa unto her and recounted unto him the dream that she had as a youth. 47 And there were midwives there who heard the things that she told unto her husband. And they immediately spread what they had heard throughout the city. And the priests, who were those that had been appointed over the people to keep them in subjection to the gods that they worshipped, even these did come into the house and mocked Dughdova for the things which she had said concerning her child. 48 And because of the things that they said unto her, she became exceedingly sorrowful and cried that her husband would come in unto her. And when Pouruchathpa had heard all that the priests had said to his wife, he was filled with anger, and he cursed them and their gods and threw them out of the house. 49 And the priests commanded the people of the city to avoid the house of Pouruchathpa and his wife, and their child; for they were condemned from that time forth by the gods of the people. And because of the condemnation of the priests, the midwives did leave the side of Dughdova and would not return again unto her. 50 And Pouruchathpa shut the door of the house and went in unto his wife. And Dughdova cried in pain and delivered the child. And as the child was born, the sun shone down upon the house. And its reflection caused the people of the city to become terrified at the sight, and they ran in among the priests and told them of the great light that shined down upon the house. 51 And the priests surrounded the house and condemned it before their gods. And they commanded the people to cast Pouruchathpa and his wife out from among them. And before an hour had passed after the birth of their son, Pouruchathpa and Dughdova were forced out into the wilderness by the people. 52 And it came to pass that the Lord was with them, and they found shelter and sustenance in the wilderness. And they came upon the house of a man who had lost his sight many years ago from the effects of the sun. And this man was poor and had little effects, but those that he did have, he offered to Pouruchathpa and Dughdova and their son. 53 And they called their son Zarathustra, which being interpreted means, golden camel, after the vision that his mother had in her youth. And it came to pass that Zarathustra spent the days of his childhood in the house of the blind man. But as the days went on according to the days of Zarathustra, even unto the days of his youth, the blind man began to receive his sight. And he looked upon Zarathustra and thanked the gods for that which had been done unto him. 54 But Dughdova rebuked the man and explained unto him, instructing him that he would not teach her son concerning the gods of her fathers, which gods were of the priests that had cast them out of the city. Becoming a prophet of God to the Great Persian Empire 55 And it came to pass that Zarathustra grew, and he was wrought upon by the ministrations of the spirit world and taught those things that he would one day teach unto the people. And when the days of the pinnacle of his manhood was reached, the Lord sent an angel unto Zarathustra and gave unto him the laws of the gospel and taught unto him all those things that had been corrupted among the children of men. 56 And the Lord called Zarathustra to be a prophet and preach the things that he had learned from the angel, and also those things that he had learned from the ministrations of the Spirit in his youth. And he was taught the plan of God, who was called Ahura Mazda according to the language and the customs of the people. 57 And he also knew of the plan of Lucifer, who was called Ahriman, according to the words of the people. 58 And now, I, Moroni, would that ye should realize, even those who have received these things, that the Father hath allowed his prophets to teach His gospel unto all of His children in their own tongue and according to their customs and traditions, as I have previously explained it unto you in this record. 59 And Ahura Mazda shall be known in the world as the God of Zarathustra, a prophet of God. But this Ahura Mazda is the Father of whom I have spoken of in this record. Thus can ye see that the names which the children of men give unto Him are of little importance to our Father. 60 For the words of Zarathustra were given in their purity to the children of men in the beginning. And he become a prophet to his people. And there were many that followed after his teachings. 61 And it came to pass that he taught the gospel to one of the great kings who was among the people. And this king accepted the teachings of Zarathustra and caused them to be taught throughout the land. Nevertheless, the King would not allow those teachings of Zarathustra to be taught, which would usurp his authority among the people, or in other words, the things that would take away from his own divinity. 62 And Zarathustra taught in the court of the King for many years.

lol u dont need to say it like that

Ha ha! Good joke

Very well said!!

Agreed. I think I managed to do just that. Well, it comes with age when you had better see there is noone else to take responsibilty for your actions.

You are idealizing!

