JARDUST AND VEDVYAS

If we take a detour and go outside Bharat Desh, we can observe the development of various philosophies and the interaction of many religious creeds.

In the ancient Iran, King Gastasp invited an Indian Brahman “Vyas” by name for “Shastrarth” (religious discourse) with his Raj Guru Jardust. The Parsi holy book “Shoteer” gives a detailed account of this interaction and praises Vyas as a very wise and learned scholar of the time.
