Cyrus the Great and Darius the Great

 

This video is a presentation on Cyrus the Great and Darius the Great made by Sam Billimoria, to  Pierce College in Woodland Hills, California on 11/21/2024 organized by their human rights department, This presentation traces a fascinating journey from the First Declaration of Human Rights in History made by Cyrus the Great in 539 BCE, right up to Mahatma Gandhi and President Obama, The faculty and students were surprised that such an old object (Cyrus’ Cylinder) has shaped the World civilization, freedom, and democracy, as a true Zoroastrian Legacy to the world. Coupled with the amazing accomplishments of Darius the Great in commerce, trade, business, mailing services, agriculture, and administration it is a unique Zoroastrian Legacy that has sustained Civilization for over the last two and a half millennia. Cyrus is mentioned 23 times in the Old Hebrew Bible, and Darius 25 times. They were divinely blessed to sustain humankind into posterity.
