Yazata

Yazata is a term from ancient Persian religion, particularly Zoroastrianism, referring to divine beings or benevolent spirits that embody good qualities like truth, order, and righteousness. They serve as intermediaries between Ahura Mazda, the supreme god, and humans, guiding and protecting the moral order of the universe. Yazatas are honored and invoked in worship, symbolizing virtues that promote harmony and moral integrity in the world. Their veneration reflects the Zoroastrian emphasis on moral responsibility and the ongoing battle between good and evil.
