For centuries, the Avesta-the sacred scripture of Zoroastrianism-has been both a guiding light and an unsolved mystery. Much of it has been lost to conquest, fire, and the relentless passage of time, leaving behind fragments that whisper of cosmic battles, divine laws, and a vision of the world's end.

Produktbeschreibung
For centuries, the Avesta-the sacred scripture of Zoroastrianism-has been both a guiding light and an unsolved mystery. Much of it has been lost to conquest, fire, and the relentless passage of time, leaving behind fragments that whisper of cosmic battles, divine laws, and a vision of the world's end. Guardians of the Sacred Flame: The Lost Pages of the Avesta takes readers deep into the heart of this ancient legacy, uncovering the struggles, sacrifices, and resilience of those who fought to preserve it. Journey through the royal courts of the Achaemenid Empire, where kings upheld the sacred fire as a symbol of divine order. Witness the grandeur of the Sassanian era, when Zoroastrianism became the state religion, only to face devastation with the arrival of foreign conquerors. Travel with the Parsi diaspora, who carried the last surviving verses to distant shores, ensuring that the sacred flame of their faith never died. This book explores the Avesta's profound teachings-its call for truth (Asha), its vision of the eternal struggle between Ahura Mazda and Angra Mainyu, and its prophecy of the Frashokereti, the world's final renewal. It reveals the Avesta's influence on Judaism, Christianity, Islam, and even Hinduism, showing how its ideas crossed borders and shaped civilizations. Blending historical research, religious insight, and vivid storytelling, Guardians of the Sacred Flame illuminates the devotion of the Magi, the hidden meaning of ancient rituals, and the symbolic power of the sacred fire. It also addresses the challenges faced by modern Zoroastrians as they strive to keep their traditions alive in a rapidly changing world. For readers fascinated by ancient history, lost civilizations, and the enduring power of sacred knowledge, this is more than a book-it is a journey into the soul of one of humanity's oldest faiths. The pages of the Avesta may be incomplete, but its message burns as brightly as ever, a timeless reminder that the fight for truth and justice is eternal.
Autorenporträt
I'm Borna Ahadi, a writer drawn to the hidden stories behind the headlines and the forgotten voices of history. My passion lies in exploring the complexity of human character-whether in the corridors of power, on the battlefield, or in the quiet moments that shape destiny. I write to uncover truth, provoke thought, and connect the past to our present in a way that feels alive and urgent. Every book I create is a journey-not just through time, but into the heart of what it means to lead, to fail, and to rise again. If you're someone who questions, reflects, and craves deeper understanding, you're exactly who I write for.
