The Avesta Khorda Avesta: Book Of Common Prayer is a religious text compiled by James Darmesteter. It is a collection of prayers and rituals used in the Zoroastrian religion, which originated in ancient Persia. The book is written in the Avestan language, which is an ancient Iranian language. The prayers and rituals in the book are meant to be used for daily worship, as well as for special occasions such as weddings and funerals. The text includes hymns to various deities, as well as instructions for performing rituals and offerings. The book also includes a section on the importance of moral and ethical behavior in the Zoroastrian faith. Overall, the Avesta Khorda Avesta is an important religious text for those practicing the Zoroastrian faith, and provides insight into the beliefs and practices of this ancient religion.They begged of her a boon, saying: Grant us this, O good, most beneficent Ardvi Sura Anahita! that we may overcome the assemblers of the Turanian Danus, Kara Asabana, and Vara Asabana, and the most mighty Duraekaeta, in the battles of this world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