Ugh it's destroying mine from within. See our elections next year and it's all the same families running for top positions. We're basically the tropical version of the Holy Roman Empire, where nationalism is an afterthought to tribal loyalties.

Infact hinduisme and sanscrite (issue of procrite) originate from this part of the central asia.gathas and avestas are persian.upanishades are from this religion. The symbol of ox (Cow in india),and pawn ( a divine bird ( angel to zoarastrians)are also from zoarastrism.

Zoroastrianism does include a caste system lol.

@@tasinal-hassan8268 there used to be one, though not in the same sense that hinduism has inspired. it's not in the religion it's self per say but was practice outside of it, hopefully that makes sense. there used to be three different "castes", the soldier caste, herdsmen caste, and the priestly caste. all of which were seen equally as important parts of the whole of society. i recommend listening to the (zoroastrian Q and A) podcast on Spotify and listen to there latest podcast called (episode 6: the priesthood) they talk about it in there.

@@kalicow98 Sounds interesting. But were these castes merit-based?

They're certainly far nicer people than Arabs are, that's for sure.

Most ridiculous comment I've read all week. In the the Old Testament the Bible says, "Come let us reason together." -Isaiah 1:18 and in the New Testament, Jesus taught, "ASK, and it shall be given you; SEEK, and ye shall find; KNOCK, and it shall be opened unto you." -Matthew 7:7 Lastly in Proverbs 25:2 "It is the glory of God to conceal a matter, but the glory of KINGS to SEARCH IT OUT." So tell me again where CRITICAL THINKING is not encouraged in Christianity. I can think of a few more verses as well. You are mistaken my friend, in fact IMO, most of the Conspiracy Channels here on YT belong to Christians. I think I'd have fun talking to you about your biggest problems with the Bible, pure misconceptions I'm sure.

micro fox Zoroastrianism was the fantasy. Sorry to burst your 'if left alone' bubble but Islam is the reality. Please wake up and accept it before it's too late.

This may blow your mind as it does for me, what if I was to say in the essence of what we are, not who we are because who we are is a product of what we become once immersed into this reality and given these parimeters of self conscience, and the illusion of our own world view.. But in the very essence of all of this we are really one separated as light is separated through a prism, though at the other side different colors come out each appearing as separate colors, it's source or it's essence is one light. When we deal with people let us remember this, let us remember that when we hurt other people who are we hurting really or when we make others happy. Though we may not see it now, once we go to the other side we will. As experienced by those with near death experiences.

God is not law, law is an expression of his will, which is our will, hidden within this thick cloak of our reality, it is needed as we cannot fathom it at this level but in our essence it is only second nature.

God is what is, law is the expression of what is concealed in what is not but what should be. Law is obsolete if there isn't anything diametric opposed to it, In the very essence of existence is perfection, in perfection there is no law because there is no need for it, it's just nature, no free will. Through concealment of this essence, there is this vacuum we call our world, imperfection, the ability to do and choose as we will, at times going against what even best for us. In this world our essence becomes law. But we cannot call law essence because we come from a place that supercedes and precedes this realm where law exists.

@@MohamedOmar-wc6mb Mr.omar, I am born Muslim, the problem with Islam and all Abrahamic religions is that they never admit that all miseries human being have is because of them, and the cruellest religion is actually Islam, in the war of khandagh the prophet Mohammed ordered to kill 670 jews of the bani quraiza, you must read the history and stop being blind and deaf.

That number (250000) is too inflated. The Zoroastria population in India, let alone Mumbai has never reached that number ever in their history in the subcontinent. The Zoroastrian population in India is pegged at about being 59000 and about approximately 30000 in Mumbai.

