Book Description
Excerpt from Zarathushtra in the Gathas, and in the Greek and Roman Classics: With Notes on M. Darmesteter's Theory Regarding the Date of the Avesta, and an Appendix Every religion, wheresoever and whensoever it may have sprung up, has its history and its develop ment. No religion appears of a sudden as something perfectly novel and unexpected. The eye of the historical investigator who seeks to prove and understand every event in the history of mankind according to causes and effects, will perceive that every new form of religion is preceded by a period of time which we may call the period of preparation. At such a period there appear certain phenomena in the intellectual, moral, and economical life of the people which point to an imminent revolution otidess. As these phenomena become more numerous and more power ful the desire for a reformation of the whole system of life will become more and more powerful and vigorous, until, one might say, with a certain natural necessity, the personage appears who will be able to give an ex pression to the wishes and hopes of all the people, and thus turn out to be the founder of a new doctrine. To the contemporary this doctrine may in sooth appear as something quite unexpected and unheard of; because he cannot yet grasp the causes and effects of the events which he himself lives to behold. But the historical inquirer who is capable of doing it, will trace the phenomena which prepare such an important event.
