Book excerpt: Self-Pahlavi student Zeke Kassock has created a modern rendition of Greater Bundahishn, also known as the Iranian Bundahishn, for the beginner Pahlavi student, as well as the Zoroastrian reader. Kassock has hand written the original text, and modernized the spelling with D.N. MacKenzie's A Concise Pahlavi Dictionary. It was then typed, retranscribed and translated using MacKenzie's dictionary, giving it new life from Tahmuras Dinshaji Anklesaria and Behramgore Tahmuras Anklesaria's versions of the Bundahishn (1908 & 1956 respectively). This rendition was created for the student learning Pahlavi/Middle Persian in aiding them in starting to read the original manuscript. It is presented in Pahlavi script, along with transcription in English letters and English translation. The Bundahishn is a cosmogony and a cosmology of Zoroastrian beliefs. It is also contains encyclopedia-like entries on a wide variety of topics, such as: philosophy, history, geography, genus species of plants and animals, etc.
