Song 12.1 (Yasna 47.1)

Transliterated Text:

speñtâ mainyû vahishtâcâ mananghâ hacâ ashât shyaothanâcâ vacanghâcâ ahmâi dãn haurvâtâ ameretâtâ mazdå xshathrâ ârmaitî ahurô.

Translated Text:

To him who, through progressive mentality, performs his duties best in thoughts, words, and deeds in accordance with righteousness, the Wise God grants wholeness and immortality through sovereignty and serenity.

Summary Substance:

The progressive mentality is the creative and promotive faculty endowed in our mind by Mazda Ahura, the Super-Intellect Being. It makes us renovate and promote our environment, our world. One, who performs his duties in the best righteous manner, is granted wholeness, perfection, immortality, and eternity through their sovereignty, independence, serenity and tranquility.

Pondering Point:

“The Progressive Mentality (Spenta Mainyu) leads to Perfection and Immortality.”

ZARATHUSHTRIAN ASSEMBLY

Zarathushtrian Assembly was founded by a group of visionary Zoroastrians in 1990 to create a progressive platform for people of all backgrounds, regardless of current religious belief, world view, national origin, ethnicity, or personal interpretation of Zoroastrianism, to study the philosophy and teachings of Zoroaster (Zarathushtra), as taught in the Gathas (his thought-provoking mantras).
