Their main tenet is "Think Good Thoughts, Say Good Words, Do Good Deeds" and when ask which aspect was the most difficult to uphold, one follower replied 'Say Good Words" but her friend interjected, and replied "No: "Think Good Thoughts'. Nobody else has access to what you might be thinking. So it really is all down to your own discipline, at any given moment." She was right, I think...

In India they are known as Parsi. The origin is from Persia or modern day Ajerbaijan and surrounding areas. Some of the influential business leaders like Tata, Godrej belong to the religion. After death, their corpses are fed to vultures.

Starr,
It’s the problem when setters just copy and paste Wikipedia articles without knowledge or understanding of the subject

Player #2568453, Actually, the neo-pagan movement, of which modern Wicca is part of, is fairly recent. Most of the original traditions and such have been lost when it went into hiding. In the late 1950's, some folks attempted to recreate it from the fragments that were still around and made new ceremonies and such to flesh it out. Hence, it is not that old, technically.

The great Zoroaster has three principles for human life in this world, the first is a good thought, the second is a good deed, and the third is a good speech

Zoroaster couldn't have spoken Iranian. Iran didn't exist in his day. He spoke Parsi.

The first monotheistic religion. BTW, Wicca is fairly recent but Paganism is older. Wicca is a Pagan tradition, the 2 are not interchangeable.
