Moral Extracts from Zoroastrian Books for the Use of Teachers in Schools

In the year 1910, the Bombay Government entrusted to me the task of preparing from Indian sources a few moral extracts likely to be of use to teachers in Indian Schools in the course of giving moral instruction to their pupils. I had little difficulty in selecting from the ample materials available sufficient lessons to fill two small volumes. In order, however, that the materials, by including extracts from all great Indian religious works, Brahmanistic, Jain, Buddhist, Musalman, and Zoroastrian, alike, should be fully representative and incidentally illustrate the fundamental agreement, with regard to most questions of ethics, that prevails.
