Homage to you, righteous Gāthās. 28.1. With outstretched hands, in homage, I first ask this of you, Mazda, through the Bounteous Spirit, for help: all deeds through Asha, and the wisdom of Vohu Manah, by which you may satisfy the soul of the Cow as well. (twice) With outstretched hands, in homage, I first ask this of you, Mazda, through the Bounteous Spirit, for help: all deeds through Asha, and the wisdom of Vohu Manah, by which you may satisfy the soul of the Cow as well. 28.2. I who would approach you, Ahura Mazda, with Vohu Manah—grant me the gifts of both existences, the bodily and that of mind, those attained through Asha, by which one may place your supporter in well-being. 28.3. I who would praise you through Asha, and Vohu Manah beyond all others, and Mazda Ahura—for whom enduring Dominion is increased by Ārmaiti: come at my call, bringing help. 28.4. I who, knowing, shall set my soul to guard with Vohu Manah, together with the rewards of deeds, for as long as I have power and strength, shall seek after the teachings of Asha. 28.5. Through Asha, when shall I see you, knowing Vohu Manah, and the path to the mightiest Ahura Mazda—to attentive hearing? Through this mantra, greatest of all, may we turn the predators aside with the tongue. 28.6. Come with Vohu Manah; give, through Asha, the gift of long life. Through your true words, Mazda, give Zarathustra forceful aid—and to us, Ahura—by which we may overcome the hostilities of the hostile. 28.7. Give, through Asha, that reward—the attainments of Vohu Manah. Give, through Ārmaiti, vitality to Vīštāspa and to me. Grant, Mazda, that through your Dominion we may hear your mantras far and wide. 28.8. You, the Best, I ask for the best: in accord with Best Asha, Ahura. I ask it as a boon for the man Frašaoštra and for me, and for those to whom you may grant it for the whole span of life in the radiance of Vohu Manah. 28.9. By these petitions may we not anger you, Ahura Mazda, nor Asha, nor Best Mind—we who stand arrayed in the offering of praises. You are the swiftest bringers of vigor and the Dominion of life-giving power. 28.10. Those whom you know through Asha and through the laws of Vohu Manah to be worthy, Mazda Ahura—fulfill their desire with abundant attainments. For I know that effective words of prayer directed to you do not go unanswered. 28.11. You who guard Asha and Vohu Manah for all time, you, Mazda Ahura, teach me plainly from your own mouth, from your Spirit, by what means the first existence came to be. 28.12. With outstretched hands, in homage, I first ask this of you, Mazda, through the Bounteous Spirit, for help: all deeds through Asha, and the wisdom of Vohu Manah, by which you may satisfy the soul of the Cow as well. (..) With outstretched hands, in homage, I first ask this of you, Mazda, through the Bounteous Spirit, for help: all deeds through Asha, and the wisdom of Vohu Manah, by which you may satisfy the soul of the Cow as well. As the Ahū is to be chosen, so is the Ratu, by virtue of Asha itself. The deeds of Vohu Manah are assigned to Mazda, and Dominion over existence to Ahura, whom they appoint as pastor for the poor.

Radiant happiness is, radiant happiness belongs to the one who embodies Asha for Best Asha. Asha is good; it is best. Radiant happiness is, radiant happiness belongs to the one who embodies Asha for Best Asha. We worship the Ahyāsā-hāiti. Whose beings Mazda Ahura knows, according to Asha, to be better in worship—those, both male and female, we worship. ### Yasna 29 — Ahunavaiti Gatha 29.1. To you the soul of the Cow cried her lament: “For whom did you fashion me? Who shaped me? Fury and violence, bondage, oppression, and brute force hold me fast. I have no pastor other than you; therefore reveal to me good pasturage.” 29.2. Then the Fashioner of the Cow asked Asha: “What Ratu have you for the Cow, that you, ruling together, may give her care and a cattle-tending pastor? Whom do you will as Ahura for her, one who may drive back Fury together with the deceitful?” 29.3. Asha answered him: “There is no unhostile lord known to the Cow. Among these, no one is known who understands what moves the lowly by right. Of beings, that one is strongest to whom I may come when called.” 29.4. Mazda is the best rememberer of the judgments already enacted by daēvas and mortals, and of those that shall be enacted hereafter. He, Ahura, is the discerner; so let it be for us as he wills. 29.5. Then with our souls and with outstretched hands we two prayed to Ahura—my soul and the Cow’s—when we urged Mazda with questions: “No passage forward is found for the truthful, nor for the cattle-tender among the deceitful.” 29.6. Then Ahura Mazda, knowing the designs in his discernment, spoke: “No Ahū has been found by the world, nor any Ratu according to Asha. For the Fashioner fashioned you for the cattle-tender and the herdsman.” 29.7. In accord with Asha, Ahura Mazda fashioned for the Cow this mantra of milk and fat, he, the Bounteous One, for the needy through his teaching: “Who is there for you through Vohu Manah, who may give these things to mortals?” 29.8. “This one alone has been found here for me, who has listened to our teachings: Zarathustra Spitāma. He wills, Mazda, to make our message and Asha heard abroad. May I give him sweetness of speech.” 29.9. Then the soul of the Cow lamented: “Must I accept the powerless word of a feeble man as my support, when I want one who commands with strength? When will there be one who gives him strong-handed aid?” 29.10. You, Ahura, give them strength through Asha and Dominion through Vohu Manah, by which one may establish good dwelling and peace. I, too, Mazda, recognize you as the first to possess these. 29.11. Where are Asha and Vohu Manah, where Dominion? Now acknowledge me, Mazda—you—with insight, for the great fellowship. Ahura, now come down to us with the gift of those who are like you. 29.12. With outstretched hands, in homage, I first ask this of you, Mazda, through the Bounteous Spirit, for help: all deeds through Asha, and the wisdom of Vohu Manah, by which you may satisfy the soul of the Cow as well. (..) With outstretched hands, in homage, I first ask this of you, Mazda, through the Bounteous Spirit, for help: all deeds through Asha, and the wisdom of Vohu Manah, by which you may satisfy the soul of the Cow as well.

Whose beings Mazda Ahura knows, according to Asha, to be better in worship—those, both male and female, we worship. ### Yasna 30 — Ahunavaiti Gatha 30.1. Now I shall proclaim to those who seek the things even the knowing should hear: praises for Ahura and acts of worship through Vohu Manah, and the good reflections of Asha, and those joys that shall be seen in the lights. 30.2. Hear with your ears what is best; with a lucid mind look upon it. Each man, each woman, choose between the two courses for your own body. Before the great event, awaken to this teaching of ours. 30.3. Now the two Spirits at the beginning, twins who were heard in a vision, are the Better and the Bad—in thought, in word, in deed. Between them the beneficent discerned rightly, but not the maleficent. 30.4. And when these two Spirits came together, at the beginning they established life and nonlife, and how existence shall be at the end: the worst existence for the deceitful, but Best Mind for the righteous. 30.5. Of these two Spirits, the deceitful one chose to accomplish what is worst; but the most bounteous Spirit chose Asha—he who clothes himself in the hardest stones—and so did those who, with truthful deeds, gladly satisfy Ahura Mazda. 30.6. Between these the daēvas did not discern rightly, for delusion came over them as they deliberated. Since they chose Worst Mind, they rushed together into Fury, by which mortals afflict existence. 30.7. But to that one came Dominion, with Vohu Manah and Asha; and Ārmaiti gave enduring form and breath. Among these, he shall be yours, as the first in the testing by metal. 30.8. And when retribution for their offenses comes, then, Mazda, through Vohu Manah, Dominion shall be found for you—for those, Ahura, who deliver Deceit into the hands of Asha. 30.9. And may we be among those who make this existence fresh and new. Mazda and the Ahuras, come here with protection and with Asha, so that our minds may become one where insight stands in doubt. 30.10. Then indeed the destruction of Deceit’s flourishing shall come down; and the swiftest shall be yoked to the good dwelling of Vohu Manah, of Mazda, and of Asha—those who win a good name. 30.11. When you understand those ordinances that Mazda has given to mortals—both happiness and suffering, the long harm for the deceitful and saving power for the righteous—then through these radiant happiness shall follow. 30.12. With outstretched hands, in homage, I first ask this of you, Mazda, through the Bounteous Spirit, for help: all deeds through Asha, and the wisdom of Vohu Manah, by which you may satisfy the soul of the Cow as well.

Keeping these ordinances in mind, we proclaim words unheard by those who, through the ordinances of Deceit, destroy the living world of Asha—but best for those who are faithful to Mazda. 31.2. If by these words the better path is not plainly visible to the soul, I shall come before you all as the judge whom Ahura Mazda knows for the two factions, so that we may live according to Asha. 31.3. That satisfaction which you give through Spirit and fire, and through Asha, to both factions, and the ordinance for those with understanding—tell that to us who would know, Mazda, with the speech of your mouth, so that I may bring all the living to choose. 31.4. When Asha is invoked—and Mazda and the Ahuras, and Reward and Ārmaiti—then, through Best Mind, I shall seek mighty Dominion for myself, through whose increase we may overcome Deceit. 31.5. Tell me, so that I may discern what is better for me, and know what has been given through Asha. Let me keep in mind, through Vohu Manah, what must be remembered—what shall be and what shall not be, Mazda Ahura. 31.6. The best shall belong to the one who, knowing, tells me the true mantra of the wholeness and immortality of Asha. To Mazda belongs such Dominion as shall increase for him through Vohu Manah. 31.7. He who first conceived that the radiant spaces should be filled with lights—he, through wisdom, is the creator of Asha, by which he upholds Best Mind. By your Spirit, Mazda, make these grow—you who even now remain the same, Ahura. 31.8. Then I recognized you first, Mazda, in my mind, as the beginning and father of Vohu Manah, when I grasped you with my eyes as the true creator of Asha, the Ahura of existence in its deeds. 31.9. Yours was Armaiti; yours the Fashioner of the Cow, the insight of Mainyu, Ahura Mazda—when you gave her paths, whether toward the herdsman or toward one who would be no herdsman. 31.10. Then, from these, she chose for herself the herdsman, the cattle-tending lord of Asha, the fosterer of Vohu Manah. Not the non-herdsman, Mazda, though he shared in eloquent speech. 31.11. Since in the beginning, Mazda, you fashioned for us living beings and Daēnās through your Mind, and understanding with life-breath embodied; since you made actions and teachings, so that one may make one’s choices freely— 31.12. There each raises a voice, false-speaking or truth-speaking, knowing or unknowing, according to heart and mind. Armaiti, following close, questions the two Mainyus where uncertainty remains. 31.13. Whatever open matters one seeks to know, Mazda, and whatever secret matters; or if one incurs the greatest penalty for a small offense—you watch all these with radiant eyes, beholding them through Asha. 31.14. These things I ask you, Ahura: what now comes, and what shall come; what recompenses are appointed from the gifts for the follower of Asha, and what, Mazda, for the deceitful—how these shall stand at the completion. 31.15. This I ask: what penalty is for the one who breeds dominion for the deceitful, for one of evil action, Ahura—who finds no livelihood except by harming the herdsman’s livestock and people, though they have done him no deceit? 31.16. This I ask: how shall that generous one, seeking dominion over house, settlement, or land, further it through Asha, becoming like you, Ahura Mazda? When shall he be, and with what actions? 31.17. Which chooses the greater good—the follower of Asha or the deceitful? Let the knowing speak to the knowing. Let the unknowing no longer deceive. Be for us, Ahura Mazda, the revealer of Vohu Manah. 31.18. Let none of you listen to the formulas and teachings of the deceitful, for he will deliver house, clan, settlement, and land to misery and destruction. Therefore cut them down with the weapon. 31.19. Let one listen who has conceived Asha—the knowing healer of existence, Ahura, commanding his tongue at will for words rightly spoken. By your red fire, Mazda, let the destinies of the two parties be decided for the good. 31.20. Whoever comes to the follower of Asha shall have splendor hereafter. But long life in darkness, foul food, and cries of woe—to such an existence shall your own actions and your Daēnā lead you, deceitful ones. 31.21. Ahura Mazda grants fullness and immortality, abundance through Asha, independence in Dominion, and the enduring strength of Vohu Manah to the one who is his ally in Mainyu and in actions. 31.22. These things are clear to the generous one, to the one who understands through Vohu Manah. By Dominion he upholds Asha in word and action. He shall be your most vigorous servant, Ahura Mazda. 31.23.

