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.
