    PERSIAN PHILOSOPHY

    Persian Philosophy developed a religion based on monotheism, the belief in


    one god. It was founded by the prophet Zoroaster, called Zarathustra in Old Iranian.
    Many of his ideas were collected in a series of poems called the Gathas, which
    became part of the religion's most sacred book, the Avesta. Due to a series of large-
    scale political and social changes such as the Arab and Mongol invasions of Persia,
    has initiated a wide spectrum of schools of thought. In general terms, these can be
    split between the Pre-Islamic Period and the Post-Islamic Period.
