Summary:

Disconcerting amalgamations of common points, divergences, and even symmetrical inversions, the religion of the Veda and that of the Avesta make up a set of complex representations, the comparison of which ideally allows to postulate the structure and reconstitute the progressive development. Obviously, the register of Indian representations and that of Iranian women have a common origin, and bear witness to the polemics starting the conceptual movement which will lead to Indian philosophy on the one hand, and Mazdean philosophy on the other. The existence of the Veda and the Avesta offers people in my discipline the unique and exciting opportunity to reconstruct a story from before history - the comparative method allows us - history of language and religious conceptions above all , of course, by the nature of the texts, but which does not go without giving some insight into more properly historical realities.