His household seeks this, his community together with the fellowship; even the daēvas, in my mind, seek the favor of Ahura Mazda. We would be your messengers: restrain those who are hostile to you. 32.2. To them Ahura Mazda, united with Vohu Manah, answered from his Dominion, as Asha, the good companion, flourished: “We choose your beneficent, good Armaiti. May she be ours.” 32.3. But you daēvas, all of you, are the seed of an Evil Mind; and whoever worships you is born of the Lie and of arrogance. By your actions of deception you have become notorious throughout the seventh region of the earth. 32.4. For you have ordained those things by which mortals, doing the worst, prosper as favorites of the daēvas, recoiling from Vohu Manah, straying from the insight of Ahura Mazda and from Asha. 32.5. By these you defraud mortals of good life and immortality, since the Evil Mainyu, together with the daēvas and Evil Mind, teaches you through evil action and speech, declaring the deceitful to be sovereign. 32.6. Though the sinner prospers through many offenses for which he is renowned—if, Ahura, I keep these in remembrance as they are, you know best through Vohu Manah. In your Dominion, Mazda, I am aware of the judgments of Asha. 32.7. None of these offenses has a knowing champion who can stand openly for the things declared in fiery trial—yet you, Ahura Mazda, know best the final account of these. 32.8. Among these offenses is heard even that of Yima, son of Vīvaŋhuš, who, wishing to satisfy our mortals, gave them portions of the Cow to eat. At your discernment, Mazda, I too shall be reckoned among these. 32.9. The teacher of evil corrupts the teaching; by his pronouncements he destroys the insight of life. He robs me of the cherished, true possession of Vohu Manah. With these words of my Mainyu I lament to you, Mazda, and to Asha. 32.10. That man corrupts the teaching who declares the Cow and the sun the worst things to behold with the eyes; who sets the righteous among the deceitful; who lays waste the pastures; who raises his weapon against the follower of Asha. 32.11. These indeed destroy my livelihood: those who esteem the deceitful as magnates; who deprive mistresses and masters of their inheritance; who, Mazda, turn the deceitful away from the best Mind of the follower of Asha. 32.12. Those whose teaching turns mortals away from the best action—Mazda has called them evil: those who ruin the life of the Cow with cries of delight; the Karapans, through whom Grə̄hma chooses Dominion over Asha and seeks the Lie. 32.13. The Dominion Grə̄hma desired has bound him in the dwelling of the worst Mind, together with the destroyers of this existence. And he who, Mazda, complains at the desire for your messenger’s formula—which shall keep them from seeing Asha. 32.14. For this purpose the Karapan’s insight and even the Kavi’s has long been fixed: whenever they approach the deceitful for aid, and whenever it is said that the Cow must be killed, so that she may kindle help that keeps death far away. 32.15. By these shall the Karapans and Kavis be destroyed, together with those whom they place in power over life against their will. These two shall be borne into the dwelling of Vohu Manah. 32.16. Complete indeed is this, and the best: the teaching proclaimed for the knowing. Rule them, Ahura Mazda—those who threaten me with enmity. Let me restrain the persecutions of the deceitful and deliver them to destruction. 32.17.

Just as it is now to be carried out, according to the laws of the first existence, the Judge shall judge by actions most straightly—the deceitful and the follower of Asha alike—and whoever mixes in himself what is false and what is straight. 33.2. But whoever works evil against the deceitful, by word or by Mind or with both hands, or turns his dependent toward the good—they fulfill your desire, to the satisfaction of Ahura Mazda. 33.3. Whoever is best toward the follower of Asha—whether kinsman, member of the community, fellow of the fellowship, or one who diligently tends the Cow, Ahura—he shall stand in the pasture of Asha and Vohu Manah. 33.4. I who worship you, Mazda, would drive from the household disobedience and Evil Mind; from the community, contempt; from the fellowship, the Lie nearest at hand; and from the pasture of the Cow, the worst counselor. 33.5. I invoke your all-surpassing Sraosha, that I may reach the prize: long life, Dominion through Vohu Manah, and the straight paths of Asha on which Ahura Mazda dwells. 33.6.

Come to me—come, you best ones, Mazda, manifestly and in person, with Asha and Vohu Manah—so that I may be heard beyond the fellowship. Let the offerings of reverence be manifest among us. 33.8. Make known to me the purposes I shall pursue through Vohu Manah. Mazda, the worship of one like you; and the words of praise through Asha. Grant your gifts of immortality, and the offerings of fullness through enduring vigor. 33.9. Mazda, through your most beneficent Mainyu, bring to me the power of discernment that advances Asha, with the bliss of wisdom and the best Mind—for this aid, through which souls travel together. 33.10. All good lives that have been, that are, and that shall be—Mazda, distribute them in your favor. Through Vohu Manah let the body flourish in radiance, through Dominion and Asha. 33.11.

The deeds, the words, the acts of worship through which you establish immortality and Asha for them, Mazda, and Khshathra together with wholeness—these offerings, Ahura, are set in your hand by us in foremost abundance. 34.2. And all these have been given you through mind and through Vohu Manah, and through the life-giving deeds of the man whose soul keeps company with Asha. Around your dwelling, Mazda, let them stand in praise, celebrated with songs. 34.3. Then to you, Ahura, and to Asha, with reverence I bring an offering: all the living creations within Khshathra, those Vohu Manah has fostered. For I mean to approach you, Mazda, with all the blessings of the beneficent. 34.4. Then, Ahura, we seek your fire—strong through Asha, swift and mighty in its aid, a manifest help to the one who supports it, but, Mazda, with the powers of its hands, a visible wound to the hostile. 34.5. What is your Khshathra? What is your power, Mazda, for the deed through which I might be united with you—through Asha and Vohu Manah—to protect the poor? We proclaim you above all, above the daēvas, the predatory creatures, and mortal men. 34.6. If you truly are thus, Mazda, with Asha and Vohu Manah, then give me a sign of it through all the turning-points of this existence, so that, worshiping and praising you, I may come before you with rejoicing. 34.7. Where are your righteous ones, Mazda, who possess the insight of Vohu Manah? Though deprived of prosperity and even of gain, I shall awaken understanding with inspired words. I know no other than you; therefore protect us through Asha. 34.8. For by those deeds they frighten us—those among whom many are marked as assailants—because of the powerful pride of those who are weak, because of their enmity toward your covenant, Mazda. Vohu Manah is far from those who do not keep Asha in mind. 34.9. Those who, though knowing, abandon through evil deeds Spenta Armaiti, the cherished one belonging to you, Mazda, because they lack Vohu Manah—from them Asha withdraws far away, as wild beasts withdraw from us. 34.10. The wise one has proclaimed that the deeds of Vohu Manah are to be grasped, and Spenta Armaiti the beneficent, knowing the true foundations of Asha. All these, Ahura Mazda, are messengers within your Khshathra. 34.11. Both wholeness and immortality are yours for nourishment; through the Khshathra of Vohu Manah, Armaiti grows together with Asha. Through these, through enduring life and strength, Mazda, you are the foe of the foes. 34.12. What is your ordinance? What do you desire? What praise, or what act of worship, is to be heard? Proclaim it, Mazda, so that the rewards of your ordinances may be discerned. Teach us through Asha the well-traveled paths of Vohu Manah. 34.13. That path, Ahura, which you told me belongs to Vohu Manah—the path of the daēnā of the benefactors, along which a deed well made flourishes through Asha: the reward promised to the beneficent, Mazda, whose giver you are. 34.14. For that desirable reward, Mazda, you have given to embodied life: the deeds of Vohu Manah, for those who labor in the working-place of the Cow. By your good understanding, Ahura, they advance the works of wisdom through Asha. 34.15. Mazda, now declare to me the best words and deeds, so that through Vohu Manah and Asha I may praise them.

