Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Zoroastrian Civilization: From the Earliest Times to the Downfall of the Last Zoroastrian Empire 651 A. D Scope of the work. Zoroastrian Persia has filled the greatest number of pages in the ancient history of the East, and has made a name that will live as long as time endures. The mighty em pires of the ancient Persians covered a vast portion of Ahura Mazda's earth and included nearly all civilized nations. Three thousand years and more before the present day Zarathushtra, the prophet of Persia preached his excellent religion which has so greatly enriched the religious thought of the world, and, ac cording to the consensus of Opinion of Biblical scholars, has in fluenced, in their making, three of the great world religions, Juda ism, Christianity and Mohammedanism. Mithraism and Manichaeism, offshoots of Zoroastrianism, penetrated into Euro pean territory, and have left evidences of their influence in the ruins of temples and in sacred literature. The civilizations of the East and the West met in Persia for the first time in history under the Parsi kings of the Achaemenian dynasty. Zoroastrian Persia played the part of intermediary between East and West for several centuries, and her people enjoyed an importance quite unique in the world's history, from about 1000 B c to the seventh century A. D., when their vast empire vanished. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book In Search of Zarathustra written by Paul Kriwaczek and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2007-12-18 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long before the first Hebrew temple, before the birth of Christ or the mission of Muhammad, there lived in Persia a prophet to whom we owe the ideas of a single god, the cosmic struggle between good and evil, and the Apocalypse. His name was Zarathustra, and his teachings eventually held sway from the Indus to the Nile and spread as far as Britain. Following Zarathustra’s elusive trail back through time and across the Islamic, Christian, and Jewish worlds, Paul Kriwaczek uncovers his legacy at a wedding ceremony in present-day Central Asia, in the Cathar heresy of medieval France, and among the mystery cults of the Roman empire. He explores pre-Muslim Iran and Central Asia, ultimately bringing us face to face with the prophet himself, a teacher whose radical humility shocked and challenged his age, and whose teachings have had an enduring effect on Western thought. The result is a tour de force of travel and historical inquiry by an adventurer in the classic tradition.
Download or read book The Hymns of Zoroaster written by M. L. West and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2010-08-31 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zoroaster was one of the greatest and most radical religious reformers in the history of the world. The faith that he founded some 2600 years ago in a remote region of central Asia flourished to become the bedrock of a great empire as well as its official religion. Zoroastrianism is still practised today in parts of India and Iran and in smaller communities elsewhere, where its adherents are known as Parsis. It has the distinction of being one of the most ancient religions in the world: only Hinduism can lay claim to greater antiquity. The foundation texts of this venerable system of belief are the founder's own passionate poems, known as the Gathas ('Songs'), and a short ritual composed soon after his death, called the Liturgy in Seven Chapters. These hymns are the authentic utterances of a religious leader whose thought was way ahead of his time, and are among the most precious relics of human civilization. After so many millennia they continue to speak to us of an impressively austere theology and of an inspiring and easily understood moral code. Yet existing translations are few, divergent in their interpretations of the original Avestan language of Zoroaster, and frequently hard to access. M L West's new translation, based on the best modern scholarship, and augmented by a substantial introduction and notes, makes these powerfully resonant texts available to a wide audience in clear and accessible form. 'A thoroughly worthwhile and refreshingly readable translation of the Older Avesta, M L West's book will be widely welcomed, by students and general readers alike.' - Almut Hintze, Zartoshty Reader in Zoroastrianism, School of Oriental and African Studies, London

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life and Teachings of Zoroaster, the Great Persian, Vol. 2: Including a Comparison of the Persian and Religions I. For more than three thousand years the name of Zoroaster has been known in the world. Yet, during the middle ages Europe was under such a cloud that his name and his precepts faded, almost, from the memory of man. It was known that Persia, until the battle of Marathon (490 B. C.) was master of Western Asia, and the doctrines of Zoroaster were dominant in her realm. But Persia, even as late as three hundred years ago, was, to Europe, almost a sealed book. With the revival of learning, however, inquiry began to be made into her ancient doctrines and their author. Early Greek and Roman writers had made frequent mention of Zoroaster's name, and this stimulated later scholars to know more of him. Travelers in the far East were not then as numerous as to-day; but they kept bringing back word concerning the Persian Holy Book, the Avesta, and, finally, some two hundred years ago, Thomas Hyde, an Englishman, and an Oxford professor and oriental scholar, undertook to write a history of the Persian religion.

Download or read book The History of the Kurdish People written by Hamma Mirwaisi and published by Hamma Mirwaisi. This book was released on 2020-03-24 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FINAL EDITION I, Hamma Mirwaisi, was almost 75 years old while updating two of my history books known as 'The History of the Kurdish People,' which is the same as ‘The History of the White People or The Caucasian (Kew Gazî) People of Europe, North America, and Australia.' I am sad to find out that all Caucasian people are ignorant about their histories in this short life. The Lord of the Deva religion leaders (who used Lord Shiva Teaching) destroyed and transformed the Caucasian people in the last 2500 years. The leaders of the Deva religion destroyed many empires to create a new realm. And now they are trying to use the US and Russian empires against one another to elevate China as the undisputable Empire for a while before destroying bit bin later time. I believe my finding in these two books informs you about two powers. One is known as the followers of Lord Deva, and the other is known as the followers of God HU, the creator of humans. Deva or King Deva (Caucasian Sanskrit: Divine, Kurdish: Dêw, Arabic: Shaitan, Hebrew: Satan-Lucifer, English: Devil).