Alpen Jodler Introduction 17 But this was not the only people to whom the Lord had given his laws and his gospel and had blessed with the Priesthood that would allow the children of men to establish churches and places of worship among them. 18 And I have explained unto you that the Lord is no respecter of persons; and that one nation is just as important to him as another. And he sendeth forth his prophets among all his children, even unto as many as will hear his words. The Birth Of Zarathustra 42 And it came to pass that there lived a man and his wife in the eastern part of the wilderness that surrounded the great land of Mesopotamia. And his name was Pouruchathpa, and the name of his wife was Dughdova. 43 And Dughdova was a chosen daughter of God who had the spirit of the Lord with her since the days of her youth. And in the days of her youth she dreamed a dream, in which she saw a great camel descend upon the home of her father. And the camel was golden in color and spoke in her tongue, calling her by name and saying unto her: 44 Behold, truly thou art blessed above all those of the earth. For thou shalt bring forth a son and he shall bring about much righteousness in the land of thy fathers. And in thy heart thou shalt know the things that thou should teach unto him; but the things of thy fathers, even those things which thou hast been taught, teach them not unto him, for he hath been chosen by the great Ahura Mazda, who is thy Lord. 45 And it came to pass that as she grew in stature she kept these things in her heart. And she married Pouruchathpa and did not divulge these things unto him. 46 And Pouruchathpa was an honorable man, who had much business among the merchants of his town. And when Dughdova was ready to deliver her child, she called Pouruchathpa unto her and recounted unto him the dream that she had as a youth. 47 And there were midwives there who heard the things that she told unto her husband. And they immediately spread what they had heard throughout the city. And the priests, who were those that had been appointed over the people to keep them in subjection to the gods that they worshipped, even these did come into the house and mocked Dughdova for the things which she had said concerning her child. 48 And because of the things that they said unto her, she became exceedingly sorrowful and cried that her husband would come in unto her. And when Pouruchathpa had heard all that the priests had said to his wife, he was filled with anger, and he cursed them and their gods and threw them out of the house. 49 And the priests commanded the people of the city to avoid the house of Pouruchathpa and his wife, and their child; for they were condemned from that time forth by the gods of the people. And because of the condemnation of the priests, the midwives did leave the side of Dughdova and would not return again unto her. 50 And Pouruchathpa shut the door of the house and went in unto his wife. And Dughdova cried in pain and delivered the child. And as the child was born, the sun shone down upon the house. And its reflection caused the people of the city to become terrified at the sight, and they ran in among the priests and told them of the great light that shined down upon the house. 51 And the priests surrounded the house and condemned it before their gods. And they commanded the people to cast Pouruchathpa and his wife out from among them. And before an hour had passed after the birth of their son, Pouruchathpa and Dughdova were forced out into the wilderness by the people. 52 And it came to pass that the Lord was with them, and they found shelter and sustenance in the wilderness. And they came upon the house of a man who had lost his sight many years ago from the effects of the sun. And this man was poor and had little effects, but those that he did have, he offered to Pouruchathpa and Dughdova and their son. 53 And they called their son Zarathustra, which being interpreted means, golden camel, after the vision that his mother had in her youth. And it came to pass that Zarathustra spent the days of his childhood in the house of the blind man. But as the days went on according to the days of Zarathustra, even unto the days of his youth, the blind man began to receive his sight. And he looked upon Zarathustra and thanked the gods for that which had been done unto him. 54 But Dughdova rebuked the man and explained unto him, instructing him that he would not teach her son concerning the gods of her fathers, which gods were of the priests that had cast them out of the city. Becoming a prophet of God to the Great Persian Empire 55 And it came to pass that Zarathustra grew, and he was wrought upon by the ministrations of the spirit world and taught those things that he would one day teach unto the people. And when the days of the pinnacle of his manhood was reached, the Lord sent an angel unto Zarathustra and gave unto him the laws of the gospel and taught unto him all those things that had been corrupted among the children of men. 56 And the Lord called Zarathustra to be a prophet and preach the things that he had learned from the angel, and also those things that he had learned from the ministrations of the Spirit in his youth. And he was taught the plan of God, who was called Ahura Mazda according to the language and the customs of the people. 57 And he also knew of the plan of Lucifer, who was called Ahriman, according to the words of the people. 58 And now, I, Moroni, would that ye should realize, even those who have received these things, that the Father hath allowed his prophets to teach His gospel unto all of His children in their own tongue and according to their customs and traditions, as I have previously explained it unto you in this record. 59 And Ahura Mazda shall be known in the world as the God of Zarathustra, a prophet of God. But this Ahura Mazda is the Father of whom I have spoken of in this record. Thus can ye see that the names which the children of men give unto Him are of little importance to our Father. 60 For the words of Zarathustra were given in their purity to the children of men in the beginning. And he become a prophet to his people. And there were many that followed after his teachings. 61 And it came to pass that he taught the gospel to one of the great kings who was among the people. And this king accepted the teachings of Zarathustra and caused them to be taught throughout the land. Nevertheless, the King would not allow those teachings of Zarathustra to be taught, which would usurp his authority among the people, or in other words, the things that would take away from his own divinity. 62 And Zarathustra taught in the court of the King for many years. But after a time, he went back among the people and began to preach the gospel unto them. And because of his teachings to the King, the people, who were of the nation of the great Persian Empire, which had risen to power after the Babylonian Empire, were ruled with justice.

