Synopsis

Excerpt from The Zend-Avesta and Eastern Religions: Comparative Legislations, Doctrines, and Rites of Parseeism, Brahmanism, and Buddhism; Bearing Upon Bible, Talmud, Gospel, Koran, Their Messiah-Ideals and Social Problems

In the middle of the seventh century, P. C., that once mighty people was subjugated and absorbed by the Islamic Arabians. Small remnants only have escaped the catastrophe and survived in some clefts, nooks and mountain-fastnesses of their own conquered and alienated country. Their comrades, after long disaster, reduced to a small remnant, have wandered away to Hindustan and settled there in and around Bombay, one of the great emporia of the Asiatic world. There they have joined the English masters, have learned their civilization and speech, their crafts and industries, and thus have become by far superior to the native Hindoos, bodily, mentally, and economically.

These highly interesting last debris of an ancient, vanquished race and creed have, besides, many more titles to our interest, our curiosity and our sympathy, viz: their sacred books. These have, apparently, nothing in common with the Hindoo popular mythology.