May that man reach what is better than good—the one who teaches us the straight paths of benefit in this embodied existence and in the existence of mind: the true dwellings where Ahura abides, righteous, like you, well-knowing, Spenta Mazda. 43.4. Then shall I recognize you as forceful and life-giving, Mazda, when you hold in those hands the rewards you give to the follower of the Lie and to the follower of Asha—through the heat of your fire, strong with Asha—when the might of Vohu Manah comes to me. 43.5. Then I recognized you as life-giving, Mazda Ahura, when I first saw you at the birth of existence; when you appointed deeds and words to bear their reward—evil reward for evil, good reward for good—through your skill, at creation’s final turning. 43.6. At that turning where you come with Spenta Mainyu, Mazda, with Khshathra and Vohu Manah, there the living world shall prosper through deeds of Asha. For them Armaiti shall proclaim the judgments of your wisdom, which no one can deceive. 43.7. Then I recognized you as life-giving, Mazda Ahura, when Vohu Manah came around me and asked me: “Who are you? Whose are you? By what sign will you mark the days for questioning, concerning your herds and your own person?” 43.8. Then first I said to him: “I am Zarathushtra. So far as I am able, a true enemy to the follower of the Lie, but to the follower of Asha I would be a powerful ally, so that I may gain the wishes of Khshathra, as long as I praise and hymn you, Mazda.” 43.9. Then I recognized you as life-giving, Mazda Ahura, when Vohu Manah came around me. To his question, “For whose sake do you wish to discern?” I answered: “For your fire I shall offer the gift of reverence to Asha, as long as I am able and keep it in mind.” 43.10. Then show me Asha, which I invoke. Accompanied by Armaiti, ask us what must be asked concerning those of your company. For what is asked of you by the mighty must be asked with power, when one who rules through you can make the furious powerless. 43.11. Then I recognized you as life-giving, Mazda Ahura, when Vohu Manah came around me—when I was first instructed by your words. My trust among mortals brought me suffering, yet I shall do what you told me is best. 43.12. And when you tell me, “You have come to know Asha,” then do not command me with words unheard: rise before Obedience comes to me, accompanied by reward rich in splendor—the reward that shall distribute benefit among the contending sides. 43.13. Then I recognized you as life-giving, Mazda Ahura, when Vohu Manah came around me, so that I might discern the goal of desire. Give me that long span of life which no one has dared ask of you—the chosen existence declared within your Khshathra. 43.14. As a knowing man gives to a friend who seeks it, so give me, Mazda, your sustaining insight: through your Khshathra, the power arising from Asha, so that I may rise and go forth with the leaders of your proclamation, together with all who remember your sacred words. 43.15. Then I recognized you as life-giving, Mazda Ahura, when Vohu Manah came around me. The best insight taught me in silence: “Let no man seek to satisfy the many followers of the Lie.” For they count all followers of Asha as enemies. 43.16. Therefore Zarathushtra chooses that Mainyu, Ahura Mazda, which is yours and most life-giving. May embodied Asha be strong with enduring life; may Armaiti dwell in Khshathra, radiant as the sun; may she grant reward through deeds joined with Vohu Manah. 43.17. Radiance to that one through whom radiance may come to anyone. May Ahura Mazda, ruling at will, grant it. I seek from you enduring life and strength: through Armaiti grant me power to uphold Asha, the splendor of reward, and the life of Vohu Manah. (..) Radiance to that one through whom radiance may come to anyone. May Ahura Mazda, ruling at will, grant it. I seek from you enduring life and strength: through Armaiti grant me power to uphold Asha, the splendor of reward, and the life of Vohu Manah. Asha is good; it is best. Radiance is; radiance belongs to the one whose Asha is for best Asha. (..) Asha is good; it is best. Radiance is; radiance belongs to the one whose Asha is for best Asha. Asha is good; it is best. Radiance is; radiance belongs to the one whose Asha is for best Asha. We worship the third chapter of the Ushtavaiti. Whose among beings Ahura Mazda knows as good in worship by virtue of Asha—these, both male and female, we worship. ### Yasna 44 — Ushtavaiti Gatha 44.1. This I ask you—tell me truly, Ahura: how shall my reverence be offered to one like you? Mazda, may one such as you declare it to a friend such as me. Through Asha, may a friend give us friendly aid, so that Vohu Manah may come to us. 44.2. This I ask you—tell me truly, Ahura: how may one win the foremost good of the best existence? The life-giving one who upholds it through Asha is the healer of existence for all, an ally understanding the worlds, Mazda. 44.3. This I ask you—tell me truly, Ahura: who by generation was the first father of Asha? Who set the path of the sun and stars? Through whom does the moon wax, and through whom wane? These things, Mazda, and others, I desire to know. 44.4. This I ask you—tell me truly, Ahura: who held the earth below and the skies from falling? Who made the waters and the plants? Who yoked swift motion to wind and clouds? Who, Mazda, is the fashioner of Vohu Manah? 44.5. This I ask you—tell me truly, Ahura: what master craftsman made light and darkness? What master craftsman made sleep and waking? Who made dawn, noon, and night, which call the mindful person to his purpose? 44.6. This I ask you—tell me truly, Ahura, whether what I now proclaim is indeed true: does Armaiti, through deeds, strengthen Asha? For whom have you fashioned Khshathra through Vohu Manah? For whom did you shape the joy-bringing Cow, rich in pasture? 44.7. This I ask you—tell me truly, Ahura: Who fashioned the blessings together with Khshathra and Armaiti? Who made the son mindful of the father in discernment? By these questions I seek to recognize you, Ahura Mazda, as the creator of all through Spenta Mainyu. 44.8. This I ask you—tell me truly, Ahura: so that I may keep in mind the teachings that are yours, Mazda, and the words I seek through Vohu Manah, and so that through Asha I may rightly understand existence—by what shall my soul come to delight and reach that? 44.9. This I ask you—tell me truly, Ahura: How shall I bring to flourishing that Daena which the beneficent master of Khshathra taught me as a saving vision—the master dwelling with you, Mazda, in the same abode with Asha, vigorous through Vohu Manah? 44.10. This I ask you—tell me truly, Ahura: that Daena which is best for those who exist, which, moving with Asha, shall make my living world thrive, and through the words and deeds of Armaiti shall set things rightly through discerning insight—toward you rise my desires, Mazda. 44.11. This I ask you—tell me truly, Ahura: How shall Armaiti come to those, Mazda, for whom your Daena is proclaimed? I was established by you as the first among these. All others I regard with the hostile spirit’s hatred. 44.12. This I ask you—tell me truly, Ahura: Who is aligned with Asha among those whom I question, and who with the Lie? Is the hostile one this man, or is that man hostile—the liar who strives against your saving power? Why is he not regarded as the hostile one? 44.13. This I ask you—tell me truly, Ahura: How shall we drive the Lie away from us, down and away—to those who, swollen with refusal to hear, do not strive to join Asha and do not take delight in the counsel of Vohu Manah? 44.14. This I ask you—tell me truly, Ahura: How shall I deliver the Lie into Asha’s hands, to crush her through the mighty formulas of your teaching, to work a violent breaking among the lie-bound, Mazda, and bring anguish and ruin upon them? 44.15. This I ask you—tell me truly, Ahura: If through Asha you hold protection and mastery for me, when the two opposing hosts come together in conflict under those bonds you, Mazda, have established—where, and to whom, will you grant victory? 44.16. This I ask you—tell me truly, Ahura: Who, through your teaching, is the victory-winner who protects all who live? Reveal clearly to me the healer of existence, the one appointed to judge. Let Sraosha come to him through Vohu Manah, Mazda—to whomever you wish, whoever he may be. 44.17. This I ask you—tell me truly, Ahura: How, Mazda, may I reach the goal with you and attain full union with you, so that my voice may be powerful, awakening through Haurvatat and Ameretat by that formula which offers abundance in accord with Asha? 44.18. This I ask you—tell me truly, Ahura: How through Asha shall I win that reward—ten mares with a stallion and a camel—which, Mazda, shall come to me together with Haurvatat and Ameretat, as you have established them for these? 44.19. This I ask you—tell me truly, Ahura: The one who will not give that reward to the winner who, as an upright-speaking man, earns it for himself—what shall be his first recompense for this? I know the final one that shall be his. 44.20. Were the Daevas ever good rulers, Mazda? I ask this of those who take counsel on their behalf—those through whom the Karapan and the Usij give the cow over to Wrath, and through whom the Kavi makes it cry out in lamentation. They do not tend her through Asha, to make the pasture thrive. 44.21. Radiance for the one through whom radiance comes to anyone at all. Ruling at will, may Ahura Mazda grant it. Enduring strength, together with life-force, I desire from you; I desire to uphold Asha. Give me this, Armaiti: the rewards of splendor, a life in Vohu Manah. (repeat) Radiance for the one through whom radiance comes to anyone at all. Ruling at will, may Ahura Mazda grant it. Enduring strength, together with life-force, I desire from you; I desire to uphold Asha. Give me this, Armaiti: the rewards of splendor, a life in Vohu Manah. Asha is good; it is best. Radiance is; radiance for the one whose Asha is for the Best Asha. (repeat) Asha is good; it is best. Radiance is; radiance for the one whose Asha is for the Best Asha. Asha is good; it is best. Radiance is; radiance for the one whose Asha is for the Best Asha. We worship the “This I Ask You” chapter. We worship those beings, male and female, whom Ahura Mazda knows to be better for worship in accordance with Asha. ### Yasna 45 — Ushtavaiti Gatha 45.1. Now I shall proclaim—now listen, now hear, you who come from near and you who seek from far. Now mark all this clearly in your minds. Let not the teacher of evil destroy existence a second time, the lie-bound man, chosen by his evil preference and his tongue. 45.2. Now I shall proclaim the two primal Mainyus of existence. Of these two, the more beneficent spoke thus to the hostile one: “Neither our thoughts, nor teachings, nor understandings; neither our choices, nor words, nor deeds; neither our Daenas, nor our souls agree.” 45.3. Now I shall proclaim the first teaching of this existence, which Ahura Mazda, knowing, declared to me. Those of you who will not enact this formula as I shall conceive and proclaim it—to them the end of existence will be ruin. 45.4. Now I shall proclaim what is best in this existence. Through Asha I know Mazda, who created it, to be the father of active Vohu Manah. His daughter is Armaiti, rich in good deeds. Ahura, who beholds all, is not to be deceived. 45.5. Now I shall proclaim what the Most Beneficent told me—the word best for mortals to hear: “Those who grant me Sraosha and reverence shall come to Haurvatat and Ameretat through the deeds of Vohu Manah”—so spoke Ahura Mazda. 45.6. Now I shall proclaim the greatest of all, praising through Asha the beneficent one whom those who exist call Spenta Mainyu. Let Ahura Mazda hear. In his praise I questioned him through Vohu Manah. Through his insight may he teach me what is best. 45.7. Those who live, those who have lived, and those who shall live seek the saving powers of his abundance. In Ameretat the soul of the one aligned with Asha shall flourish, but lasting anguish shall be the lie-bound man’s. By his Khshathra Ahura Mazda established these things. 45.8. With praises and reverence I shall turn toward him, for now I have seen him with my own eyes: Ahura Mazda, knowing through Asha, through the deed and the word of Vohu Manah. We shall establish his praises in the House of Song. 45.9. We seek to satisfy him together with Vohu Manah—he who, by his will, made prosperity and adversity for us. May Ahura Mazda, through Khshathra, grant vigor to our communities, so that our herds and people may thrive through the good discernment of Asha and Vohu Manah. 45.10. We seek to magnify him with the worship of Armaiti—him who is renowned in the community as Ahura Mazda, since through Asha and Vohu Manah he assigned Haurvatat and Ameretat to his Khshathra, and strength and enduring life-force to his dwelling. 45.11. Whoever hereafter scorns the Daevas and the mortals who scorn him—all others except the one who thinks of him as rightful—that one, through his beneficent Daena, is ally, brother, or father to the future savior of the house, Ahura Mazda. 45.12. Radiance for the one through whom radiance comes to anyone at all. Ruling at will, may Ahura Mazda grant it. Enduring strength, together with life-force, I desire from you; I desire to uphold Asha. Give me this, Armaiti: the rewards of splendor, a life in Vohu Manah. (repeat) Radiance for the one through whom radiance comes to anyone at all. Ruling at will, may Ahura Mazda grant it. Enduring strength, together with life-force, I desire from you; I desire to uphold Asha. Give me this, Armaiti: the rewards of splendor, a life in Vohu Manah. Asha is good; it is best. Radiance is; radiance for the one whose Asha is for the Best Asha. (repeat) Asha is good; it is best. Radiance is; radiance for the one whose Asha is for the Best Asha. Asha is good; it is best. Radiance is; radiance for the one whose Asha is for the Best Asha. We worship the “Now I Shall Proclaim” chapter. We worship those beings, male and female, whom Ahura Mazda knows to be better for worship in accordance with Asha. ### Yasna 46 — Ushtavaiti Gatha 46.1. To what land shall I go to escape? Where shall I go to escape? They cast me out from family and community. The fellowship I serve gives me no satisfaction, nor do the lie-bound rulers of the land. How, Mazda Ahura, shall I satisfy you? 46.2. I know why I am powerless, Mazda: I possess few herds, and I have few men. I lament before you. Look upon it, Ahura. Grant me the support that one friend gives a friend. Through Asha, teach me the powerful aid of Vohu Manah. 46.3. When, Mazda, will the dawns rise—days advancing to sustain existence through Asha—when the understandings of the future saviors shall come forward with powerful teachings? To whom will Vohu Manah come for aid? For myself, Ahura, I choose you as teacher. 46.4. The lie-bound man keeps those who bear Asha’s cattle from advancing—whether through district or province—he, hard to challenge and entrenched by his own deeds. Whoever deprives him of power or life, Mazda, shall go before and lead those cattle into the pastures of good understanding. 46.5. If a person of power receives a petitioner who comes under the bonds of hospitality, or receives him through good lineage and under agreements, living in accordance with right judgment—if, aligned with Asha, he recognizes the lie-bound man as such, he shall declare it to his household and kindred, Mazda Ahura, so that they may keep him from destruction. 46.6. But if an able man does not come to that petitioner, he himself shall enter the bonds of the Lie. For lie-bound is the one who is best to the lie-bound, and aligned with Asha is the one who is dear to the one aligned with Asha—since, Ahura, you established the primal Daenas. 46.7. Whom, Mazda, have you appointed as protector for one like me, when the lie-bound man sets himself to injure me? Who else but your Fire and your Manah, through whose deeds Asha has flourished, Ahura? Proclaim that teaching fully to me, for my Daena. 46.8. Whoever seeks to place my living world in harm—may no harm from his deeds come upon me. Let it recoil upon him in hostility and keep him from good life, not from wretched life—through hostility, Mazda. 46.9. Who is the man who, as the first, recognized me as worthy, since by deed we invoke you as the greatest—Spenta Ahura, aligned with Asha? What the Fashioner of the Cow declared to you through Asha and for Asha—this I wish to hear from you through Vohu Manah. 46.10. Whoever—man or woman—shall give me, Mazda Ahura, what you know to be best in existence: the reward for Asha and Khshathra through Vohu Manah—and all whom I shall lead in praise of those like you—with all of them I shall cross the Chinvat Bridge. 46.11. Karapans and Kavis yoke mortals to their dominions, through evil deeds, to destroy existence. Their own soul and their own Daena shall torment them when they reach the Chinvat Bridge, to remain forever as guests in the House of the Lie. 46.12. When Asha arose among the descendants and lineage of Turanian Fryana, through the vigor of Armaiti his living world flourished. Then Vohu Manah brought them together. Ahura Mazda teaches them for aid. 46.13. The mortal who satisfies Spitama Zarathushtra with generous gifts shall be renowned as upright. Ahura Mazda shall grant him existence, and through Vohu Manah shall make his living world thrive. Through Asha we regard him as a good companion. 46.14. “Zarathushtra, who is your companion aligned with Asha for the great Magā? Who wishes to become renowned?” “It is Kavi Vishtaspa at the offering. Those whom you, Mazda Ahura, have joined with me in one purpose—I invoke with the words of Vohu Manah.” 46.15. O Haecat-aspa Spitamas, I shall declare to you how you are to distinguish the lawful from the lawless. By these deeds you shall establish Asha for yourselves, through the primal laws of Ahura—??? 46.16. Frashaoshtra, go there with the upright, where those whom you choose may dwell in radiance—where Armaiti accompanies Asha, where Khshathra is possessed through the desired power of Vohu Manah, where Ahura Mazda dwells in increasing splendor. 46.17. There I shall proclaim to you measured teachings, not unmeasured ones, O wise Jamaspa. Dwell with them, hearing the praises of saving power. Let Ahura Mazda, through Asha, discern with clear insight what is lawful and what is lawless. 46.18. Whoever keeps faith with me—to him, through the powers of my purpose, I assign what is best through Vohu Manah. But hostility to the one who seeks hostility against us. Mazda, satisfying your choice through Asha—this is the judgment of my understanding and Manah. 46.19. Whoever shall truly fulfill for Zarathushtra what accords with Asha, according to his will—the making-fresh of existence—for him, as the winner’s reward, shall be an existence beyond thought, with all possessions and cattle. Teach me these things, you who know best, Mazda. 46.20. Radiance for the one through whom radiance comes to anyone at all. Ruling at will, may Ahura Mazda grant it. Enduring strength, together with life-force, I desire from you; I desire to uphold Asha. Give me this, Armaiti: the rewards of splendor, a life in Vohu Manah. (repeat) Radiance for the one through whom radiance comes to anyone at all. Ruling at will, may Ahura Mazda grant it. Enduring strength, together with life-force, I desire from you; I desire to uphold Asha. Give me this, Armaiti: the rewards of splendor, a life in Vohu Manah. Asha is good; it is best. Radiance is; radiance for the one whose Asha is for the Best Asha. (repeat) Asha is good; it is best. Radiance is; radiance for the one whose Asha is for the Best Asha. Asha is good; it is best. Radiance is; radiance for the one whose Asha is for the Best Asha. We worship the Kamnamaeza chapter. We worship the Uštavaiti Gatha, aligned with Asha, as the guiding judgment of Asha. We worship the sections of the Uštavaiti Gatha. We worship those beings, male and female, whom Ahura Mazda knows to be better for worship in accordance with Asha. ### Yasna 47 — Spentamainyush Gatha Homage to you, O Gathas aligned with Asha. 47.1. Through Bounteous Spirit and Best Mind, through Asha, through deed and through word, may Ahura Mazda grant that one Wholeness and Immortality, through Dominion and Armaiti.:: (..) Through Bounteous Spirit and Best Mind, through Asha, through deed and through word, may Ahura Mazda grant that one Wholeness and Immortality, through Dominion and Armaiti.:: 47.2. Of this most bounteous Spirit, one shall fulfill the best with the tongue, with words of Vohu Manah, with the hands of Armaiti, through deeds—by this insight: he is the Father of Asha, Mazda. 47.3. Of this Spirit you are the bounteous one, you who fashioned for us the joy-bringing Cow. When, for her pasture, you gave peace-bringing Armaiti, then, Mazda, you took counsel with Vohu Manah. 47.4. From this Spirit the followers of the Lie fall away, Mazda—not so the followers of Asha. Even a man of little means shall be dear to the follower of Asha; even one of great power shall be evil to the follower of the Lie. 47.5. And through Bounteous Spirit, Mazda Ahura, you have apportioned to the follower of Asha whatever is indeed best—and even what the follower of the Lie, by his deeds, receives from your will, through the evil understanding of his mind. 47.6. These things you give through Bounteous Spirit, Mazda Ahura, through Fire: the decisive allotment to the two parties, through the support of Armaiti and Asha. For this shall turn many who seek it. 47.7. Through Bounteous Spirit and Best Mind, through Asha, through deed and through word, may Ahura Mazda grant that one Wholeness and Immortality, through Dominion and Armaiti.:: Through Bounteous Spirit and Best Mind, through Asha, through deed and through word, may Ahura Mazda grant that one Wholeness and Immortality, through Dominion and Armaiti.:: Asha is good; it is best.:: Radiance is; radiance is for the one for whom Asha is for the best.:: (..)

