Zoroastrianism Mythology
Zoroastrianism Mythology: The mythological system inherent in Zoroastrianism, one of the world's oldest monotheistic religions, founded by Prophet Zoroaster in ancient Iran. It encompasses a wide array of divine beings, cosmological narratives, and moral teachings that underpin the faith's belief in the eternal struggle between good and evil. Central to this mythology are figures such as Ahura Mazda, the benevolent creator deity, Angra Mainyu, the destructive spirit of darkness, and a host of Yazatas or divine entities representing various aspects of nature and human endeavor. The Chinvat Bridge, the cosmic bridge that separates the mortal world from the spiritual realm, also plays a significant role in Zoroastrian mythology.
