Ashem Vohu is one of the most important prayers of the Zoroastrian religion. Recited by High Priest Dastoorji N. D. Minochehr-Homji. This prayer is a mantra, focussing the mind on Asha (variously translated as Order, Truth, Rightness). The language is archaic and the syntax is full of ambiguities, so interpretations vary widely. (Translation is after Humbach, Elfenbein, Skjærvø, 1991)
