Translations:Srosh Baz/6/en

From Behdin

Explanation: The words from “Yathā Ahū Vairyō Zaotā” up to “vidhvāo mraotu” which are recited in every Niyāyesh, Gāh and Yasht after “fravarāne mazdayasnō” are borrowed from the yasna. Rāspi, i.e. the assistant priest sitting opposite the Zaotar, addresses him thus: “Yathā Ahū Vairyō zaotā frā mraute” implying that Zaotar may explain the excellences of “Yathā Ahū Vairyō” and the Religion of Zarathushtra to him. The Zaotar then recites. The Rāspi after having fully comprehended the excellences and grasping the essence of the Religion of Zarathushtra would now put them into practice and explain them to others.
