Reviews of 'The Mysteries of Mithras
The Pagan Belief That Shaped the Christian World', Inner Traditions, 2005:
"In his breakdown on the Mithraic liturgies Doctor Nabarz has successfully researched the intricate levels of the ritual and also heroically deciphered the language of the aforementioned iconography of Mithras to give us a first class series of ceremonies. . . . Whether the reader is an historian or even a practitioner of esoteric studies, this well presented work is a joy to read. I am delighted it now lives on my shelves." -Professor Roland Rotherham, Touchstone Magazine, Nov 2005

“A refreshing study of an often-neglected subject. From the conventional to the controversial, the broad scope of this book and its valuable contribution to Sufi, Mithraic, and Zoro-astrian studies gets to the very heart of the matter.”
KAREN RALLS, PH.D., author of The Templars and the Grail

Prediction Magazine, Oct 2005, Book of the month:
". . . brilliant and compelling . . . . A highly entertaining and informative read by a lucid writer. Highly recommended."


This is a delicious book in which we learn of a Mithraic connection to the Tarot, another connection to the Celtic gods and the druids, the significance of the three colors of the national flags of Indo-European countries, and the significance of the old Persian fairy tale of the Simorgh (a fabulous bird who helps the third son of a king fulfill a quest). There is even a correspondence to the Charge of the Goddess in Mithraic ritual.


If you want to read two books at the same time, pick up Reading Lolita in Tehran by Azar Nafisi (Random House, 2004)....

Review of The Persian 'Mar Nameh': The Zoroastrian 'Book of the Snake' Omens and Calendar, Twin Serpents Ltd, 2006:

"This is Payam Nabarz's follow-up to very well received Mysteries of Mithras. As one might expect he is extending further some of the cultic material available to initiates involved with that mythos. In this case he presents a short omen text from the Zoroastrian tradition." - Mandrake Speaks
