Assignment:

In conclusion, this primary source of the The Iranian Afterlife: The Crossing of the Cinvat Bridge and the Roads to Heaven and Hell by "Menok I Khrat", is an example of the Zoroastrian vision of life after death, while judgment awaits to either enter to Heaven or Hell based on performance. It describes what happens to the good or evil souls after crossing the Cinvar Bridge, functioning as a guide for the afterlife they want to reach by promoting righteousness and virtue, so they can have happiness over torture. No one knows what happens after death except the dead. However, their vision and interpretations of living the best life with the highest principles, as well as the resurrection and ultimate salvation, inspire hope for a better afterlife.
