The Spirit of Zoroastrianism (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from The Spirit of Zoroastrianism
With the great difference I have accepted your invitation to address the Parsis upon the theme of the present discourse. The subject is so noble, its literature so rich, its ramifications so numerous, that no living man could possibly do it full justice in a single lecture. Happy indeed, will I be, if I succeed In communicating to one or two of the learned Pars! scholars, who honour me with their presence, some of the deep interest which I have had for years in the esoteric meaning of the Mazdean faith. My hope is to attract your attention to the only line of research which can lead you towards the truth. That line was traced by Zoroaster and followed by the Magi, the Mobeds, and the Dasturs of old. Those great men have transmitted their thoughts to posterity under the safe cover of an external ritual.
