In zoroastrian the bridge of judgment is called?

Answer 1

In Zoroastrianism the Bridge of Judgement is called the Chinvat bridge. In the Avestaic scripture the Avestaic word is Chinvat Paretu, literally meaning the Bridge of the Separator.

On the fourth morning after death, the soul ascends into the spiritual realm, and stands before the 3 Yazatas, angels, for judgement, for life on the earthly realm.

The three Yazatas, are Mithra, Yazata for overseeing all human contracts and relationship during one's lifetime on earth, whether the individual has pursued truth in everything he did.

The second angel, Yazata, is Sarosh, the Yazata that judges all obedience and committemt of the individual to God and His laws.

The third angel is Rashnu, the Yazata of Justice, his role is to assure justice and recompense.

After the soul is judged, he or she proceeds to the Chinvat bridge, for the final entry into the spiritual world.

If his/hers good deeds outweigh the bad, the bridge opens out wide and the soul crosses over to heaven, the House of Song, paridasu, paradise.

When the bad deeds outweigh the good, the bridge narrows down to a razor sharp width, and the soul falls down into the House of Foul Food, hell.

However, in Zoroastrianism, there is no perpetual hell. At the end of Time, all evil will be utterly destroyed, and the Soshyant, Redeemer, will judge all, including the souls in hell, and lead these back to the House of Song.

There is no distinction between religions and creeds, all souls will be judged at the end of Time, forgiven for bad deeds and all will enter the House of Song.
