Zoroastrianism combines elements of monotheism Monotheism is the belief in a single, universal, all-encompassing deity. Various forms of monotheism exist, including: Theism, a term that usually refers to the belief in a 'personal' god, that is, a single god with a distinctive personality, rather than just a divine force.

     Extractions: Zoroastrianism Azerb.com Zoroastrianism (sometimes called less correctly 'fire worshipping'), one of the world's oldest religions, first began in Azerbaijan. In the ancient language of the land, 'Azer' means 'fire', and no other name seems quite as appropriate for Azerbaijan, since it once was the land of Zoroastrianism, where fire has an important role, even today, fire is still part of the country's symbols. This religion was founded in by the prophet Zoroaster ( Zarathustra ). The doctrines preached by Zoroaster are preserved in his metrical Gathas (psalms), which form part of the sacred scripture known as the Avesta . Zoroastrianism is also called Zarathustrism, Mazdaism, and Parsism. Parsism is the term used today, among the believers in India, the largest Zoroastrian society of today. The basic tenets of the Gathas consist of a worship of Ahura Mazda (the "Lord Wisdom") and an ethical dualism opposing Truth (Asha) and Lie, which permeate the entire universe. All that is good emanates from Ahura Mazda. All evil is caused Angra Mainyu (the "Fiendish Spirit") and his assistants. Upon death each person's soul will be judged at the Bridge of Discrimination; the follower of Truth will cross and be led to paradise, and the adherents of Lie will fall into hell. All evil will eventually be eliminated on earth in an onslaught of fire and molten metal. Zoroaster apparently combined two religious systems. The first is the monotheistic worship of Wisdom and his emanations including Asha, outlined in the Gathas. The second system describes a cult that worships Lord Ahura, the custodian of Asha. This system is described in a portion of the Avesta called the Liturgy of the Seven Chapters, which was composed after Zoroaster's death. The Gathas and the Seven Chapters form part of the larger liturgy called the Yasna. Other parts of the Yasna are the Yashts, which are hymns to individual deities, and the Vendidad, or Videvdat, a codification of ritual and law.

     Extractions: Zoroastrianism: Zoroastrianism is a small religious community, with its population base centered around Mumbai, established by Zarathustra in the 6th or 7th century BC. The followers are called Parsis because they came from Persia, now Iran, from where they were exiled in the 7th century AD because of religious persecutions by the Muslims. They traveled by sea, arriving in the coastal state of what is now called Gujarat in Western India. The Parsis believe in the existence of one invisible God. They believe that there is a continuous war between the good forces (forces of light), exemplified by good deeds, thought and speech and the evil forces (forces of darkness). God is represented in their temples through fire, which symbolizes light and believe that fire, water, air and earth are pure elements to be preserved. The holiest place for them is the village of Udvada in Gujarat, India. The Parsis are a close knit community numbering about 0.01% of India's population, however, they have contributed more to India than perhaps any other minority. Some Parsis were founders of the Indian Nationalist movement (for freedom from the British); they established modern Indian industry; they have been benevolent and have contributed enormously to establish charitable and such institutions in India, and they continue to oversee some of the bigger finance houses in India.

     http://www.duke.edu/~jds17/zoroast.html
     
     Extractions: Zoroastrianism is the ancient religion of Persia. It was founded about 3500 years ago by the prophet Zarathushtra. Arising out of the polytheistic traditions of ancient India and Iran, he was one of the first monotheists in human history. Zarathushtra preached that there was one God, whom he called Ahura Mazda. Ahura means "Lord," and Mazda means "Wise," so Zoroastrians call God the "Wise Lord." Zarathushtra has been known in the West as Zoroaster, from the Greek transliteration of his name; in Persia and India he is known as Zarthosht.
