The religion of Zartusht was of the people and for the people and was based on Action and truth

The people of the ancient world believed in a set of superstitious beliefs and practices in order to draw attention and the approval of powerful gods. This was the reason why in time a group of diviners and religious leaders rose to enact certain ceremonies and to enforce these practices on the people. As society came into existence religion and its rule became the basis of power, and thus it became the foundation of monarchy and government. Throughout the history of the world man has been dictated and ruled by false religions and their practices which sought nothing but total subjugation of mankind to the power of the temples and churches. It was not only in the middle ages that Christianity became the trade of ecclesiastical leaders in which heaven was bought and sold, but even today we continue to see this practice among various civilizations, these institutions bear no proximity with the real lives of the people, they are simply enforced on the masses. The pious is he who obeys the instructions of the expert in prayers, oblation and practices and abides by the rules that the church has set for him in order to attain heaven and avoid hell. All these practices are mere reminders of bribes of the institution of divinity wrought by successful ways to control man and submit him to the will of god… These institutions all claim that terrestrial world is transitory and therefore man must think of the other world. He must seek eternal fulfilment therein. Such convictions not only authorize these institutions but they also remove man from the realities of life. They turn him into a trader who seeks religious approval in this world and that of the other. He becomes a weak a wricked being who quivers at the thought of hell fire without once looking at life, and thus dose he turn to superstition. The best example of such subjugation is to found in societies which have been thought to be pious but which have in fact empowered the church and its forces with in their society. All such societies have been backward, poor, suppressed and often corrupt.

The value of zartusht’s massage will be more appreciated once we look at modern day religious societies. We will then see how in the twentieth century, the era of the atom and space travel, there are still intermediaries, diviners and charlatans who use religion in order to suppress men.
