Translated Text:

Now, Wise One, the person who wants to destroy us,
is indifferent to this doctrine.
He himself is the child of a wrong world,
and is one of the malefactors.
I invoke righteousness for mine,
so that it comes along with good reward.

Commentary:

Although assured of his mission’s success, Zarathushtra and companions have their enemies who are alien to his Divine Message. They are the products of a wrong world; as such, they are harmful. However, adhering fast and firm to the Universal Law of Righteousness, Zarathushtra knows that in spite of some difficulties, the final success would be his.

Pondering Point:

“In the face of the oppression of deceitful and evil people, call upon the righteous order of existence to be empowered to resist them.”

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).