We worship the third chapter, “Bounteous Spirit.”:: Whichever beings Ahura Mazda knows to be good for worship according to Asha—those, both male and female, we worship. ### Yasna 48 — Spentamainyush Gatha 48.1. If, through these gifts, Asha shall overcome the Lie—when what the deceivers proclaimed shall be revealed as false among daēvas and mortals—then, with your saving powers, praise shall increase for you, Ahura. 48.2. Tell me what you, knowing, know, Ahura, before the encounter that I foresee comes upon me: shall the follower of Asha, Mazda, overcome the follower of the Lie? For this is known as the good shaping of existence. 48.3. For the one who knows, the best of teachings is what the beneficent, knowing, bounteous Ahura teaches through Asha—even the secret declarations, Mazda, through the wisdom of Vohu Manah. 48.4. Whoever makes his mind better, Mazda—or worse—also makes his conscience so, through deed and through word. His desires, choices, and preferences follow it. In your wisdom, his end shall be distinct. 48.5. Let good rulers rule us; let no evil rulers rule us. Through deeds born of good insight, Armaiti, let purification be worked for the mortal after birth. Let the Cow be tended best; let her be cultivated for our nourishment. 48.6. For she shall give us good dwelling; she shall give us endurance and vigor, through the thriving of Vohu Manah. Through Asha, Mazda shall make the plants grow for her, Ahura, from the first generation of existence. 48.7. Let Wrath be cast down; let violence be cast down. Stand against cruelty; stand against bloodshed, you who desire to hold fast to Vohu Manah. Let Asha come to the clans whose man is bounteous; then, Ahura, I shall place his settlements in your domain. 48.8. What is your power of Vohu Manah’s Dominion, Mazda? What is your reward of Asha for me, Ahura? What manifest help is to be sought from you through Asha for the deeds of the Bounteous Spirit? 48.9. When shall I know, Mazda, whether you rule through Asha over the one whose threat terrifies me? Let the true pattern of Vohu Manah be clearly revealed to me. Let the future bringer of benefit know how his reward shall be. 48.10. When, Mazda, shall men turn away from the intoxicant? When shall you strike down the filth of this drink, through which the Karapans wickedly delude, and the evil rulers of the lands in deliberate purpose? 48.11. When, Mazda, shall Armaiti come with Asha? When shall peaceful, pasture-rich dwelling come with Dominion? Who shall bring peace against the bloodthirsty followers of the Lie? To whom shall the insight of Vohu Manah come? 48.12. Then they shall be the benefit-bringers of the lands: those who, through Vohu Manah, follow understanding with deeds in accord with Asha and with your teaching, Mazda. For they are appointed adversaries of Wrath. 48.13. Through Bounteous Spirit and Best Mind, through Asha, through deed and through word, may Ahura Mazda grant that one Wholeness and Immortality, through Dominion and Armaiti.:: Through Bounteous Spirit and Best Mind, through Asha, through deed and through word, may Ahura Mazda grant that one Wholeness and Immortality, through Dominion and Armaiti.:: Asha is good; it is best.:: Radiance is; radiance is for the one for whom Asha is for the best.:: (..)

We worship the chapter “If, through these gifts.” Whichever beings Ahura Mazda knows to be good for worship according to Asha—those, both male and female, we worship. ### Yasna 49 — Spentamainyush Gatha 49.1. All my life Bendva, the greatest obstructer, has blocked me—he who seeks to satisfy the crooked through resistance to Asha. Come to me, Mazda, with good reward; come to my aid. Through Vohu Manah, find protection for me from his hostility. 49.2. Bendva’s false doctrine dismays me—the follower of the Lie who, deceitful, turns away from Asha. He has not fostered bounteous Armaiti for his own being, nor, Mazda, has he consulted Vohu Manah. 49.3. Yet for this choosing, Mazda, it has been established: Asha for the one who advances it, the Lie for the false teacher. Therefore I choose fellowship with Vohu Manah, and renounce all fellowship with the follower of the Lie. 49.4. Those of evil understanding who, with their tongues, increase Wrath and violence; who are non-herders among herders; whose evil deeds prevail, not their good deeds—they establish the daēvas: such is the conscience of the follower of the Lie. 49.5. But whoever, Mazda, has joined his conscience with Vohu Manah shall receive both vitality and abundance. Through Armaiti he is of good lineage in Asha, and through all these, Ahura, he is in your Dominion. 49.6. I ask you both, Mazda and Asha, to proclaim what is in your purpose, that we may discern it truly through your Mind, and so make heard that vision of faith which belongs to one like you, Ahura. 49.7. Let Vohu Manah hear this, Mazda; let Asha hear it. Hear it yourself, Ahura. Who, by the ordinances, shall be a member of the community? Who a clansman? Who shall give good renown to the fellowship? 49.8. For Frashaoshtra grant the most joyful union with Asha. This I ask of you, Mazda Ahura—and for me the same in your good Dominion. Through every age may we be your foremost messengers. 49.9. Let the fashioned herdsman hear the teachings for well-being. Let no one of crooked speech, gazing upon the follower of the Lie, destroy their aim. Let the consciences be yoked to the best reward, yoked with Asha—O Jamaspa, in your appeal. 49.10. And this, Mazda, I entrust to your house for safekeeping: Vohu Manah, the souls of the followers of Asha, reverence and Armaiti, vitality and abundance—through Dominion, enduring strength. 49.11. But the souls of evil rulers, evil doers, evil speakers, those of evil conscience and evil mind—the followers of the Lie—return to meet them with foul nourishment. Truly, they shall be guests in the House of the Lie. 49.12. What help have you through Asha for Zarathushtra when he invokes you? What have you through Vohu Manah—you whom I would delight with praises, Mazda Ahura, asking for what you desire as best? 49.13. Through Bounteous Spirit and Best Mind, through Asha, through deed and through word, may Ahura Mazda grant that one Wholeness and Immortality, through Dominion and Armaiti.:: Through Bounteous Spirit and Best Mind, through Asha, through deed and through word, may Ahura Mazda grant that one Wholeness and Immortality, through Dominion and Armaiti.:: Asha is good; it is best.:: Radiance is; radiance is for the one for whom Asha is for the best.:: (..)

We worship the chapter “All my life.”:: Whichever beings Ahura Mazda knows to be good for worship according to Asha—those, both male and female, we worship. ### Yasna 50 — Spentamainyush Gatha 50.1. Does my soul command any help? Whose help is found? Who is known as protector of my herd and of me, if not Asha and you, Mazda Ahura, and the Best Mind openly invoked? 50.2. How, Mazda, shall one seek the joy-bringing Cow—one who desires her to have pasture? Living rightly through Asha among the many who watch the sun, set me no law among the unknowing; place me among those who know. 50.3. And through Asha, Mazda, that shall belong to the one for whom, through Dominion and Vohu Manah, you have promised it: the man who, through the strength of Asha, furthers the nearest living world, which the follower of the Lie would seize. 50.4. Praising, I shall worship you, Mazda Ahura, together with Asha, Best Mind, and Dominion, through which one may stand upon the path of desire, manifestly helping in the House of Song. 50.5. For I shall reach you, Mazda Ahura, through Asha, when you incline yourselves to your inspired speaker. May I, with clear sight, reveal myself through help, with outstretched hands—the help that may set us in well-being. 50.6. Zarathushtra is the one who, through the inspired thought, bears the word, Mazda, a companion of Asha in reverence. May the Creator of wisdom direct my tongue’s course, that I may guide through Vohu Manah. 50.7. Then I shall yoke for you the swiftest steeds, broad-ranging in their victories, for your praise—Mazda, with Asha, strong through Vohu Manah. With these, come here to my help. 50.8. With the steps renowned in vitality I shall circle around you, Mazda, with uplifted hands; then around you with Asha and the reverence of rectitude; then around you with the skill of Vohu Manah. 50.9. With these acts of worship I shall come before you, praising you, Mazda, with Asha and with the deeds of Vohu Manah. When I rule at will over my reward through Asha, then may I, beneficent, be powerful in my seeking. 50.10. Whatever deeds I have performed, and those that, through Vohu Manah, seem worthy to the eyes—the lights of the sun, the radiant dawns of the days—all are for your praise through Asha, Mazda Ahura. 50.11. Then I shall call myself your praiser, Mazda, and shall be so as long as I have strength and power through Asha. May the Creator of existence advance through Vohu Manah what, according to his will, is most renewing and truly fulfilled. 50.12. Through Bounteous Spirit and Best Mind, through Asha, through deed and through word, may Ahura Mazda grant that one Wholeness and Immortality, through Dominion and Armaiti.:: Through Bounteous Spirit and Best Mind, through Asha, through deed and through word, may Ahura Mazda grant that one Wholeness and Immortality, through Dominion and Armaiti.:: Asha is good; it is best.:: Radiance is; radiance is for the one for whom Asha is for the best.:: (..)

Good Dominion, worthy of choosing—the most prize-bearing portion—comes with vitality to the one who moves within Asha through discerning deeds. Mazda, let us now perform this best thing.:: (..) Good Dominion, worthy of choosing—the most prize-bearing portion—comes with vitality to the one who moves within Asha through discerning deeds. Mazda, let us now perform this best thing.:: 51.2. These things first, Mazda Ahura, reveal to me through Asha, both for you and for Armaiti. Through Vohu Manah grant me your Dominion with power, for praise and saving strength. 51.3. Let those who serve you through deeds draw near to you with hearing, Ahura, through Asha—with words of the tongue born of Vohu Manah. Of these you are the first promoter, Mazda. 51.4. Where is the one who finds gain? Where does mercy dwell? Where is protection? Where shall renown be? Where is Asha? Where is bounteous Armaiti? Where is Best Mind? Where, Mazda, is your Dominion? 51.5. I ask all these things: how, following Asha, the herdsman shall care for the Cow—upright in deeds, endowed with good wisdom and reverence; how, ruling with insight, he shall recognize the true judgment for the two parties. 51.6. Whoever sets what is better than good for the one who fulfills his choice—to him Ahura Mazda comes through Dominion. But what is worse than evil comes to the one who does not discern for him, at the final turning of existence. 51.7. Grant me, you who fashioned the Cow, the waters, and the plants, Wholeness and Immortality through the most bounteous Spirit, Mazda—vigor and endurance through Vohu Manah, for the proclamation. 51.8. For I shall declare to you, Mazda—let a man tell it to one who knows: ill fortune for the follower of the Lie, radiance for the one who has upheld Asha. For happy is the inspired speaker who speaks to one who knows. 51.9. The satisfaction you assigned to the two parties through your red Fire, Mazda, through molten metal—you will establish it among living beings as a sign: ruin for the follower of the Lie, saving power for the follower of Asha. 51.10. But the man who seeks to destroy me otherwise than by this, Mazda—he is an offspring of the Lie’s creation, one of those who are evil. For myself I invoke Asha, coming with good Reward. 51.11. What man is a covenant-partner to Spitama Zarathushtra, Mazda? Who has consulted with Asha? With whom is bounteous Armaiti? What upright one, through Vohu Manah, is known for the fellowship? 51.12. The Kavi’s disciple did not satisfy him—Spitama Zarathushtra—at Winter’s Gate, when he was halted there: though both his team and his draft animals shivered, he did not grant him passage. 51.13. Thus the Daena of the deceitful destroys the straight one’s reality; his soul openly laments at the Chinvat Bridge—aware that by his own deeds and tongue he has lost the paths of Asha. 51.14. Neither through covenants nor through ordinances do the Karapans rightly care for the cattle and pasture. By their own deeds and teachings, their doctrine at last has lodged them in the House of the Lie. 51.15. The reward Zarathushtra promised to the companions of the Maga in the House Beyond—Ahura Mazda came first to it. That reward I now promise you through Vohu Manah and through the life-giving powers of Asha. 51.16. King Vishtaspa attained that insight through the Dominion of the Maga, along the paths of Vohu Manah—the insight Spenta Mazda Ahura conceived through Asha. So may it be established for us according to our desire. 51.17. Frashaoshtra of the Hvogvas has shown me the precious form belonging to the good Daena. May sovereign Ahura Mazda grant him the object of his desire, that I may proclaim the abundance of Asha. 51.18. Wise Jamaspa of the Hvogvas chooses that insight, through splendor and Asha, for attainment: that Dominion of Vohu Manah. Grant me this, Ahura Mazda, as a support from you. 51.19. That man, Maidhyoi-Mangha the Spitaman, devotes himself to him, knowing through the Daena. Seeking life, he declares Mazda the creator; through the deeds of life, he declares what is better. 51.20. May all of you, of one will with us, grant this life-giving Asha through Vohu Manah—with words by which, worshiping Armaiti in reverence, Mazda is made a ready support. 51.21. The man of Armaiti is beneficent. Through insight, through words, through deeds, through the Daena, he makes Asha flourish. Ahura Mazda grants good Dominion through Vohu Manah. For that good reward I pray. 51.22. Whoever—from Asha—I know to be best in worship, Ahura Mazda knows them: those who have been and those who are. I shall worship them by their own names, and I shall approach them with honor. 51.23.

And now may they serve him with mind, with words and deeds, for Mazda’s satisfaction and praise. King Vishtaspa, Zarathushtra Spitama, and Frashaoshtra have openly chosen the worship and the straight paths of the Daena that Ahura established for the life-renewing ones. 53.3. And you, Pouruchista—youngest daughter of Zarathushtra, of the Haechataspa and Spitama line—Mazda has appointed for you, as companion, one devoted to Vohu Manah, to Asha, and to Mazda. Therefore take counsel with your own understanding; work with the most beneficent Armaiti, and act with generous wisdom. 53.4. Him, then, I shall cherish and choose—the one who, as father and husband, is appointed for the pastoral people, and also for the household: an Asha-possessing woman among those who possess Asha. May the radiant inheritance of Vohu Manah come to me. May Ahura Mazda grant it for the good Daena, for all enduring time. 53.5. I shall speak to the maidens being married, and to you bridegrooms, giving warning: hold these things in mind; understand them through your Daenas. Let each contend to surpass the other through Asha and Vohu Manah—for that shall bring a good gain. 53.6. So it is in truth, men—and likewise, women. The Lie brings an evil preference upon the one who comes to embrace it. His soul’s own joy is lost to those borne away by passing breath. Bad food shall come to the deceitful; misery to those who scorn Asha. By these acts you destroy your mindful life. 53.7. And the reward of this Maga shall be yours as long as your deepest zeal remains firmly joined—beyond what is spoken and heard—where the Mainyu of the deceitful is powerless. But if you abandon this Maga, then at the final word: grief shall be yours. 53.8. Through these things may the evildoers be exposed to mockery, all of them to derision. Under good rulers let there be restraint upon the violent and the bloodthirsty; through these let peace be established for settled communities and clans. Let the greatest bind them in fetters of death—and let it come swiftly. 53.9. Through evil choices the crooked servant seeks to corrupt your true men, scorning them and defiling their bodies.

