<p>Across the high ranges of the HinduKush, the ancient mountain known in Avestan scripture as <i>Har&#257;B&#601;r&#601;zait&#299;</i> has long been treated as myth. This book reveals that the sacred summit is real - <b>FalakSar</b>, the towering peak of the UshuValley - and that its rediscovery transforms our understanding of Indo-Iranian cosmology.</p><p>Drawing on comparative ethnobotany, linguistic analysis, and ritual pharmacology, JessicaScottDunn identifies <b>Cathaedulis(khat)</b> as the original <b>Haoma/Soma</b>, the plant of divine inspiration described in both Zoroastrian and Vedic texts. Through this lens, the book traces a living continuum of sacred medicine linking the fire temples of ancientPersia, the trade routes ofGujarat, and the highland healing traditions ofAsiaandAfrica.</p><p>This revised edition reframes the Indo-Iranian world as a unified system of geography, ritual, and plant science - a synthesis that reconnects mythic landscape with historical reality and restores the forgotten heart of the world's oldest pharmacological tradition.</p>
