The Ha is known as “the Questions to the Lord,” as each of the verses, except the last, begins with a question to the Lord. The opening verse is a request to Ahura Mazda to let us know how He should be venerated, the implication being that earlier forms of worship were unacceptable, or at least, inappropriate. The next verse asks for the source of the Best Existence. It is declared that one who strives to bring this about through righteousness is a healer of existence. He seems to be suggesting that social amelioration through righteousness is the highest form of veneration. The Ha in a series of verses goes on to inquire about who created aspects of the natural order, the principles of the moral and social order, and the values and ideals of existence. These are, of course, rhetorical questions; the obvious answer being, Ahura Mazda.
These three Questions :
- How should The Nature (Supreme Being) be venerated (respected)?
- What is the source of the Best Existence?
- Who created aspects of the natural order?
It is not Ethical to answer these questions for another. The Student must pursue these Questions for The Self. This should be done with Logic in Pursuit of Truth.
These Questions should be asked with Socrates’ Who are we? Where are we going? Why are we here? How did we get here? What are we?
Take these Questions. Shelve them and Learn. Study. The Questions will come to you within The Journey. It is the Discovery of the Self in the Journey that these Questions come to you.
