Freddie's Zoroastic Religion

Here you will find lots of information about the belief of our beloved Freddie. I only have a copy with plain facts which I got from a friend. Hope it gives you a bit of an idea of the religion in which Freddie was raised as a child.

  • The Parsi's-Parsen who live in Indonesia are descendants from followers of the theory of Zoroaster, 120.00 followers.
  • The language they speak is called "Goejarat"
  • Parism is the religion of the Parsi's, based on the theory of Zoroaster. A characteristic is the delivery of the dead. The bodies are placed on a platform where they are eaten by vultures.......
  • Zoroaster: Old Persian founder of the religion Zoroastrism, 7th or 6th century B.C. (also called Mazdeism)
  • Mazdeism (Parsism, Zoroastrism), religion from Persia, mentioned in the books of Awesta.

  • Encloses a puur dualistic theory about the God of light "Ahura Mazda" (Ormazd, Ormuzd) and the ruler of the dark "Ahriman". These 2 are battling for ages and the God of light will eventually win.

  • Each follower of the theory of the good has to contribute to that victory: think good things, speak good things, act good. The present Parsi's don't accept the original theory. They think that "Ahura Mazda" is both sides, the light and dark side together (good and bad).

  • "Ahriman" (Arestic Angro Mainjoe) is the evil spirit in the Persian religion that is the embodiment of the dark and evil. Opponent of the lightgod "Ormoezd".

  • "Avesta" or "Awesta": the collection of holy books from Zoroastrism and Parsism, books with panegyrics and theories ascribed to Zoraster (Zarathustra). There is only 1/4 left of the collection. The age of "Awesta" is still uncertain. A later comment on the "Awesta" is called "Zend". (Hence the incorrect name "Zanola")

  • "Ormoesd" (Ormazd, Ahoera Mazda) is in the Zoroaster religion the name of the highest God.
  • Zarathoestra-Zoroaster
