Thesis on Zarathustra

“Zarathustra,” the story of a man who was similar to Jesus in some ways. Zarathustra left his home when he was 30 years old and lived a solitary life in the mountains for ten years. During that time he enjoyed being alone and he communicated with his spirit. Eventually, he got tired of being alone so he left the mountaintop and traveled from village to village to preach his philosophy of life to the people he met. During his travels, Zarathustra basically said that God is dead, and that man must overcome his human nature because underneath every person is the God he is looking for. He thought that god was only alive in spirit and in talk but there was no physical body that was god. He asked the question who we are in the absence of god and he thought that without god, humans are lost and don’t know where they came from or where they’re going.
