On the Human Body as the Measure of the Material World
Chapter 28 focuses on the idea of the correspondence between the microcosm (gēhān ī kōdak) and macrocosm (gēhān ī wuzurg), also found in Plato’s Timaeus. The chapter lays out in detail the parallels between parts of the human body and entities in the world, in particular the heavenly world of the Amahraspands. While surviving Zoroastrian Middle Persian literature does not include a complete medical text, this chapter sheds light on Iranian Zoroastrian theories of medicine and physiology, many of which have precedents in Greek thought.
