    Likewise, his example exerted a profound influence upon Plato, Aristotle, and the development of Judeo-Christian thought. Although some of these teachings have been preserved in the sacred scripture known as the Avesta, almost nothing is known about Zoroaster the man. "Zoroaster: Life and Work of the Forerunner in Iran" is the first general-audience biography of the great Persian sage. This compelling and readable story shows how, through connecting completely with the guidance offered him by Divine Grace, the young boy Saadi matures steadily until he realizes his task and his true identity. As the long-awaited herald, Zoroaster, it was his purpose to unite the people of Persia into a belief of one God, Ahuramazda, and to announce the coming of the Son of Man, the Soashyant, who would lead this world into and through the Last Judgement.

If� scripture often refers to Forces of expansion as Orisha Okunrin, which means Male Spirit and to Forces of contraction as Orisha Obinrin, which means Female Spirit. Both forms of Spiritual Power are considered of equal importance in the evolution of all that exists. One is not better than the other because it is only through the balance of opposites that life comes into Being.