The soul of the Cow complained to you: “For whom did you shape me? Who fashioned me? Fury and violence, cruelty, captivity, and brutal force have bound me. I have no pastor other than you. Therefore reveal to me a good herdsman.” 29.2. Then the Fashioner of the Cow asked Asha: “What judge do you have for the Cow, so that, together with a herdsman, you may give her care and thriving pasture? Whom do you wish as an ahura for her, one who may drive away the fury of the deceitful?” 29.3. Asha answered him: “There is no unhateful lord for the Cow. Among those people, none is known who understands how the lowly are treated by the powerful. Of existing beings, the strongest is the one to whose calls I may come with help.” 29.4. Mazda is the best one to remember the declarations made before by daevas and mortals, and those that will be made afterward. He is Ahura, the discerner. Let it be for us as he wills. 29.5. Then, with our souls and our hands stretched out, we two—the soul of the Cow and I—prayed to Ahura: “Mazda, there is no prospect of justice for the one who lives rightly, nor for the herdsman among the deceitful.” 29.6. Then Ahura Mazda, knowing the designs through his discernment, said: “No lord has been found, nor any judge in accordance with Asha. For the Fashioner fashioned you for both the stockbreeder and the herdsman.” 29.7. In agreement with Asha, Ahura Mazda fashioned for the Cow this sacred utterance of nourishment, and milk for those desiring it—he, the Spenta one, with his teaching. “Whom do you have through Vohu Manah who may give these things to mortals?” 29.8. “This one alone has been found here for me, one who has listened to our teachings: Zarathustra Spitāma. He is willing, Mazda, to make our acts celebrated for Asha. Therefore may I grant him sweetness of speech.” 29.9. Then the soul of the Cow lamented: “Am I to accept the powerless word of a feeble man as protection, though I wish for one who commands with power? When will there ever be one who will give him strong-handed help?” 29.10. You, Ahura, give them strength through Asha, and through Vohu Manah that Dominion by which they may establish good dwelling and peace. Mazda, I have recognized you as the first to provide these. 29.11. Where are Asha, Vohu Manah, and Dominion? You, Mazda, now acknowledge me for understanding, for the great offering. Ahura, now come down to us here with the gift of people like you. 29.12.

Now I will proclaim to those who seek the things that the knowing one must know: praises for Ahura, worship through Vohu Manah, and the good understanding that comes with Asha, as well as the joys that will be seen through the lights. 30.2. Listen with your ears to the best things. Look upon them with a clear Manah. For the decision, let each man choose for his own person before the great event. Be awake to make this known to us. 30.3. Now the two primal Mainyus, who appeared in vision as twins, are the better and the bad in thought, word, and deed. Between these two, those of good understanding chose correctly, not those of bad understanding. 30.4. And when these two Mainyus came together, they first established life and nonlife, and how existence will be at the end: the worst existence for the deceitful, but the best Manah for the one possessing Asha. 30.5. Of these two Mainyus, the deceitful one chose to perform the worst things, but the most Spenta Mainyu chose Asha—he who clothes himself in the hardest stones—and so did those who satisfy Ahura Mazda with true deeds, committing themselves to him. 30.6. The daevas did not choose correctly between these two, because deception came over them as they deliberated. When they chose the worst Manah, they rushed together into Fury, through which they afflict mortal existence. 30.7. To that person came Dominion, together with Vohu Manah and Asha; and Armaiti gave enduring life and bodily form. At the reckoning with metal, he will be foremost among those who belong to you. 30.8. And when punishment for their offenses comes, Mazda, your Dominion will then be recognized through Vohu Manah. Ahura, it will be proclaimed to those who deliver Deception into the hands of Asha. 30.9. And may we be among those who make this existence fresh. May the Mazdas and Ahuras bring aid to me through Asha, so that our thoughts may be united where discernment is unsettled. 30.10. Then the collapse of Deception’s prosperity will come. Those who win good renown will be joined to the good dwelling of Vohu Manah, Mazda, and Asha. 30.11. Mortals, when you understand the rules that Mazda has established—the happiness and suffering, the long-lasting harm for the deceitful and the benefits for those possessing Asha—then, through these, happiness will follow. 30.12. With this reverence, my hands outstretched, I first ask you, Mazda, for the support of Spenta Mainyu: through Asha, all the deeds and the wisdom of Vohu Manah by which you may satisfy the soul of the Cow.

We worship this Hāiti, “Now I will proclaim.” We worship those male and female beings whom Ahura Mazda knows, through Asha, to be better in worship. ### Yasna 31 — Ahunavaiti Gatha 31.1. Remembering these rules of yours, we proclaim words unheard by those who, through the rules of Deception, destroy the living world of Asha—but words best for those who are devoted to Mazda. 31.2. If the better path is not clearly visible to the soul through these words, I will come before all of you as the judge Ahura Mazda knows for the two sides, so that we may live in accordance with Asha. 31.3. Mazda, declare to us with your tongue what satisfaction you grant through Mainyu, fire, and Asha to the two contending sides—what rule is given to those who understand—so that I may win over all the living. 31.4. When Asha is invoked, and the Mazdas and Ahuras, and Reward and Armaiti are present, I will seek best Manah for myself and mighty Dominion, through whose growth we may overcome Deception. 31.5. Tell me what is to be discerned: what is better for me according to Asha, what is to be known through Vohu Manah, and what I am to keep in mind and give to the one who judges me rightly. Mazda Ahura, tell me both what will not be and what will be. 31.6. The best will belong to the one who, knowing it, tells me the true sacred utterance of Asha’s Wholeness and Immortality. For Mazda will have that Dominion which grows for him through Vohu Manah. 31.7. He who first conceived that the luminous spaces should be filled with light—he, through wisdom, fashioned Asha, by which he upholds best Manah. Mazda, through the same Mainyu, make these grow—you who even now remain the same, Ahura. 31.8. Then I recognized you in thought as the first, Mazda, when I understood you to be the father of Vohu Manah; when I grasped you with my eyes as the true creator of Asha and as Ahura in the deeds of existence. 31.9. Yours was Armaiti, and yours was the fashioner of the Cow. Yours, Ahura Mazda, was the wisdom of the mind when you gave her paths: either she would go to the herdsman, or to one who would not be a herdsman. 31.10. Then, from these, she chose for herself the herdsman—the livestock-tending lord who possesses Asha—one enriched by Vohu Manah. Mazda, the non-herdsman, even when he strives well, receives no share. 31.11. When, Mazda, at the beginning you fashioned for us living beings and conceptions through your mind, and wisdom as well; when you gave embodied life its breath; and when you established actions and teachings, so that one declares one’s choices according to one’s will— 31.12. then one raises one’s voice, whether speaking falsely or speaking honestly, whether knowing or unknowing, according to one’s heart and mind. Armaiti, following closely, questions both spirits wherever there is uncertainty. 31.13. Whatever open matters one examines, Mazda, and whatever hidden matters one investigates; or when someone incurs the greatest penalty for a slight offense—you watch all these things with your bright eyes, beholding them through Asha. 31.14. I ask you about these things, Ahura: those that are now coming and those that will come; the compensations assigned through Asha for the truthful, and those, Mazda, for the deceitful; and how these things will be when completed. 31.15. I ask this: what punishment is there for the one who generates dominion for the deceitful person of harmful action, Ahura—the one who finds no livelihood except by harming the livestock and the people of a herdsman who practices no deception? 31.16. I ask this: how will that generous person, striving to advance through Asha the dominion of a household, settlement, or land, become like you, Mazda Ahura? When will he be so, and through what actions? 31.17. Which of the two—the one possessing Asha or the deceitful one—chooses what is greater? Let one who knows speak to one who knows. Let no unknowing person mislead us any longer. Be for us, Mazda Ahura, the revealer of Vohu Manah. 31.18. Therefore, let none of you listen to the formulas and instructions of the deceitful one, because he will bring household, clan, settlement, or land into distress and destruction. So cut them down with the weapon. 31.19. Let one listen who has understood Asha—the knowing, life-healing Ahura, who rules his tongue at will for words spoken correctly. Through your glowing fire, Mazda, let the two parties be clearly distinguished in the good contest. 31.20. Whoever approaches the one possessing Asha will afterward have brightness for a dwelling; but the deceitful person’s own conception and actions lead him into long-lasting darkness, foul food, and cries of woe—to that existence. 31.21. Ahura Mazda grants fullness and immortality, abundance arising from Asha, self-mastery, the support of Dominion, and the enduring strength of Vohu Manah to the one who is his ally in spirit and actions. 31.22. These things are clear to the generous person who understands them through Vohu Manah. By Dominion he upholds Asha in word and action. He, Mazda Ahura, will be your most effective servant. 31.23. With reverence I seek this first from you, Mazda: the support of Spenta Mainyu, together with Asha, all actions, and the wisdom of Vohu Manah, by which you will satisfy the soul of the Cow.:: (..)

His family, his community together with the fellowship, and his daēvas petitioned him. In my understanding of Ahura Mazda, we will be your messengers. Hold back those who show hostility toward you. 32.2. Ahura Mazda, united with Vohu Manah, answered them from Dominion, as a good companion through Asha: “We choose your good, beneficent Armaiti. Let her be ours.” 32.3. But you daēvas, all of you, are offspring of Akem Manah, the Evil Mind; and so is the one who greatly worships you. Your actions come from Deception and contempt, by which you have become notorious throughout the seventh region of the earth. 32.4. For you have established those worst things by which mortals, gratifying the daēvas, prosper while withdrawing from Vohu Manah and straying from the wisdom of Ahura Mazda and from Asha. 32.5. By these things you defraud mortals of good life and immortality, because the evil spirit, together with Evil Mind and an evil action expressed in words, has assigned you daēvas to the deceitful person as rulers. 32.6. Though a person becomes renowned through the many offenses he has committed, Ahura, when they are counted as they truly are, you know best through the Best Mind. In your Dominion, Mazda, I will proclaim the judgment for you and for Asha. 32.7. No one who knows these offenses can knowingly declare that the acts now being reported bring success—acts whose molten-metal outcome you, Ahura Mazda, know best. 32.8. Among these offenses, even Yima, son of Vivanghu, has been reported: to gratify our mortals, he ate portions of the Cow. In your discernment, Mazda, I too am subject to judgment for these things. 32.9. The teacher of harmful instruction destroys the teaching. By his declarations he destroys the wisdom of life, keeping precious and truly desired possessions away from me. With these words of my spirit, Mazda, I lament to you and to Asha. 32.10. That man destroys the teaching who declares it the worst thing to behold the earth and sun with one’s eyes; who gives gifts to the deceitful; who lays waste the pasture; and who raises a weapon against the one possessing Asha. 32.11. Those too destroy my livelihood who, through the deceitful one’s great powers, appear as lords and ladies; who deprive people of their inherited property; and who, Mazda, try to drive those possessing Asha away from the Best Mind. 32.12. Through their teaching they divert mortals from the best action. Mazda calls them evil: those who destroy the Cow’s life with joyful pronouncements—those Karapans by whom Grə̄hma chooses Dominion over Asha and chooses the lordship of Deception. 32.13. The dominion that Grə̄hma sought has placed him in the dwelling of the Worst Mind, as a destroyer of this existence. So too with those, Mazda, who complain in their desire against your prophet’s message, which would keep them from seeing Asha. 32.14. Grə̄hma’s wisdom and even that of the Kavis has long been fixed on this goal, and their powers have been devoted to assisting the deceitful. For it was said that the Cow must be killed so that it might kindle help that keeps death far away. 32.15. By these things the Karapans and the Kavis are brought to ruin, together with those whom they place over others. They will not rule life according to their will. These two groups will be carried into the dwelling of Vohu Manah. 32.16. This entire thing is indeed best: when one who understands proclaims it to the knowing person. May you rule, Mazda Ahura. Let no one threaten me with enmity. Let us restrain the deceitful person’s hostility and keep his offenses far from this existence.:: 32.17. With reverence I seek this first from you, Mazda: the support of Spenta Mainyu, together with Asha, all actions, and the wisdom of Vohu Manah, by which you will satisfy the soul of the Cow.:: (..)

