“ The precepts and the laws of Zarathustra are preserved in the Avesta which you can read and make your own.
28. But you must know that words are naught till they are made alive; until the lessons they contain become a part of head and heart.
29. Now truth is one; but no one knows the truth until he is the truth. It is recorded in an ancient book.
30. Truth is the leavening power of God; it can transmute the all of life into itself; and when the all of life is truth, then man is truth. ”

13. In Zoan Abram taught his science of the stars, and in that sacred temple over there he learned the wisdom of the wise.
14. And when his lessons all were learned, he took his kindred and his flocks and herds and journeyed back to Canaan, and in the plains of Mamre pitched his tent, and there he lived, and there he died. ”
