KHORSHED Neyăyesh Avesta to english

(May there be) homage11 unto these12 two eyes13 that18 (are) of * Ahura Mazda !15 (* Sun is considered the eyes of Ahura Mazda, also the moon.) 

When the Sun7 shines,12 there stand13 hundreds16 and thousands17 of spiritual14 yazatas.15 (These yazats) gather together20 that18 glory,19 (and) send it down.23  (And) spread26 that24 glory25 upon28 the earth27.

  When1 the Sun2 rises3  it becomes4 the means of purifying7 the earth5 (it becomes) the means of purifying10  waters,8  (flowing9, spring12 sea,15 stagnant18). (and), it becomes20 the means of purifying23 the righteous22 creation,21 which24 is25 of the Holy Spirit.26  For1 if2 the Sun3 were not4 to rise5 the demons7 here6 would destroy9  all8 (things and lives) that10 are11 in the seven regions12 Then any14 spiritual15 yazatas16 even would not find support in this material world. 

 

 
Khshnaothra1 Ahurahe Mazdăo.2 (May there be) the rejoicing,1 of Ahura Mazda.2

* The portion beginning from "satăyem zbăyem" up to "Ădel pădashăhi bizavăl băshad" appears to be a later addition because in the beginning of every Neyăyesh and Yasht there occurs in this way "Pa năme yazdăn Hormazd Khodăe awzuni gorje khoreh awazăyăd". but in this place after adding some epithets of the Creator Hormazd there occurs "Hormazd Khodăe Awazuni", etc. Another reason is that in the portion beginning with "Satăyem zbăyem" up to "Ădel pădshăhi bizvăl băshad" some Arabic words occur. Such as, hhăleke makhlulk, ar-ruzzăk kăder, etc., which do not occur in the Pazand introduction of other Avestan texts.

# Avesta word Sura as compared with Sanskrit shula is translated by me as `weapon'. According to my view a reference here is made about the weapon of Meher yazad or Srosh yazad. In its corroboration we get actual Avestan writing from other places. In para 96 of the Meher yasht it is stated that in order to smite the wicked and the sinful persons Meher yazata keeps a heavy mace in his hand. Moreover, it is stated in karda 12 of Srosh yasht large and in para 15 of Vendidăd 8 Frakart 19th, that Srosh yazata keeps a powerful weapon in his hands for smiting the skulls of demons. The original meaning of `Zarenumantem' is `wrathful' and I have derived the meaning `terrible, horrible' from it. Avesta word Zarenu = (German) Zorn = wrath, anger.

haom4 urvănem5 yazamaide,6 havăm7 fravashim8 yazamaide.9  We praise6 our own4 @ Fravashi5.   
@ Fravashi and soul are two quite different things, they are not one and the same as most of our Zoroastrians think. This will be clearly seen from this paragraph as well as from para 149 of Fravartin yasht and from yasna Hăs 26 and 55 respectively.
Fravashi, i.e. a spiritual element showing the path of goodness and heaven to the soul. About Fravashi, in the Avesta, it is mentioned that the Fravashis of all living beings, of those dead and those that shall be born hereafter, are different and varied. In support thereof see yasna Hă 24, para 5. Moreover, another meaning of `Fravashi', (similar to English Prototype), is also `Original specimen, original form, original root' of anything, e.g. the Fravashi of trees and plants is its root, seed. 
There is a spiritual element in the body of man which is responsible in the world beyond, for good or bad deeds done by him in this world; its name is `soul'. The soul attains heaven or hell in accordance with the deeds done by it in the world, see my translation of Vendidäd, Frakart 19, paras 27-32.

(see two cells above)
  # In the original Avesta this word is found as dative singular (tongue), its original meaning is the body. Darmesteter translates, "germs". 
Explanation : In order to reach the earth the light of the Sun and the Moon it is necessary to have air and `ether'. Without air and ether the light of the Sun and Moon cannot fall on this earth. 

Mithra, i.e. Meher, means the light; 

`Ram Khvăstar' is equivalent to `ether' and 

`Vayu uparo-kairyo' is the wind, air between the sky and the earth. 
Like the close relationship of light, air and ether, we find in the Avesta, allegorically, yazatas; it is the Khshnuman or propitiatory formula of Mithra, i.e. Meher yazad. `Răm Khvăstar' is associated with Meher yazad. Moreover, there occurs, `Răm Khvăstar' in the `Khshnuman' of Mino Răm. Besides, in the Khshnuman of Mino Răm there occurs `Vayu uparo-kairya' along with `Răm Khvăstar'. 
As per this allegory `Răm Khvăstar' and `Vayu uparo-kairya' and other yazatas stand to help the light of the Sun and the Moon to reach the earth. Without the help of these angels, natural light cannot fall upon the earth.