We worship those male and female beings whose excellence Ahura Mazda knows, in accordance with Asha, to be worthy of worship. ### Yasna 33 — Ahunavaiti Gatha 33.1. As things are now, the judge shall act according to the laws of the first existence, with actions most properly ordered toward both the deceitful person and the one possessing Asha, and toward the person whose false and honest deeds are held in equal balance. 33.2. But whoever acts against the deceitful person’s evil by word, by thought, or by both hands, or who instructs his companion in what is good—such people fulfill Ahura Mazda’s desire and will. 33.3. Whoever is best toward the one possessing Asha—whether a family member, a member of the community, a fellow member, or, Ahura, one who diligently tends the Cow—will dwell in the pasture of Asha and Vohu Manah. 33.4. I who worship you, Mazda, will drive disobedience and Akem Manah away from the family, contempt away from the community, the nearest Deception away from the fellowship, ill-speaking people away from the pasture of the Cow, and the worst counselor away from it. 33.5. I invoke your greatest Sraosha—Attentive Hearing—for help, so that I may attain long-lasting life, the Dominion of Vohu Manah, and the straight paths arising from Asha along which Ahura Mazda dwells. 33.6. As the libation-pourer, straight through Asha, I come from the Best Spirit. I have considered, with this mind, what is to be done for the pasture. I seek these things from you, Ahura Mazda, through seeing and through full consultation. 33.7. Come to me; come, you best ones, Mazda, openly and visibly, with Asha and Vohu Manah, so that I may be heard beyond the fellowship. Let manifest offerings of reverence be present among us. 33.8. Make those purposes clear to me—the ones I will carry out through Vohu Manah. Mazda, I will worship one like you, and I will praise Asha with words. Through immortality and fullness, give your enduring gifts. 33.9. Mazda, through Asha’s flourishing power, may that Spirit of yours bring me the happiness that best refreshes. Through the Best Mind, let me know the lasting fulfillment for which souls accompany one another. 33.10. All the good ways of life that have existed, that now exist, and that will exist, Mazda—distribute them according to your desire. Through Vohu Manah, Dominion, and Asha, increase my embodied life in happiness. 33.11. You who are the mightiest Ahura—Mazda, Armaiti, Asha who advances living existence, Vohu Manah, and Dominion—hear me and have mercy on me at the granting of each person’s due.:: (..) You who are the mightiest Ahura—Mazda, Armaiti, Asha who advances living existence, Vohu Manah, and Dominion—hear me and have mercy on me at the granting of each person’s due.:: You who are the mightiest Ahura—Mazda, Armaiti, Asha who advances living existence, Vohu Manah, and Dominion—hear me and have mercy on me at the granting of each person’s due.:: 33.12. Rise up for me and give me strength, Ahura. Through Armaiti give me vigor, and through Spenta Mainyu, Mazda, grant good reward. Through Asha give powerful force, and through Vohu Manah give firmness. 33.13. For support, show me the far-seeing things that you possess in abundance, Ahura: the blessings of Dominion and of Vohu Manah. Through Spenta Armaiti, reveal the conceptions belonging to Asha. 33.14. Therefore Zarathustra gives as a gift even the breath of his own body, the foremost part of his being, to Mazda; the action of Vohu Manah to Asha; and the Sraosha—Attentive Hearing—of his word, together with Dominion.:: 33.15. With reverence and uplifted hands I first ask this of you, Mazda, through the supporting Spirit: through Asha, grant all the deeds of the Bountiful One and the wisdom of Good Mind by which you may satisfy the Soul of the Cow. (Repeat:) With reverence and uplifted hands I first ask this of you, Mazda, through the supporting Spirit: through Asha, grant all the deeds of the Bountiful One and the wisdom of Good Mind by which you may satisfy the Soul of the Cow.

Ahura Mazda knows, through Asha, whose worship among existing beings is good. We worship those men and women. ### Yasna 34 — Ahunavaiti Gatha 34.1. The deeds, the words, and the acts of worship through which you grant them Immortality and Asha, Mazda, and Dominion together with Wholeness—these, Ahura, are placed in our hands as the foremost offerings to you. 34.2. All these things are yours through Good Mind and through the Spirit: the creations of the Bountiful One and the deeds of the man whose soul follows Asha. They surround the living world belonging to you, Mazda, with songs of praise. 34.3. So, Ahura, with reverence I bring you and Asha an offering: all the creatures of life within your Dominion, those whom one has nurtured through Good Mind. For the wise who give well, Mazda, gain benefit through all who are yours. 34.4. Ahura, through Asha we seek your powerful fire, swift and mighty, visibly helping the supporter but bringing visible injuries upon the hostile through the power of its hands, Mazda. 34.5. What is your Dominion? What is your power, Mazda, by which I may act in accordance with you, through Asha and Good Mind, so as to protect the poor? We proclaim you above all others, above the daēvas, predatory creatures, and mortals. 34.6. If you truly are so, Mazda, together with Asha and Good Mind, then give me a sign of this, through all the guiding principles of this existence, so that I may come before you worshiping and praising, and may find confidence. 34.7. Where are those devoted to you, Mazda, who understand Good Mind and, even amid misfortune and distress, make its teaching prosper? I know no one other than you. Therefore protect us through Asha. 34.8. For they frighten us by those deeds through which many are placed in danger, because the powerful threaten the weaker, disregarding your firm covenant, Mazda. Asha is not in their thoughts, and Good Mind stays far from them. 34.9. Those who, although knowing it, abandon Bountiful Ārmaiti—your cherished one, Mazda—through evil deeds and because they are strangers to Good Mind: Asha withdraws far from them, as wild beasts flee from us. 34.10. The person of good wisdom has declared that the deed of Good Mind is to grasp Bountiful Ārmaiti, knowing her to be the true companion of Asha. All these, Ahura Mazda, are swift messengers within your Dominion. 34.11. Both Wholeness and Immortality serve as nourishment for you. Through the Dominion of Good Mind, Ārmaiti grows together with Asha in enduring vitality and strength. Through these, Mazda, you are the enemy of the enemies. 34.12. What is your directive? What do you desire? What praise or worship is to be proclaimed? Tell me plainly, Mazda, so that the rewards of your ordinances may be distributed. Teach us, through Asha, the paths belonging to Good Mind. 34.13. Ahura, that is the road of Good Mind that you told me about: the well-made path of the daēnā of the benefactors, which advances through Asha alone toward the reward prepared for those who give well—a reward whose giver you are, Mazda. 34.14. For that desirable reward, Mazda, you have given to embodied life through deeds of Good Mind. Those who work in care of the Cow cause your good teaching to prosper, Ahura, through the wisdom of Asha. 34.15. Mazda, now tell me the best words and deeds. Through Good Mind and Asha, I will honor them with praise. Ahura, through your Dominion and according to your will, make existence truly fresh and renewed. (Repeat:) Mazda, now tell me the best words and deeds. Through Good Mind and Asha, I will honor them with praise.

Radiant happiness comes to the one through whom Ahura Mazda, ruling at will, grants radiant happiness to anyone at all. I desire strength from you, together with enduring vitality. Grant me this, Ārmaiti: to uphold Asha, the rich rewards, and a life of Good Mind. (Repeat:) Radiant happiness comes to the one through whom Ahura Mazda, ruling at will, grants radiant happiness to anyone at all. I desire strength from you, together with enduring vitality. Grant me this, Ārmaiti: to uphold Asha, the rich rewards, and a life of Good Mind. 43.2. And may that person receive the best of all things. As a man seeking well-being, may he give us well-being. I recognize you, Mazda, as Bountiful through the most bountiful Spirit, since through Asha you give the wonders of Good Mind for all the days of a long life filled with joy. 43.3. May that man reach what is better than good—the one who teaches us the straight paths of benefit for this embodied and mental existence, the true paths where Ahura dwells: a devoted one like you, well known, Bountiful Mazda. 43.4. Then I will recognize you as powerful and bountiful, Mazda, when the hands with which you hold these rewards bring both to the deceitful and to the follower of Asha what is due through the heat of your fire, strong through Asha, when the force of Good Mind comes to me. 43.5. I recognized you as bountiful, Mazda Ahura, when I first saw you at the birth of existence, when you established that deeds and words would bear a reward: evil for the evil and a good reward for the good, through your skill at the final turning point of creation. 43.6. At that turning point, when you come with the Bountiful Spirit, Mazda, with Dominion and Good Mind, the living creatures will prosper through Asha by the deeds of that Spirit. Ārmaiti will announce the judgments for them—judgments of your wisdom, which no one can deceive. 43.7. I recognized you as bountiful, Mazda Ahura, when Good Mind came around me and asked me: “Who are you, and to whom do you belong? By what sign will you distinguish the days for questioning concerning your possessions and your own self?” 43.8. Then I first said to him: “I am Zaraϑuštra. As far as I can, I will be a true enemy to the deceitful, but to the follower of Asha I will be a powerful support. I want to gain the full powers of Dominion, for as long as I praise and celebrate you, Mazda.” 43.9. I recognized you as bountiful, Mazda Ahura, when Good Mind came around me. When he asked, “For whose sake do you wish to discern this?” I answered, “As long as I am able to think, I will show reverence for your fire, the gift of Asha.” 43.10. So show me Asha, which I continually invoke. Accompanied by Ārmaiti, ask us what we have come here to ask you, for a question put to you is like the question of the powerful, since one ruling through you can make the violent person powerless. 43.11. I recognized you as bountiful, Mazda Ahura, when Good Mind came around me. When I first learned through your words, my trust among mortals brought me hardship. Yet I will carry out what you told me is best. 43.12. And when you tell me, “You have come to Asha for discernment,” then do not command me to rise before Obedience comes to me, accompanied by a richly rewarding recompense that will distribute the rewards among the contending sides. 43.13. I recognized you as bountiful, Mazda Ahura, when Good Mind came around me so that I might understand the aim of my desire. Grant me that aim: the long life that no one has dared you to deny, the desirable existence said to be within your Dominion. 43.14. As a knowing man gives a friend what he seeks, give me, Mazda, the discerning support that comes from you. Through your Dominion and in accordance with Asha, I will rise to oppose the harms of your teaching, together with all those who remember your sacred words. 43.15. I recognized you as bountiful, Mazda Ahura, when Good Mind came around me. The best insight silently taught me to discern: “Do not let a crowd of men seek to satisfy the deceitful.” For they regard all the followers of Asha as enemies. 43.16. And so, Ahura Mazda, Zaraϑuštra chooses that Spirit of yours which is most bountiful of all. May Asha be embodied and strong with vitality. May Ārmaiti be within the radiant Dominion. Through her deeds, may she grant the reward by Good Mind. 43.17. Radiant happiness comes to the one through whom Ahura Mazda, ruling at will, grants radiant happiness to anyone at all. I desire strength from you, together with enduring vitality. Grant me this, Ārmaiti: to uphold Asha, the rich rewards, and a life of Good Mind. (Repeat:) Radiant happiness comes to the one through whom Ahura Mazda, ruling at will, grants radiant happiness to anyone at all. I desire strength from you, together with enduring vitality. Grant me this, Ārmaiti: to uphold Asha, the rich rewards, and a life of Good Mind. Asha is good; it is best.

