What is the Zoroastrian view of the nature of human beings?
Zoroastrians do not believe that human beings are born in sin. They believe that there is potential for good as well as evil in every human being. There is a divine spark or essence in each of us. We should recognise it and utilise it to its fullest potential. This divine spark (“Fravashi” or “Fravahar”) is depicted in visual arts as a man with outstretched wings.
