Zoroaster: Life and Work of the Forerunner in Iran

by Stiftung Gralsbotschaft

In ancient Persia, the great prophet Zoroaster brought to his people a way of life that united them for 1000 years, and made the land now known as Iran into a fertile, prosperous region. Likewise, his example exerted a profound influence upon Plato, Aristotle, and the development of Judeo-Christian thought. Although some of these teachings have been preserved in the sacred scripture known as the Avesta, almost nothing is known about Zoroaster the man. " Life and Work of the Forerunner in Iran" is the first general-audience biography of the great Persian sage. This compelling and readable story shows how, through connecting completely with the guidance offered him by Divine Grace, the young boy Saadi matures steadily until he realizes his task and his true identity. As the long-awaited herald, Zoroaster, it was his purpose to unite the people of Persia into a belief of one God, Ahuramazda, and to announce the coming of the Son of Man, the Soashyant, who would lead this world into and through the Last Judgement. Before his arrival, the land of Persia was consumed by natural disasters that destroyed most of the people and almost all of their structures. A new society had to be built literally from the ground up, this time based upon God's Laws, rather than man's. As we today are facing a new millennium, as natural disasters threaten our very existence, " Life and Work of the Forerunner in Iran" is a book of particular relevance.

To form a complete picture, which will bring about an understanding of how past and present events are connected, the Forerunners series should be read in this order:

1: Hjalfdar (Ephesus) - Prehistoric times
2: Krishna - India
3: Zoroaster/Zarathustra - Iran
4: Lao-Tse - China
5: Buddha - India
6: Mohammed - Arabia

Regarding this book (Zoroaster: Life and Work of the Forerunner in Iran), there are certain events referenced here which might leave a gap if the reader has not read 'PAST ERAS AWAKEN, VOLUME 2'.

不确定读过的是否这本，iranicaonline.org上关于先知琐罗亚斯德的系列研究。从《阿维斯塔》中历史形象的推断，到各文化中形象的演变，资料价值很高。