# All living things of this world enjoy their existence from the light of the Sun. Without it man, animal, bird, tree, etc., cannot subsist. Here the meaning of the word, `daevas', as mentioned in the notes is `Sarosh Băz', pp. 15-16, should be understood as "foul air, miasma, producing plague, means of disturbing prosperity" . 
@ or the power of repelling (the daevas) (Sanskrit pratishthă). Darmestetar translates the word by, "cannot withstand the daevas and oppose them."    
* According to Avestan writing, the entire Universe is divided into seven regions which are called `Keshvar'. Their names are :- (1) Arezahi (to the West), (2) Savahi (to the East), (3) fradadafshu (to the South-West), (4) vidadafshu, (to the south-east), (5) Vouru-bareshti (to the North-West), (6) Vouru-Jareshti (to the North-East), (7) Khvaniratha (in the centre of the above-mentioned six regions). Moreover, this last region called `Khvaniratha', is stated to be the largest and most splendid of all other regions. Even at present we call the entire universe as, `Hafte Keshvar Zamin'.

* If the meaning of Meher is taken as light, origin of light, body of light, as stated previously the significance of `the ponderous mace of Meher yazata for smiting the skulls of Demons' is to be understood figuratively as sharp rays of the Sun for destroying disease and plague-producing foul air. The meaning of `Daeva; in this place, as explained in the notes on pages 15-16 can be taken as `foul air'. Whatever foul air is accumulated owing to the absence of the Sun during the whole night, is destroyed by its brilliant light after the sunrise.

  @ Dr. Geldner takes the word `Zaothrăbyo (with libations) occurring in the para of `Ahe raya khvarenanghacha' of every Niăesh and every yasht with the preceding word "Yazăi" (I worship).

$ The above verb, `yazamaide' should be taken here again. `Haomayo' is first person plural of the word `haomi' (the performer of Haoma Ceremony). If the words `haoma yo' are taken separately they can be translated as : (We worship the Sun) with Haoma which is with milk (and) barsam (and that Haoma) which is with the thought, word and deed, with the skill of the tongue, and (with that Haoma which is prepared) with rightly spoken words9 for the ceremonial oblation.8 
  Explanation : (From the writings of the Avesta we have seen that the ceremonies of Haoma and Baresman, which are current at present in our holy Religion, were from the very ancient times, even prior to the advent of Zarathushtra. In the yasna Ha 9 (Havanim) it is stated that Vivanghăne, the father of King Jamshid; Ăthawyăn, the father of Faredoon; Asrat, the father of Keresasp, and Pourushaspa, the father of the Prophet Zarathushtra, performed the Haoma ceremony. Haoma twigs (Sanskrit Soma) are the twigs of a plant. These twigs are brought from Iran where they grow in large quantities. As a rule, fresh and green Haoma twigs should be used in the ceremonial act so that while pounding in the mortar (Hăvanim) juice will come out. These Haoma twigs should be regarded as strength giving and healthy medicine like several tonics used at present. We get the description of its excellence from Yasna Hă 9 and 10. In ancient times, prior to the advent of Zarathushtra, there existed a prophet by name Haoma, the discoverer of the method of extracting the Haoma-juice by pounding the Haoma twigs and of the introduction of the Haoma cult. 
  Like Haoma, the baresman, too, are the twigs of a certain kind of tree. This tree grows in Iran. Each twig is known as "Tăy". Nowadays, brass or silver wires are used in place of the original baresman twigs in our ceremonies. The number of these wires is not always used uniformly, but it varies according to the ceremony to be performed. It is not positively known who found the baresman ceremony, but its ceremony, too, like the cult of Haoma is most ancient and this is ascertained from the Răm Yasht. In the second `Kartak' of this yasht it is stated that King Hoshang of the Pishdadian Dynasty worhsipped Mino Răm yazata by means of Baresman on the Mount Alborz. In the first `kartak' of Sarosh Yasht Vadi (Large) it is stated that Srosh yazata was the first to worship the Creator, Ahura Mazda, by means of Baresman. 

With some special process and by reciting certain sacred verses of the Avesta, in the yazishn Găh (Găh = place), the priest (yaozdăthregar) draws milk from the she-goat in the purified goblet which is called "Jivăm".

  * For the explanation of Yenghe Hătăm, 
# This entire portion to be murmured is in Pazand. The reason being it is the Pazand language, which is different from that of the Avestä. Therefore it cannot be prayed loudly. This is so done as, recitation of a certain portion of the Avesta is left out after reciting the Păzand portion. Whatever Päzand passages that occur before the Avestan text or at its end are not to be recited in murmur but are recited loudly.

Explanation : Both these passages "Ahurănish" and "Ahmăi Raeshcha", are quoted here from yasna Ha 68, sections 10-11. In the same Hă or chapter some description about water is given, in which prior to "Ahurănish" the following appropriate words have come; "Yo vo ăpo vanguhish yazăite ahurănish ahurahe" etc. ... "ahmăi raeshcha khvarenascha ... dăyata" i.e. (the consecrator speaks of water.)! "Whosoever worships water, O !
