The Avesta Vendidad is a book written by James Darmesteter, originally published in 1880. It is a translation of the Vendidad, one of the sacred texts of the Zoroastrian religion. The Vendidad is a collection of laws and customs, as well as stories and legends, that were believed to have been revealed to the prophet Zarathustra by the god Ahura Mazda. Darmesteter’s translation provides an in-depth look at the Vendidad, including its history, structure, and content. He also includes extensive notes and commentary, offering insights into the meaning and significance of the text. The Avesta Vendidad is an important resource for anyone interested in the history and beliefs of the Zoroastrian religion, as well as for scholars of ancient religious texts. It provides a fascinating glimpse into the beliefs and practices of one of the world’s oldest religions, and sheds light on the cultural and religious context of ancient Persia.Ahura Mazda spake unto Spitama Zarathushtra, saying: I have made every land dear (to its people), even though it had no charms whatever in it: had I not made every land dear (to its people), even though it had no charms whatever in it, then the whole living world would have invaded the Airyana Vaeja.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
