The Book of Arda Viraf is a literary work that presents a vivid depiction of heaven and hell, written by Charles F. Horne. The book is inspired by the Persian religious text, the Zoroastrian Avesta, and follows the journey of Arda Viraf, a Zoroastrian priest, who is chosen to visit the afterlife and report back to the living about the state of the souls of the dead. The book is structured in a similar way to Dante's Divine Comedy, with Viraf travelling through different levels of heaven and hell, encountering various souls and experiencing their punishments or rewards. The book provides a unique insight into Zoroastrian beliefs about the afterlife and the struggle between good and evil. Horne's translation and interpretation of this ancient text make it accessible to modern readers and provide a fascinating glimpse into a lesser-known religious tradition.THIS 28 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Sacred Books and Early Literature of the East: Ancient Persia, by Charles F.
