THOU ART LIGHT, AHURA MAZDA

THOU ART LIGHT, AHURA MAZDA



Thou art light, Ahura Mazda. Where thou art, there is light. Void of thee all is darkness.



Thou didst create light and bathe the heavens in the light of the sun. Thou didst fill the earth with light, thou didst cover the sky with thy light and thou didst illumine the world with a numberless silvern lamps at night.



Physical as is thy light, mental and moral and spiritual light is also thine, Ahura Mazda. Knowledge is the light of the mind, as truth is thy moral light and righteousness the light of the spirit. Light is life, when darkness is death and life is heaven, as darkness is hell. Everything good is light. I pray for light and more light and light again for my whole being from thee, 0 thou Fountain of light divine.
