Zoroastrianism Explained: Zoroaster, Ahura Mazda, and the Persian Roots of Heaven and Hell

By Charles Bennet

Zoroastrianism shaped the world without conquering it.

Zarathustra is one of history's most mysterious teachers: a reformer from ancient Iran whose ideas still echo inside Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. This book tells his story the way it should be told: clear, vivid, and honest, without pretending we know what no one can prove.

Inside, you'll discover what the Avesta is (and what it isn't), why people search for zoroastrianism scriptures and a "zoroastrianism holy book," and what the Gathas and Yasnas actually represent. You'll also explore the religion's core message: good thoughts, good words, good deeds, the symbol of the Faravahar, the sacred fire, and the moral fight between truth and lie.

This is Zoroastrianism 101 for real readers: a narrative introduction that connects the history, the legends, and the ideas people keep looking for, including the questions behind "zoroastrianism and the end of history" and the common comparison "zoroastrianism the new testament" (explained without selling you a fantasy).
