Origin of Contemporary religions - Ushta - WHAT?!

Pondering religious studies (over TEN THOUSAND NPD gods) I came across some worthy info here - what's your goal? My Goal in Life is something like Ushta with a dash of Amertat : 'To achieve ushta: abiding spiritual resplendence, happiness, and peace - an individual at peace with oneself and humanity at peace with itself. Spiritual resplendence gives a person the light of wisdom, a sense of spiritual confidence that the path a person has chosen will lead to a meaningful and fulfilling life. It is inner enlightenment of the spiritual self and a beacon that lights the path ahead.
As with the Amesha Spentas, ushta is a conceptual word rather than a word with a single meaning. Realization of ushta follows as an outcome of leading a life based on the Amesha Spentas of which two have a special connection: asha and armaiti. While a person's spiritual quest is an individual one, achieving ushta requires living the life of an ashavan - a life of beneficent goodness towards all. One cannot achieve ushta by isolating oneself or being self-centred [ed. DRAT, but hey, the netz!] A manifestation of abiding peace is serenity or armaiti.
Ushta is a spiritual state and a state of being.
(From the Book of Yasna, chapters 27, 28, 29 and 43-46 (the Ushtavaiti Gatha). The Yasna is one of the books of the Avesta, the Zoroastrian Scriptures.)
Avestan (scriptural) selections:
Ushta ahmai yahmai ushta kahmaichit. (from Gatha Y. 43.1)
Free rendering: (Ushta) Happiness comes to them who bring happiness to others.
Ushta asti ushta ahmai, hyat ashai vahishtai ashem. (from Y. 27.14)
Free rendering: (Ushta) Abiding happiness and peace is theirs who choose (asha) goodness for its own sake.
Metaphorically speaking, if individuals in their spiritual quest journey to a mountain-top seeking quietude and the space for the inner voice to be heard; the space for introspection, reflection and meditation while occasionally reciting a mantra when facing a source of light, the spiritual resplendence of ushta will be found on their return' READ MORE  Picture of Zarathustra (see Also Nietzsche (who was comforted in his agitation by an older mum type who used to give him a bear hug to shut him up) whom is also my favourite *fun* Philosopher.
