The concept of God is the most important concepts in the sacred texts.
In these texts the attributes and characteristics of God are told through
the names, so that each name describes an aspect of God. In Avesta, as
a sacred book, God has several names included Ahura Mazda and 101
other names. Ahura Mazda, in Gahan, is God of wisdom who creates
heaven and earth. So the universe, which is full of goodness, is
considered as the act of God. Ahura Mazda is infinite and limitless but
the cosmos is finite and limited. Ahura Mazda is self-existing God and
Amesha Spantas, the divine sparks and manifestations, depend on Him.
Therefore, Ahura Mazda is inherently creative and benevolent and
these attributes are manifested through Spanta Mainyu, His holy
wisdom. This article tries to survey the names of God in Avesta and its
interpretation.
