What Speaks Zarathustra; Zoroaster; Zoroastrianism References

By Dint

Bellwether, Haiku: Zoroaster To Oprah. Well Done.
Good thoughts, good words, good deeds. The Bountiful Spirit. Follow the good, eschew the Lie. Oprah's new Kind Words channel Channeling. Was JC expressing Zoroastrian ideas, see Egypt and East connections. Is that why religious and other authorities were threatened.
KNGDV: Why Lie? The Role of Lies
Zoroaster on lying. Never. Who can do that? Shall we think before speaking, and try?
Vetting Roots: Stuck in N for Nomad; How Culture Uses Religion
Even after death of pathmaker Zoroaster, successors divide at rules, rituals. Loss of a religion when a culture takes over, as in other religions.
The Fodder Site: Zoroaster. Tolerance. Reconciiation Ground.
Root religion for east and west. Can focus on creeds, rules and laws give way to essential precepts common to all: as in Zarathustra -- truth, help the poor, seek the good. Dualism: can be accommodated. Avoid the Lie, the Meanness.
Plain Meaning. Parthenon, Athena, Parthia, Virgin in Culture, Roots
Parthia -- ancient kingdom, probably Zoroastrian. Discussion in context of roots of Athena Partheneia.
