-Hormzd Yasht §§ 3, 4.
"Then Anura Mazda replied O Spitama Zarathushtra, the names of
ours i.e. of Amesha Spentas. -That portion of Manthra Spenta is the most
courageous, most victorious, most glorious, most efficacious, most overpowering,
most health-giving, most destroying the ills of daevas and
men; it is the most attainable for meditation in the entire corporeal
world; it is the most purifying of life in the entire material existence."
(b.) "Aat aokhta Zarathushtro froit me tat nama framruidhi ashaum ahura
mazda yat te asti mazishtemcha, vahishtemcha, sraeshtemcha,
yaskerestememcha, verethraghnyotememcha, baeshazyotemcmcha

yatavo pairikaoscha yat mam nae chish taurvayat, noit daevo, naedha
mashyo, noit yatavo, naedha pairikao."
-Hormazd Yasht §§ 5, 6.
" Then Zarathushtra said "0 Ahura Mazda the Holy; declare unto me that name of
Thine, which is the greatest, the best, the most excellent, most efficacious, most
overpowering, most health-giving, most repelling ills of daevas and men so that I must
shatter all daevas and men, so that I must shatter all sorcerers and fairies in order that
none might annoy me-neither the daeva nor man, neither sorcerers nor fairies."
(c.) “Yezi vashi Zarathushtra, avao tbaeshao taturvayo daevanam
mashyanamcha, yathwam pairikanamcha, sathram kaoyam karafnamcha,
mairyanamcha, bizangranam, vehrkanamcha chathvarezan-
