Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of Persian philosophical thought, tracing its evolution and exploring its connections with other major Asian philosophies, such as Hinduism and Chinese thought. The author examines the philosophical roots of Zoroastrianism, highlighting its similarities and differences with the Samkhyan system of Hinduism, and delving into the intricate interplay of ethical and philosophical concepts within the Zoroastrian tradition. From fire worship and star worship to the role of dualism and monism, the book reveals the rich tapestry of ideas that shaped Persian philosophy, highlighting the historical context of these ideas within the context of ancient empires and religious movements. The author explores the concept of the "ten Intelligences" and the "nine Spheres" which played an important role in Persian thought, placing these ideas within the wider context of the Gnostic movement, and comparing them to the Hindu concept of the Gunas. Through insightful comparisons and analyses, the book ultimately reveals how Persian philosophy, shaped by its own unique historical and cultural context, provided a significant contribution to the intellectual landscape of the world.
