Yashts

The Yashts (Middle Persian: 𐭩𐭱𐭲, yšt') are a collection of 21 hymns of worship composed in the Young Avestan language and dedicated to specific Zoroastriandivinities. Although they may have originally been part of a High Liturgy, in current practice, they can be recited by both lay people and priests within any setting.
