About this listen

Before Heaven and Hell tells the true story of Zoroastrianism—the world’s first documented monotheism and the forgotten root of many modern beliefs. Long overshadowed by the religions it helped inspire, Zoroastrianism introduced core concepts we now take for granted: Heaven and Hell, final judgment, a cosmic savior, angels, demons, ethical dualism, and free will as a sacred responsibility.

This book explores how Zoroaster’s teachings shaped ancient empires, influenced the Abrahamic traditions, survived conquest, and still burn quietly in today’s culture—from Christmas stories to space operas. Perfect for history lovers, spiritual seekers, and fans of myth, philosophy, or world religions, this is the untold origin story behind the moral structure of the modern world. You don’t worship fire. You become it.