Ahura Mazda knows, through Asha, whose worship among existing beings is good. We worship those men and women. ### Yasna 44 — Ushtavaiti Gatha 44.1. This I ask you; tell me truly, Ahura: how should reverence like mine be directed to one such as you, Mazda? May a friend like you teach it to a friend like me. May Asha give us friendly support, so that Good Mind may come to us. 44.2. This I ask you; tell me truly, Ahura: how will the first stage of the best existence be made fruitful for the one who seeks it? For he is bountiful through Asha, healing for everyone, watching over all through the Spirit, a friend of existence, Mazda. 44.3. This I ask you; tell me truly, Ahura: who was the first father of Asha by generation? Who established the paths of the sun and the stars? Through whom does the moon wax and then wane? I desire to know these things from you, Mazda, and other things as well. 44.4. This I ask you; tell me truly, Ahura: who held the earth below and the heavens above so that they would not fall? Who made the waters and plants? Who yoked swift motion to the wind and the clouds? Who, Mazda, is the creator of Good Mind? 44.5. This I ask you; tell me truly, Ahura: what skilled maker created light and darkness? What skilled maker created sleep and wakefulness? Who made dawn, noon, and night, which call the discerning person to his duty? 44.6. This I ask you; tell me truly, Ahura, whether what I am about to proclaim is indeed true: Ārmaiti strengthens Asha through deeds; through Good Mind you assign Dominion to them. For whom did you fashion the joy-bringing, fertile Cow? 44.7. This I ask you; tell me truly, Ahura: Who fashioned the blessed creations together with Dominion? Who, through Armaiti, made a son respectful toward his father? Through these questions I seek to recognize you, Mazda, as the creator of all through Spenta Mainyu. 44.8. This I ask you; tell me truly, Ahura, so that I may keep in mind the teachings that are yours, Mazda, and the words I should ask through Vohu Manah, and so that, through Asha, I may know how life can be made ready. Toward what will my soul come, and in what will it delight? 44.9. This I ask you; tell me truly, Ahura: How may I bring life to that Daena which the master of beneficent Dominion seeks to promote—the one upright through Dominion, dwelling with Asha and Vohu Manah, and eager for your rewards, Mazda? 44.10. This I ask you; tell me truly, Ahura, about that Daena which is best for those who exist, which, following Asha, would make my living world prosper through the words and actions of Armaiti. Through the insight of my understanding, they seek you, Mazda. 44.11. This I ask you; tell me truly, Ahura: How will Armaiti spread among those, Mazda, for whom your Daena is desired? I was the first to acknowledge myself as yours among them. I regard all others as belonging to the hostile spirit and therefore with hatred. 44.12. This I ask you; tell me truly, Ahura: Among those whom I question, who is Ashavan, aligned with Asha, and who is possessed by the Lie? Which of the two is hostile—the one who is hostile, or the one who treats me, your beneficiary, as an enemy? Should he not be considered the hostile one? 44.13. This I ask you; tell me truly, Ahura: How shall we drive the Lie away from us and cast it down upon those who, full of disobedience, do not strive to unite themselves with Asha and do not take pleasure in counsel with Vohu Manah? 44.14. This I ask you; tell me truly, Ahura: How shall I deliver the Lie into Asha’s hands, so that Asha may crush it through the formulas of your teaching? How shall I cause a powerful breach among the followers of the Lie, so that, Mazda, ruin and distress come upon them? 44.15. This I ask you; tell me truly, Ahura: If, through Asha, you have power to protect me when the two opposing armies meet in conflict under those obligations that you, Mazda, established, then where and to whom among them will you grant victory? 44.16. This I ask you; tell me truly, Ahura: Who is victorious and protects through your teaching? Clearly reveal to me the healer of existence, the appointed judge. Then let Sraosha come to him through Vohu Manah, Mazda—to whomever you wish, whoever he may be. 44.17. This I ask you; tell me truly, Ahura: How, Mazda, may I reach my goal in union with you and become powerful enough that my voice may be effective, so that through the formula that accords with Asha, Wholeness and Immortality may be awakened? 44.18. This I ask you; tell me truly, Ahura: How shall I win through Asha that reward—ten mares with a stallion and a camel—which, Mazda, is to come to me together with Wholeness and Immortality, just as you have established them for your own? 44.19. This I ask you; tell me truly, Ahura: What first punishment will befall the man who does not give the reward to the one who has earned it—the man who, true in speech, secures it for him? I know what will befall him at the end. 44.20. By what discernment, Mazda, were the Daevas good rulers? I ask this about those who rush to satisfy them, those through whom the Karapan and the Usij handed the Cow over to Fury, and through whom the Kavi made it wail in lamentation. They did not tend it with Asha so that the pasture might prosper. 44.21. Happiness to the one through whom happiness comes. May Ahura Mazda, ruling as he wills, grant it to anyone. I seek lasting strength from you. Through Asha, may I uphold that strength. Give me this, Armaiti: the rewards of wealth and a life of Vohu Manah. (..) Happiness to the one through whom happiness comes. May Ahura Mazda, ruling as he wills, grant it to anyone. I seek lasting strength from you. Through Asha, may I uphold that strength. Give me this, Armaiti: the rewards of wealth and a life of Vohu Manah. Asha is good; it is best. Happiness is; happiness comes to the one whose Asha is for the best Asha. (..) Asha is good; it is best. Happiness is; happiness comes to the one whose Asha is for the best Asha. Asha is good; it is best. Happiness is; happiness comes to the one whose Asha is for the best Asha. We worship the section “This I ask you.” Among existing beings, Ahura Mazda knows whom it is good to worship, according to Asha. We worship all such men and women. ### Yasna 45 — Ushtavaiti Gatha 45.1. Now I will proclaim; now listen, now hear, you who come from near and you who come from far seeking instruction. Now take all this clearly to heart. Let no evil teacher, choosing badly and speaking with the tongue of the follower of the Lie, destroy existence a second time. 45.2. Now I will proclaim the two spirits at the beginning of existence. The more bountiful of the two spoke to the hostile one: “Neither our thoughts, nor teachings, nor understandings, nor choices, nor words, nor actions, nor Daenas, nor souls agree.” 45.3. Now I will proclaim the foremost teaching about this existence, which Ahura Mazda, the knowing one, told me. Those among you who do not perform this formula as I shall think and declare it—for them the end of existence will be disastrous. 45.4. Now I will proclaim what is best in this existence. From Asha, Mazda knows him who created it: the father of active Vohu Manah. His daughter is Armaiti, rich in good action. Ahura, who sees all, cannot be deceived. 45.5. Now I will proclaim what the most bountiful one told me as the best word for mortals to hear: “Those who give me Sraosha and obedience will reach Wholeness and Immortality through the actions of Vohu Manah”—so says Ahura Mazda. 45.6. Now I will proclaim the greatest of all, praising through Asha the one who is beneficent. Let Ahura Mazda hear through Spenta Mainyu. I questioned him in praise through Vohu Manah. By his understanding, may he instruct me in what is best. 45.7. Those who seek his benefits will receive his gifts—those who have lived, those who live now, and those who will live. In Immortality, the soul of the Ashavan will be strong, but the man who follows the Lie will suffer lasting torments. Ahura Mazda established these things through his Dominion. 45.8. Let us honor him with praises and reverence. Now I have indeed seen him with my own eyes, recognizing Ahura Mazda through Asha in the action and word of Vohu Manah. Let us set down our praises for him in the House of Song. 45.9. Let us satisfy him together with Vohu Manah—the one who, according to his will, made both prosperity and adversity for us. May Ahura Mazda, through Dominion, enable our communities to prosper, along with our livestock and people, through the good dwelling of Asha and Vohu Manah. 45.10. Let us glorify him with the worship of Armaiti—the one renowned as Ahura Mazda in the community, because through Asha and Vohu Manah he assigned Wholeness and Immortality to his Dominion, and strength and lasting power to his dwelling. 45.11. Whoever henceforth scorns the Daevas and the mortals who scorn him—everyone other than the one who regards him properly—is a benefactor of the land through the saving, Spenta Daena. Such a person is your ally, brother, or father, Mazda Ahura. 45.12. Happiness to the one through whom happiness comes. May Ahura Mazda, ruling as he wills, grant it to anyone. I seek lasting strength from you. Through Asha, may I uphold that strength. Give me this, Armaiti: the rewards of wealth and a life of Vohu Manah. (..) Happiness to the one through whom happiness comes. May Ahura Mazda, ruling as he wills, grant it to anyone. I seek lasting strength from you. Through Asha, may I uphold that strength. Give me this, Armaiti: the rewards of wealth and a life of Vohu Manah. Asha is good; it is best. Happiness is; happiness comes to the one whose Asha is for the best Asha. (..) Asha is good; it is best. Happiness is; happiness comes to the one whose Asha is for the best Asha. Asha is good; it is best. Happiness is; happiness comes to the one whose Asha is for the best Asha. We worship the section “Now I will proclaim.” Among existing beings, Ahura Mazda knows whom it is good to worship, according to Asha. We worship all such men and women. ### Yasna 46 — Ushtavaiti Gatha 46.1. To what land should I go to escape? Where should I go to escape? They separate me from household and clan. Neither the community I follow nor the land’s rulers, who are followers of the Lie, satisfy me. How, Mazda Ahura, am I to satisfy you? 46.2. I know why I am powerless, Mazda: I have few cattle, and I have few men. I lament to you. Look upon it, Ahura. Grant me the support that one friend would give another. Through Asha, reveal to me the powerful aid of Vohu Manah. 46.3. When, Mazda, will the dawns rise for the world’s upholding and advance through Asha’s powerful teachings—the understandings of the benefactors? To whose aid will one come with Vohu Manah? For my teacher I choose you, Ahura. 46.4. The follower of the Lie restrains those supporters of Asha from advancing the livestock, whether through the district or the land. He is hard to challenge and notorious for his actions. Whoever, Mazda, deprives him of Dominion or life will lead the livestock forward along the paths of good understanding. 46.5. If a powerful person shelters a weak man who comes to him, whether by obligation, through good kinship, or because of agreements, and if, as an Ashavan, he can distinguish the follower of the Lie, he should tell this to his family. But the man who will not protect him from seizure will himself fall into bondage, Mazda Ahura. 46.6. But if a man who is able does not come to that person’s aid, he will go into the bonds of the Lie. For the one who is best toward a follower of the Lie is himself a follower of the Lie, while the one who is friendly to an Ashavan is himself an Ashavan. This has been so since you established the first Daenas, Ahura. 46.7. Whom, Mazda, do you appoint as protector for someone like me when the follower of the Lie threatens to harm me? Who other than your Fire and Manah? Through their actions, Asha has grown strong, Ahura. Proclaim this teaching clearly to my Daena. 46.8. Whoever intends harm against my living world—may his actions not reach me through Fire. Instead, may the consequences return upon him with hostility and keep his body from a good life, though not from a bad life, Mazda, because of his hostility. 46.9. Who is the man who, as the first to recognize me faithfully, taught me to regard you as the greatest one worthy of invocation—the Spenta Ahura, aligned with Asha? What the Fashioner of the Cow told you through Asha and for Asha, I seek to hear from you through Vohu Manah. 46.10. Whoever—man or woman—gives me what you know to be best in existence, Mazda Ahura, namely the reward for Asha and Dominion through Vohu Manah, and those whom I shall lead in worship of those like you—with all of them I will cross the Chinvat Bridge. 46.11. The Karapans and Kavis harness mortal men to their dominions through evil actions in order to destroy existence. Their own souls and their own Daena will torment them when they come to the Chinvat Bridge. They will forever be guests in the House of the Lie. 46.12. When Asha arose among the descendants and offspring of the mighty Turanian Friyana, Armaiti caused their living world to prosper through vigorous herding. Then Vohu Manah brought them together. Ahura Mazda instructs them for their support. 46.13. The mortal who satisfies Spitama Zarathushtra with generosity will be renowned as upright. Ahura Mazda will grant him existence, and through Vohu Manah will make his living world prosper. Through Asha, we consider him a good companion. 46.14. “Zarathushtra, who is your Ashavan ally for the great gift? Who wishes to become renowned?” “It is Kavi Vishtaspa at the offering. Those whom you, Mazda Ahura, have joined with me in one purpose—I invoke with the words of Vohu Manah.” 46.15. O Haechataspas, I will tell you Spitamas how to distinguish those who uphold what is established from those who do not. Through such actions, acquire Asha for yourselves according to the primordial laws of Ahura.??? 46.16. Frashaoshtra, go there with the faithful, and remain there with those whom you choose for a happy state—where Armaiti accompanies Asha, where Dominion is joined with the purposes of Vohu Manah, and where Ahura Mazda dwells in increasing prosperity. 46.17. Where I address you in measured verses, not in verses without measure, O wise Jamaspa, remain united with those praises and hear the gifts. Let Ahura Mazda, through Asha, distinguish what is established from what is not established, discerningly in his thought. 46.18. Whoever acts rightly toward me—to him, according to the best of my powers, I promise what is best through Vohu Manah. But I will oppose whoever intends opposition against us. Mazda, through Asha I satisfy your choice. This is the judgment of my understanding and thought. 46.19. Whoever, in accordance with Asha, truly carries out for Zarathushtra what is most renewing according to his will—for that victorious person there is the reward of an existence beyond death, together with all things desired. You, Mazda, who know best, have taught me this. 46.20. Happiness to the one through whom happiness comes. May Ahura Mazda, ruling as he wills, grant it to anyone. I seek lasting strength from you. Through Asha, may I uphold that strength. Give me this, Armaiti: the rewards of wealth and a life of Vohu Manah. (..) Happiness to the one through whom happiness comes. May Ahura Mazda, ruling as he wills, grant it to anyone. I seek lasting strength from you. Through Asha, may I uphold that strength. Give me this, Armaiti: the rewards of wealth and a life of Vohu Manah. Asha is good; it is best. Happiness is; happiness comes to the one whose Asha is for the best Asha. (..)

Among existing beings, Ahura Mazda knows whom it is good to worship, according to Asha. We worship all such men and women. ### Yasna 47 — Spentamainyush Gatha Reverence to you, Ashavan Gathas. 47.1. Through Spenta Mainyu and Best Mind, through Asha, and through action and word, they grant him Wholeness and Immortality: Ahura Mazda through Dominion and Armaiti. (Repeat:) Through Spenta Mainyu and Best Mind, through Asha, and through action and word, they grant him Wholeness and Immortality: Ahura Mazda through Dominion and Armaiti. 47.2. By the best words of the tongue and the understanding of Vohu Manah, one should enact, with the hands of Armaiti, the deeds of this most beneficent Mainyu. Through this discernment, Ahura Mazda is the Father of Asha. 47.3. You are the beneficent Father of this Mainyu, who fashioned for him the joy-bringing cow. When he gave her peace and Armaiti as her pasture, then, Mazda, after consulting with Vohu Manah, you came to her. 47.4. From this Mainyu the deceitful turn away, Mazda, but not so the truthful. Even a person of little standing will be dear to the truthful person; even a powerful person will be evil to the deceitful one. 47.5. Through this Spenta Mainyu, Mazda Ahura, you assigned to the truthful person what is best. But whatever the deceitful person receives as a share through your favor comes to him through his actions from the evil insight of his mind. 47.6. Through that Spenta Mainyu, Mazda Ahura, you give the decisive outcome through fire and Vohu Manah to the two parties, through the support of Armaiti and Asha. For this will convert many who seek it. 47.7. Through Spenta Mainyu and Best Mind, through Asha, and through action and word, they grant him Wholeness and Immortality: Ahura Mazda through Dominion and Armaiti.

We worship those male and female beings whose goodness in worship Ahura Mazda knows in accordance with Asha. ### Yasna 48 — Spentamainyush Gatha 48.1. If, through these gifts, Asha overcomes the Lie, when what the gods and mortals proclaimed through deception is exposed as false in immortality, then through your saving powers praise will increase for you, Ahura. 48.2. Tell me what you know, Ahura, before the encounter that I foresee comes to me. Will the truthful one, Mazda, overcome the deceitful one? For this is known as the good completion of existence. 48.3. For the one who understands, the best of teachings is the one the beneficent, knowing Ahura teaches through Asha—even the secret declarations, Mazda, through the wisdom of Vohu Manah. 48.4. Whoever makes his mind better or worse, Mazda, also makes his conception, actions, and words so. His wishes, choices, and preferences follow it. In your wisdom, his end will be distinct. 48.5. Let good rulers rule; let bad rulers not rule. Through deeds arising from good discernment, Armaiti, let a mortal make the world whole. Let the cow be worked in the best way; let her be cultivated for our nourishment. 48.6. For she will give us good dwelling and endurance; she will give strength for the growth of Vohu Manah. Then, through Asha, Ahura Mazda will make the plants grow for her at the birth of the first existence. 48.7. Let wrath be bound; let violence be struck down. Resist fury; resist it, you who wish to strengthen Vohu Manah through Asha. The beneficent person belongs to that community. I place his creations within your creation, Ahura. 48.8. What is your power of good Dominion, Mazda? What is your reward through your Asha for me, Ahura? What manifest support is to be sought through Asha for the deeds of the beneficent Mainyu? 48.9. When will I know, Mazda, whether you rule through Asha over the one whose threat frightens me? Let the pattern of Vohu Manah be declared clearly to me. Let the future benefactor know how his reward will be. 48.10. When, Mazda, will people reject the filthy intoxicant? The Karapans wickedly delude people with it, and the bad rulers of the lands do so deliberately. 48.11. When, Mazda, will Armaiti come together with Asha? When will peaceful, pasture-giving Dominion come? Who will bring peace from the bloodthirsty followers of the Lie? To whom will the discernment of Vohu Manah come? 48.12. They will be the future benefactors of the lands: those who, through Vohu Manah, follow satisfaction and, through their deeds, follow the Asha of your teaching, Mazda. They are indeed appointed opponents of wrath. 48.13. Through Spenta Mainyu and Best Mind, through Asha, and through action and word, they grant him Wholeness and Immortality: Ahura Mazda through Dominion and Armaiti.

