The Prophet Zarathustra

The Prophet Zarathushtra, known as Zoroaster to the Greeks. Founder of the world's oldest monotheistic religion Zoroastrianism, based on the ethical principles of Good Thoughts, Good Words, and Good Deeds. Zoroastrians believe in the one God, Ahura Mazda. In addition to worshipping God, there are 7 bounteous immortals, known as Amesha Spentas, which are emanations of Ahura Mazda.  There are lesser divine beings known as Yazatas and Fravashi's which are also worthy of worship. The Fravashi can be thought of as your personal angel or your higher self.

The Zoroastrian religion began 3700 years ago when the prophet Zarathushtra had a revelation around the age of 30. Zarathushtra converted king Vishtaspa later on in his life and the religion spread. It remained the religion of successive Iranian kingdoms and empires until the fall of the Sassanian Empire in 633 AD.
