The ancient and mystical poetry of Zarathushtra and the first Zoroastrians: Now accessible to the public in a modern translation!
"A critical resource for students and scholars of Zoroastrian tradition. Faithful and beautiful, rigorous while remaining accessible. A profound achievement and contribution to the field." – Dr. Michael Muhammad Knight, religious studies scholar and author of Muhammad: Forty Introductions
Zarathushtra’s Gathas & the Old Avestan canon are the central texts of Zoroastrianism, one of the oldest continuously practiced religions in the world. Ithas had a vast influence on the development of many other religions, philosophies, global ethics, and more. Composed by Zarathushtra and the first Zoroastrians more than 3000 years ago, they remain surprisingly evergreen in their relevance and applicability throughout the ages.
These ancient and mystical texts speak of the constant struggle to be virtuous, the rewards that come from it, how oppression and tyranny must be fought against, how to follow the Path of Asha, and more spiritual and ethical lessons.
With this new and innovative translation, Pablo Vazquez, a Zoroastrian scholar and convert, sheds new light on these sacred texts of eternal wisdom in a way that makes them accessible to a modern audience and allows Zarathushtra’s original message to spread into the 21st century and beyond.
