A Mehregan Prayer
Since Mehregan is the festival of love and friendship, we thought this Zoroastrian peace prayer is perfect for the occasion.
"We pray to God to eradicate all the misery in the world:
that understanding triumph over ignorance;
that generosity triumph over indifference;
that trust triumph over contempt;
that truth triumph over falsehood."
eradicate: destroy, get rid of
misery: sadness or suffering
triumph: victory, success
generosity: charity
contempt: lack of respect for something