Thank you for sharing this information!

Can a non parsi/irani also become Zoroastrian and follow Zarathustra teachings convert to it ?

So u came here only to be a critic...which was also unnecessary..imagine that.

I understand that you only critique with the best intentions to improve for the future 😌 perhaps they are considering that people have different learning styles and the background music may keep an auditory learner more attentive 😌 it is not bother ❤

Farhad F. Elavia precisely

@Uncle Ruckus very interesting , I see zoroastrian symbolism in ancient armenian artifacts as well

In Assyrian iconography first

Most of the concepts that you have listed above are common in mankind; for example the contrast between light and darkness. the naming of "angels"; could you pls explain that? cause the names of the zarathustrian Yazdan have nothing in common with the christian angels.

Gaya Marɘtan I think you're wrong because Christianity was reinvigorated with more Persian belief system from Mithraism, which was itself part of the same tradition. From a reliable source it states: "Angelology and demonology in Judaism became more highly developed during and after the period of the Babylonian Exile (6th-5th centuries bc), when contacts were made with Zoroastrianism. In the Old Testament, Yahweh is called the Lord of hosts. These hosts (Sabaoth) are the heavenly army that fights against the forces of evil and performs various missions, such as guarding the entrance to Paradise, punishing evildoers, protecting the faithful, and revealing God’s Word to man. Two archangels are mentioned in the canonical Old Testament: Michael, the warrior leader of the heavenly hosts, and Gabriel, the heavenly messenger. Two are mentioned in the apocryphal Old Testament: Raphael, God’s healer or helper (in the book of Tobit), and Uriel (Fire of God), the watcher over the world and the lowest part of hell (in II Esdras). Though these are the only four named, seven archangels are noted in Tob. 12:15. Besides the archangels, there were also other orders of angels, the cherubim and seraphim, which have been noted earlier".

Ancient Persia a was huge land bridge between the West and the East. As the numerous Indo-Iranian speaking tribes pushed towards Central Asia they integrated their religious traditions with local ones. Thus influencing also Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism and Sikhism. That's why there are may common themes between the Abrahamic faiths (Judaism, Christianity and Islam) and those derived from the Indian subcontinent.

moby D Thanks. Universe. Uni One verse or song... Blessings and love to all.

moby D Some and I am amongst them, think that the three wise men who astrologically followed a star from the east to present gifts for both the birth and death of the Christ, were Zoroastrian holy men. One cannot break the Jewish ten commandment if we follow the wonderful prescriptions of, `Think good thoughts, speak good words and do good actions.` Blessings and love to all.

That is very interesting. Could it be that light is the elixir of immortality that so many of the ancient alchemists from different civilisations like India, China and Persia sought? I had never thought of it that way but it seems to make sense.

I beg to differ. Darkness is absence of light, as coldness is absence of heat, silence absence of sound and stilness absence of motion. Basically you either have different forms of actualized energy or you don't. The fire that burnt behind a Magi (Zoroastrian Priest) symbolized the fire in our Sun source of life. So when they draw a picture of a Magi he had fire (light) behind him at the altar. So this light around the Persian Magi's was copied in subsequent religions to denote sanctity of their holy men.

