""Lectures of the Arya"" is a book written by Albert Pike that contains a series of lectures on the ancient Aryan civilization. The lectures cover various topics such as the Aryan religion, philosophy, mythology, and social structure. Pike delves into the origins of the Aryan people and their impact on the world, including their influence on Hinduism, Buddhism, and other Eastern religions. The book also explores the Aryan language and its connection to other Indo-European languages. Overall, ""Lectures of the Arya"" provides a comprehensive overview of the Aryan civilization and its contributions to human history.Pike knew that our language, philosophy, religions, are traceable to the Aryans, Indo and Irano, and he has presented to our view, through the Lectures, the emigration and last division of the race, their country, character and manners, their language, their deities, and legends. �������Of the work, Pike himself said: �������Oldest literary monuments and records of human thought in the world and as the source and origin of the great philosophical doctrines of the world, but also, and far more, because they make known to us a sublime theosophy and purely philosophic faith believed in and understood by men of our own blood and lineage at a very remote period when they dwelt near the cradle of the race.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
