Translated Text:

 

What is Your guidance and what is Your wish?

Is it for praise, or is it for veneration?

Wise One, declare it while we listen,

and the reward for following Your guidance.

Show us, through righteousness,

the paths to self-reliance of good mind.

 

(Gathas: Song 7 - stanza 12)

 

 

Summary Substance: Zarathushtra asks and then supplies the subtle answer: The

paths

leading through righteous to the goal -- self-reliance that enjoys good mind.

This is

what the guidance is for, what the Wise One wishes. God does not want praise

and

veneration. All Mazda wishes is that we are guided to our goal. It is us who

praise and

venerate God out of love.

 

Pondering Points: The goal guided by Mazda: Self-reliance based on good mind.
