Irano-Aryan Faith and Doctrine as Contained in the Zend-Avesta

""Irano-Aryan Faith and Doctrine as Contained in the Zend-Avesta"" is a book written by Albert Pike. It is a comprehensive study of the religious beliefs and practices of the ancient Iranians and Aryans, as documented in the Zend-Avesta, the sacred text of Zoroastrianism. The book explores the origins and development of the Irano-Aryan religion, its mythology, cosmology, ethics, and rituals. It also examines the influence of the Irano-Aryan faith on other religions, such as Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. The author, Albert Pike, was a prominent American Freemason and writer, known for his works on esotericism, philosophy, and comparative religion. This book is considered a classic in the field of religious studies and is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and philosophy of the ancient Iranians and Aryans.He (Pike) knew that the Proto-Aryans and the Indo-Aryans were our physical, linguistic and philosophical ancestors; and he knew that the monotheistic Irano-Aryans were our religious, religio-philosophical and spiritual ancestors; and with his transcendent genius he places before our mental vision the habitat, migrations and early pre-historic history of these our ancestors.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