@@SiyavoshM light behind, darkness in front of the magi. From the light we are sent into the darkness that we may transmute the ignorance of our mundane nature into the awareness of divine nature.

When are you going to make more videos about Iranian Peoples?

in ancient literature shukracharya is said to be the guru of asurs, dont you think Zarathustra & Shukracharya sound similar!!Maybe Indian & Iranians lived in 1 common place before splitting up & went in different places!!& that time's tale has been carried to our books!

Similarities between avestic and vedic languages are known by western scholars since the studies on zoroastrism started in Europe, and some of them wrote both on zoroastrism and indian teachings. Exemple : Anquetil Duperon back in the 18th century wrote a translation of the Avesta and later translated a few dozen upanishad into latin. More recently, Jean Varenne, which was uttermost an Indian civilization specialist wrote on zoroastrism. Although somewhat controversial, his books which are targeted at and easily accessible to non scholars teach a lot about the similarities between vedic and zoroastrian religious practice and philosophy ; some parallels can also be drawn between those indo-iranian doctrines and other old indo european (german, greek, latin) beliefs.

There are few similarities between avesta and vedic culture but they aren't completely same but considering the proximity between there land it's obvious they may have influenced each other but we dont much proof so cant say much coz vedic and aventa has many differences as well

And the camel was golden in color and spoke in her tongue, calling her by name and saying unto her: 44 Behold, truly thou art blessed above all those of the earth. For thou shalt bring forth a son and he shall bring about much righteousness in the land of thy fathers. And in thy heart thou shalt know the things that thou should teach unto him; but the things of thy fathers, even those things which thou hast been taught, teach them not unto him, for he hath been chosen by the great Ahura Mazda, who is thy Lord. 45 And it came to pass that as she grew in stature she kept these things in her heart. And she married Pouruchathpa and did not divulge these things unto him. 46 And Pouruchathpa was an honorable man, who had much business among the merchants of his town. And when Dughdova was ready to deliver her child, she called Pouruchathpa unto her and recounted unto him the dream that she had as a youth. 47 And there were midwives there who heard the things that she told unto her husband. And they immediately spread what they had heard throughout the city. And the priests, who were those that had been appointed over the people to keep them in subjection to the gods that they worshipped, even these did come into the house and mocked Dughdova for the things which she had said concerning her child. 48 And because of the things that they said unto her, she became exceedingly sorrowful and cried that her husband would come in unto her. And when Pouruchathpa had heard all that the priests had said to his wife, he was filled with anger, and he cursed them and their gods and threw them out of the house. 49 And the priests commanded the people of the city to avoid the house of Pouruchathpa and his wife, and their child; for they were condemned from that time forth by the gods of the people. And because of the condemnation of the priests, the midwives did leave the side of Dughdova and would not return again unto her. 50 And Pouruchathpa shut the door of the house and went in unto his wife. And Dughdova cried in pain and delivered the child. And as the child was born, the sun shone down upon the house. And its reflection caused the people of the city to become terrified at the sight, and they ran in among the priests and told them of the great light that shined down upon the house. 51 And the priests surrounded the house and condemned it before their gods. And they commanded the people to cast Pouruchathpa and his wife out from among them. And before an hour had passed after the birth of their son, Pouruchathpa and Dughdova were forced out into the wilderness by the people. 52 And it came to pass that the Lord was with them, and they found shelter and sustenance in the wilderness. And they came upon the house of a man who had lost his sight many years ago from the effects of the sun. And this man was poor and had little effects, but those that he did have, he offered to Pouruchathpa and Dughdova and their son. 53 And they called their son Zarathustra, which being interpreted means, golden camel, after the vision that his mother had in her youth. And it came to pass that Zarathustra spent the days of his childhood in the house of the blind man. But as the days went on according to the days of Zarathustra, even unto the days of his youth, the blind man began to receive his sight. And he looked upon Zarathustra and thanked the gods for that which had been done unto him. 54 But Dughdova rebuked the man and explained unto him, instructing him that he would not teach her son concerning the gods of her fathers, which gods were of the priests that had cast them out of the city. Becoming a prophet of God to the Great Persian Empire 55 And it came to pass that Zarathustra grew, and he was wrought upon by the ministrations of the spirit world and taught those things that he would one day teach unto the people. And when the days of the pinnacle of his manhood was reached, the Lord sent an angel unto Zarathustra and gave unto him the laws of the gospel and taught unto him all those things that had been corrupted among the children of men. 56 And the Lord called Zarathustra to be a prophet and preach the things that he had learned from the angel, and also those things that he had learned from the ministrations of the Spirit in his youth. And he was taught the plan of God, who was called Ahura Mazda according to the language and the customs of the people. 57 And he also knew of the plan of Lucifer, who was called Ahriman, according to the words of the people. 58 And now, I, Moroni, would that ye should realize, even those who have received these things, that the Father hath allowed his prophets to teach His gospel unto all of His children in their own tongue and according to their customs and traditions, as I have previously explained it unto you in this record. 59 And Ahura Mazda shall be known in the world as the God of Zarathustra, a prophet of God. But this Ahura Mazda is the Father of whom I have spoken of in this record. Thus can ye see that the names which the children of men give unto Him are of little importance to our Father. 60 For the words of Zarathustra were given in their purity to the children of men in the beginning. And he become a prophet to his people. And there were many that followed after his teachings. 61 And it came to pass that he taught the gospel to one of the great kings who was among the people. And this king accepted the teachings of Zarathustra and caused them to be taught throughout the land. Nevertheless, the King would not allow those teachings of Zarathustra to be taught, which would usurp his authority among the people, or in other words, the things that would take away from his own divinity. 62 And Zarathustra taught in the court of the King for many years. But after a time, he went back among the people and began to preach the gospel unto them. And because of his teachings to the King, the people, who were of the nation of the great Persian Empire, which had risen to power after the Babylonian Empire, were ruled with justice.

