Translated Text:
Wise One, I realized You as the first and the latest, and the patron of good mind, when I grasped You in my vision as the true creator of righteousness and the Lord of life's actions.
Summary Substance:
Zarathushtra realizes, by his searching sight, that God is the first and the latest—above time and age. He created both Good Mind and the Universal Law of Precision—two principles that wisely regulate the universe. He also watches over actions in one’s life.
Pondering Point:
“A keen sense of observation and deep contemplation is necessary to truly realize Lord Wisdom, the universe, and the principles that govern it.”
