Zoroastrianism – Origins, Teachings, and Religious Practice offers a well-founded and accessible introduction to one of the oldest religious traditions of humanity. The teachings of Zarathustra shaped central ideas of truth, order, responsibility, and free will, and exerted influence far beyond the Iranian cultural sphere.
This book provides a systematic introduction to the spiritual world of Zoroastrianism. It explains the figure of Zarathustra, the concept of God as Ahura Mazda, the significance of Asha and Druj, and the ethical core of the doctrine of good thoughts, good words, and good deeds. Historical background, key concepts, and religious ideas are presented clearly and explained in their interconnections.
The volume also addresses religious practice, prayer, concepts of purity, festivals, the calendar, and the religious cycle of the year. Topics such as death, judgment, world renewal, and the historical influence of Zoroastrianism on later religions are examined in depth.
The work is intended for readers with an interest in the history of religions, philosophy, and ancient spirituality. It is suitable both as an introductory text and as a reference work, offering reliable orientation within a rich and longstanding religious worldview.
A factual compendium for all who wish to understand Zoroastrianism in its depth, clarity, and cultural significance.