0lAllan Introduction 17 But this was not the only people to whom the Lord had given his laws and his gospel and had blessed with the Priesthood that would allow the children of men to establish churches and places of worship among them. 18 And I have explained unto you that the Lord is no respecter of persons; and that one nation is just as important to him as another. And he sendeth forth his prophets among all his children, even unto as many as will hear his words. The Birth Of Zarathustra 42 And it came to pass that there lived a man and his wife in the eastern part of the wilderness that surrounded the great land of Mesopotamia. And his name was Pouruchathpa, and the name of his wife was Dughdova. 43 And Dughdova was a chosen daughter of God who had the spirit of the Lord with her since the days of her youth. And in the days of her youth she dreamed a dream, in which she saw a great camel descend upon the home of her father. And the camel was golden in color and spoke in her tongue, calling her by name and saying unto her: 44 Behold, truly thou art blessed above all those of the earth. For thou shalt bring forth a son and he shall bring about much righteousness in the land of thy fathers. And in thy heart thou shalt know the things that thou should teach unto him; but the things of thy fathers, even those things which thou hast been taught, teach them not unto him, for he hath been chosen by the great Ahura Mazda, who is thy Lord. 45 And it came to pass that as she grew in stature she kept these things in her heart. And she married Pouruchathpa and did not divulge these things unto him. 46 And Pouruchathpa was an honorable man, who had much business among the merchants of his town. And when Dughdova was ready to deliver her child, she called Pouruchathpa unto her and recounted unto him the dream that she had as a youth. 47 And there were midwives there who heard the things that she told unto her husband. And they immediately spread what they had heard throughout the city. And the priests, who were those that had been appointed over the people to keep them in subjection to the gods that they worshipped, even these did come into the house and mocked Dughdova for the things which she had said concerning her child. 48 And because of the things that they said unto her, she became exceedingly sorrowful and cried that her husband would come in unto her. And when Pouruchathpa had heard all that the priests had said to his wife, he was filled with anger, and he cursed them and their gods and threw them out of the house. 49 And the priests commanded the people of the city to avoid the house of Pouruchathpa and his wife, and their child; for they were condemned from that time forth by the gods of the people. And because of the condemnation of the priests, the midwives did leave the side of Dughdova and would not return again unto her. 50 And Pouruchathpa shut the door of the house and went in unto his wife. And Dughdova cried in pain and delivered the child. And as the child was born, the sun shone down upon the house. And its reflection caused the people of the city to become terrified at the sight, and they ran in among the priests and told them of the great light that shined down upon the house. 51 And the priests surrounded the house and condemned it before their gods. And they commanded the people to cast Pouruchathpa and his wife out from among them. And before an hour had passed after the birth of their son, Pouruchathpa and Dughdova were forced out into the wilderness by the people. 