one name is `Righteousness'. @Similar writing is noticed in Hormazd Yasht.
In this Yasht the Creator Hormazd is recognised by us by various names,
which are approximately seventy. Moreover, at present, we have 101 names
of the Creator Hormazd in Pazand language and these names are being
remembered by the yaozdãthregar priest whilst performing the Yasna
ceremony. |