We worship the chapter called “If, through these gifts.” We worship those male and female beings whose goodness in worship Ahura Mazda knows in accordance with Asha. ### Yasna 49 — Spentamainyush Gatha 49.1. Bentva, the greatest obstacle, has long obstructed me—the one who, desiring to satisfy the crooked, opposes Asha. Come to me with good help, Mazda; come to me. Through Vohu Manah, find a powerful blow against him. 49.2. This Bentva makes me angry—the deceitful teacher who, through deceit, turns people away from Asha. He does not consider beneficent Armaiti worthy of being his, nor does he consult Vohu Manah, Mazda. 49.3. For this choice, Mazda, it has been established that Asha is to flourish and that the Lie is to be destroyed for the deceitful teacher. Therefore I long to unite with Vohu Manah and to separate myself from all the deceitful. 49.4. Those of bad understanding increase wrath and violence with their tongues. Though not themselves cattle-breeders, they stand among cattle-breeders. Their preference is not for good deeds but for bad deeds. They establish the gods, which is the conception of the deceitful. 49.5. But that person, Mazda, receives both vitality and fulfillment who, through Vohu Manah, has joined his conception with Asha: anyone well-born through Asha and Armaiti. With all these he will be in your Dominion, Ahura. 49.6. I ask you, Mazda, and Asha to declare what is in your wisdom, so that through that Mind it may be correctly distinguished and so that we may proclaim the conception belonging to one like you, Ahura. 49.7. Let Mazda hear this through Vohu Manah; let Asha hear it. You listen, Ahura. Who is the community? Who is the family? Who, through the ordinances, will give good renown to the fellowship? 49.8. For Frashaoshtra, grant the most joyful union with Asha. I ask you for that, Mazda Ahura, and for myself I ask lasting companionship in your good Dominion. May we be your foremost ones forever. 49.9. Let the one fashioned for prosperity hear these teachings. Let no one who speaks crooked words see the outcome together with the deceitful. When the conceptions are yoked to the best reward, yoked through Asha, you will win, Dejamaspa. 49.10. And this, Mazda, I entrust to your protection: Vohu Manah, the souls of the truthful, the reverence that is Armaiti, vitality, and worship. Through Dominion I invoke these with enduring strength. 49.11. The deceitful—bad rulers, bad actors, bad speakers, those of bad conception and bad mind—their souls return because of their evil nourishment. They will truly be lasting guests in the House of the Lie. 49.12. What help through Asha do you have for the one who invokes you—for Zarathushtra? What do you have through Vohu Manah for the one who seeks to please you with praises, Mazda Ahura, asking for what you desire as best? 49.13. Through Spenta Mainyu and Best Mind, through Asha, and through action and word, they grant him Wholeness and Immortality: Ahura Mazda through Dominion and Armaiti. Through Spenta Mainyu and Best Mind, through Asha, and through action and word, they grant him Wholeness and Immortality: Ahura Mazda through Dominion and Armaiti. Asha is good; it is best.

We worship the chapter called “Then, for me, for a lifetime.” We worship those male and female beings whose goodness in worship Ahura Mazda knows in accordance with Asha. ### Yasna 50 — Spentamainyush Gatha 50.1. Does my soul command any help? From whom can protection come to me? Who is known as protector of my livestock and of me, if not Asha and you, Mazda Ahura, and the manifestly invoked Best Mind? 50.2. How, Mazda, can one seek the joy-bringing cow—the one who wishes her to stand for him, rich in pasture? Through Asha, establish upright people among the many who see the sun. Place me among the knowing ones; grant that decree. 50.3. Through Asha, Mazda, the cow will belong to that person whom you recognize through Dominion and Vohu Manah: the person who increases the power of Asha. But the deceitful one will receive the living world nearest to him. 50.4. I will worship you with praise, Mazda Ahura, together with Asha, Best Mind, and Dominion, through which the one who seeks may stand on the path of clear support in the House of Song. 50.5. For I will approach you through Asha, Mazda Ahura, when you turn favorably toward your reciter of the sacred formula. May help clearly seen be made manifest through the raised hands, so that it may set us in well-being. 50.6. Zarathushtra is the one who, through the sacred formula, carries his voice to Mazda, allied with Asha in reverence. May the Creator of wisdom instruct my tongue’s direction, so that I may guide through Vohu Manah. 50.7. I will yoke for you the swiftest coursers, broad in their victories through your praise—powerful through Asha and Vohu Manah, Mazda. With these, come here for my help. 50.8. With the steps renowned as those of vitality, I will circle around you, Mazda, with outstretched hands. I will approach you through Asha and the reverence of the upright, and through the skill of Vohu Manah. 50.9. With these acts of worship I will come before you, praising you, Mazda, through Asha and the deeds of Vohu Manah. When I rule over my reward through Asha as I wish, may I become, in wisdom, one who fulfills the desires of the generous. 50.10. Whatever actions I have performed, whatever deeds I will perform, and whatever is worthy of sight through Vohu Manah—the lights of the sun, the radiant days—all are for your praise through Asha, Mazda Ahura. 50.11. I will declare myself your praiser, Mazda, and remain so as long as I have strength and power through Asha. May the Creator of existence advance through Vohu Manah what is made real in accordance with truth and what, by his will, most renews existence. 50.12. Through Spenta Mainyu and Best Mind, through Asha, and through action and word, they grant him Wholeness and Immortality: Ahura Mazda through Dominion and Armaiti. Through Spenta Mainyu and Best Mind, through Asha, and through action and word, they grant him Wholeness and Immortality: Ahura Mazda through Dominion and Armaiti. Asha is good; it is best.

We worship those male and female beings whose goodness in worship Ahura Mazda knows in accordance with Asha. ### Yasna 51 — Vohukhshathra Gatha Homage to you, truthful Gathas. 51.1. Good, desirable Dominion is the most choice portion. It moves among those who distribute it, even through vitality, by deeds in Asha. Mazda, let us now perform what is best for us. (Repeat:) Good, desirable Dominion is the most choice portion. It moves among those who distribute it, even through vitality, by deeds in Asha. Mazda, let us now perform what is best for us. 51.2. Mazda Ahura, reveal these things to me first through Asha, and also through you, Armaiti. Through Vohu Manah, grant your Dominion to my desire; grant saving power for praise. 51.3. Let those who serve you through their deeds draw near to hear you, Ahura, with the tongue’s words of Asha and Vohu Manah—those for whom you, Mazda, are the first promoter. 51.4. Where is the one who comes for protection? Where is mercy? Where will reconciliation arise? Where is sought renown? Where is Asha? Where is Spenta Armaiti? Where is Best Mind? Where is your Dominion, Mazda? 51.5. I ask all these things: how the herdsman, upright in his deeds and wise through reverence, can find the cow in accordance with Asha; and how he, ruling and perceptive, may recognize the correct judgment for the two parties. 51.6. Whoever gives what is better than good, and whoever advances it for his choice—Ahura Mazda grants it through Dominion. But he gives what is worse than evil to the one who does not distinguish it, at the final turning point of existence. 51.7. Give me, you who fashioned the cow, the waters, and the plants, Wholeness and Immortality through the most beneficent Mainyu, Mazda—strength and endurance through Vohu Manah for the proclamation. 51.8. I will indeed declare to you, Mazda—for one should speak to the knowing—what misery awaits the deceitful and what happiness the one who has upheld Asha. For the reciter of the sacred formula who speaks to the knowing will be joyful. 51.9. Through your red fire, Mazda, give the two parties the satisfaction you established through molten metal, as a sign among living beings: ruin for the deceitful and saving power for the truthful. 51.10. But the person who seeks to destroy me otherwise than this, Mazda, is an offspring of the Lie’s creation. I call Asha to myself, together with good reward, against all those who are malicious. 51.11. Who is the allied man for Spitama Zarathushtra, Mazda? Who has consulted with Asha? Who has Spenta Armaiti? Who, upright, has been recognized through Vohu Manah as fit for the Maga? 51.12. The Kavi’s Vaepya did not satisfy him at the winter crossing of the earth—Spitama Zarathushtra—when he stopped him there, though his two draft animals were trembling from travel and cold. 51.13. Thus the Daena of the deceitful person destroys his true being. His soul will wail openly at the Chinvat Bridge, revealed by his own deeds and by his tongue, having lost the paths of Asha. 51.14. The Karapans are not allies of the established order, nor do they properly care for the cow through herding. By their own deeds and teachings, that teaching will finally place them in the House of the Lie. 51.15. When Zarathushtra announced the reward for the members of the Maga, Ahura Mazda was the first to come to the House of Song beyond. With Good Mind and Asha, I intend to win those saving benefits for you. 51.16. Kavi Vishtaspa attained this through the Dominion of the Maga and along the paths of Good Mind: the insight that Spenta Mazda Ahura conceived through Asha. Thus may it be taught to us for happiness. 51.17. Frashaoštra Huogva showed me the precious form belonging to the good Daena. May sovereign Ahura Mazda grant him the possession he desires, so that he may attain the glory of Asha. 51.18. Wise Jamaspa Huogva chooses that insight, together with the splendor of his possessions, through Asha. He knows the Dominion of Good Mind. Give me that, Ahura Mazda, as support from you. 51.19. That man, Maidyoimaha Spitama, devotes himself to him, knowing through the Daena. Seeking existence, he declares Mazda to be the judge; through the deeds of life, he seeks what is better. 51.20. May all of you, united in purpose with us, give us that saving power through Asha and Good Mind, with words by which those worshiping Armaiti show reverence. Mazda, remain awake and ready to support us. 51.21. The person made beneficent through Armaiti, through insight, words, deeds, and Daena, causes Asha to prosper. Ahura Mazda gives Good Dominion through Good Mind. I ask him for that good reward. 51.22. Whoever Ahura Mazda knows to be best for worship because of Asha—I will worship all such people by their own names, those who have existed and those who now exist, and I will approach them with honor. 51.23. Desirable Good Dominion is the most fully allotted share. Even with an offering, it comes among those who discern through deeds in Asha. Mazda, may we now perform that best thing. (..)

The best wish of Zarathushtra Spitama has been proclaimed: that Ahura Mazda grant him rewards through Asha for his entire lifetime—a good existence—and that those who serve and heed him do so through the words and deeds of the good Daena. (Twice): The best wish of Zarathushtra Spitama has been proclaimed: that Ahura Mazda grant him rewards through Asha for his entire lifetime—a good existence—and that those who serve and heed him do so through the words and deeds of the good Daena. 53.2. May they attend him with their minds, words, and deeds, for Mazda’s satisfaction and praise. Kavi Vishtaspa, the Zarathushtrian Spitama, and Frashaoštra committed themselves to the acts of worship and to the straight paths of the gift—the Daena that Ahura established for the benefactors. 53.3. And you, Pourucista, youngest daughter of Zarathushtra Spitama of the Haechataspa line: Mazda has appointed for you as master the one who adheres to Good Mind and to Asha. Therefore consult with your own understanding, and act most beneficently and generously through Armaiti. 53.4. I will indeed love and choose him whom she recognized as father and husband, as lord for the herding people, and also for the household. May radiant fellowship with those aligned with Asha, through Good Mind, bind me. May Ahura Mazda grant it to the good Daena for my entire lifetime. 53.5. I will speak these words to the young women entering marriage, and to you men as well: keep them in mind and understand them through your Daenas. Let each of you, through Asha, surpass the other in Good Mind. That will indeed be a good gain. 53.6. Let this truly apply to men and likewise to women. Let the one who follows the Lie see the retaliation coming from the Lie. I call the Lie’s advance upon him as its own father. Bad food will come to the body handed over to the far-carrying winds. Comfort will be lost by the deceitful, by those who abuse what was given. Through these things you destroy the existence of the mind. 53.7. And this will be your reward from this Maga as long as vital strength remains, founded on deepest conviction: what is declared both openly and beyond. Where the spirit of the deceitful person fails, you will lose that Maga through separation. Then, at the final turning, the last word will be yours. 53.8. Through these things, let all wrongdoers become objects of contempt and derision. Let them cry out under good rulers. Let peace put an end to murderous and bloodthirsty men, and let it bring settled peace to the inhabited communities. Let the greatest and strongest of mortals hold them in restraints, and let it happen quickly. 53.9. Through bad choices, fury harms your people with violence, injury, and ruin of the body. Where is the Ahura aligned with Asha who will take away their power over life, their hostility, and their arbitrary violence? That, Mazda, is your Dominion, through which you will give a better condition to the poor person who lives rightly. (..)
