Translated Text:
Wise One, where are Your devotees
who comprehend good mind,
and despite retrogression and failure,
attend to inherited doctrines with wisdom?
I have none besides You.
Therefore, protect me and my people through righteousness.
Commentary:
Once dedicated to the cause and comprehending the circumstances with good mind, one is not deterred by initial failures. One continues to wisely work for the mission one feels is their inheritance. Zarathushtra knows no one else except Mazda. He prays for support for himself and his companions as they work on right basis.
Pondering Point:
“Failures should not deter from staying on course.”