52 And it came to pass that the Lord was with them, and they found shelter and sustenance in the wilderness. And they came upon the house of a man who had lost his sight many years ago from the effects of the sun. And this man was poor and had little effects, but those that he did have, he offered to Pouruchathpa and Dughdova and their son. 53 And they called their son Zarathustra, which being interpreted means, golden camel, after the vision that his mother had in her youth. And it came to pass that Zarathustra spent the days of his childhood in the house of the blind man. But as the days went on according to the days of Zarathustra, even unto the days of his youth, the blind man began to receive his sight. And he looked upon Zarathustra and thanked the gods for that which had been done unto him. 54 But Dughdova rebuked the man and explained unto him, instructing him that he would not teach her son concerning the gods of her fathers, which gods were of the priests that had cast them out of the city. Becoming a prophet of God to the Great Persian Empire 55 And it came to pass that Zarathustra grew, and he was wrought upon by the ministrations of the spirit world and taught those things that he would one day teach unto the people. And when the days of the pinnacle of his manhood was reached, the Lord sent an angel unto Zarathustra and gave unto him the laws of the gospel and taught unto him all those things that had been corrupted among the children of men. 56 And the Lord called Zarathustra to be a prophet and preach the things that he had learned from the angel, and also those things that he had learned from the ministrations of the Spirit in his youth. And he was taught the plan of God, who was called Ahura Mazda according to the language and the customs of the people. 57 And he also knew of the plan of Lucifer, who was called Ahriman, according to the words of the people. 58 And now, I, Moroni, would that ye should realize, even those who have received these things, that the Father hath allowed his prophets to teach His gospel unto all of His children in their own tongue and according to their customs and traditions, as I have previously explained it unto you in this record. 59 And Ahura Mazda shall be known in the world as the God of Zarathustra, a prophet of God. But this Ahura Mazda is the Father of whom I have spoken of in this record. Thus can ye see that the names which the children of men give unto Him are of little importance to our Father. 60 For the words of Zarathustra were given in their purity to the children of men in the beginning. And he become a prophet to his people. And there were many that followed after his teachings. 61 And it came to pass that he taught the gospel to one of the great kings who was among the people. And this king accepted the teachings of Zarathustra and caused them to be taught throughout the land. Nevertheless, the King would not allow those teachings of Zarathustra to be taught, which would usurp his authority among the people, or in other words, the things that would take away from his own divinity. 62 And Zarathustra taught in the court of the King for many years.

And because of his teachings to the King, the people, who were of the nation of the great Persian Empire, which had risen to power after the Babylonian Empire, were ruled with justice.

Me too. I've no ancestral connection to Iran as far as I know, but Zarathustra's philosophy makes such sense to me. 🕯️🕯️🕯️

***** Indeed. But there are quite a few other people other than the Iranics who have lost their culture and heritage - and that is basically everyone in the Near East except the Arabs theselves. The Assyrians, Egyptians, Anatolians, etc... They are all following this backward arab religion that clearly gives favor to arabs - yet people worship this Arab god.

shiva ockeloen Amen.

shiva ockeloen I agree!

Amen

***** Arab propaganda to make people forget this backward Arab-supremacist destructive religion.
