Exploring the Zoroastrian worldview
This Religion and worldviews video introduces pupils to the Zoroastrian worldview, one of the oldest religions in the world. It explains the key beliefs including faith in one God, Ahura Mazda, the creator of all things who represents goodness and light. Pupils learn about Zoroaster, the prophet who shared these teachings, and explore the Zoroastrian belief in choosing good thoughts, kind words and helpful actions.
The video also introduces important elements of Zoroastrian worship and the fire temples where an eternal flame burns as a symbol of Ahura Mazda’s presence. Pupils discover how Zoroastrians understand the balance between good and evil and how their faith guides them to live good lives.
This video is part of Kapow Primary’s Religious Education videos. It helps children understand one of the world’s oldest monotheistic religions, supporting teachers in exploring faith, morality and the concept of good and evil.
