Transliterated Text:

ýê âyat ashavanem
divamnem hôi aparem xshyô
daregêm âyû temanghô
dushhvarethêm avaêtâs vacô
têm vâ ahûm dregvañtô
shyaothanâish hvâish daênâ naêshat.

Translated Text:

Whoever goes over to the righteous,
enjoys a bright future.
But the wrongful lives a long life of darkness,
evil splendor and woeful words,
because it is on account of his deeds,
that his conscience leads him to it.

Commentary:

Bright future awaits the person who chooses righteousness. A long period of suffering with dark thoughts and hard words meets the wrongful. His awakening conscience tells that this is because of his evil deeds.

Pondering Point:

“If you choose to be righteous, a bright future awaits you, but if you choose to be deceitful, then misery is your reward.”


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).
