Translated Text:
The person who belongs to progressive serenity,
promotes righteousness
with his intellect, words, deeds, and conscience.
The Wise Lord grants him
dominion through good mind.
I too shall pray for such a good reward.
Commentary:
In order to emphasize the point of the preceding stanza, Zarathushtra paraphrases his statement: A person who enjoys progressive serenity and increasing tranquility promotes precision and righteousness with his thoughts, words, deeds, and, above all, with his conscience; he acquires sovereignty and self-reliance through his good mind. It is for such a noble cause that Zarathushtra offers his prayers.
Pondering Point:
“Enjoy peace and possession of sound mind and body, and promote the living world with good thoughts, good words, and good deeds.”
