“THE FAITHS IN THE WORLD”. A dictionary of all religions and their religious sects. by The Rev. James Gardner. This historical engraving depicts a Zoroastrian high priest, referred to as a “Guehre,” engaged in a sacred fire ritual. Dressed in traditional robes and a distinctive pointed headdress, he holds a ritual text in one hand and a bundle of sticks or reeds in the other. He stands reverently before a burning sacred fire, a central symbol in Zoroastrian worship. The artwork captures the solemnity and spiritual devotion of ancient Persian fire-worship practices, which trace back to one of the world’s oldest monotheistic religions.
