Definition
Cosmic-truth-order-righteousness as received-ordinance — the Avestan asha understood specifically as gift-grade-ordinance from Ahura Mazda, received by the human as participation-in-cosmic-truth; the state of being-aligned-with-asha as ordinance-from-the-divine, not as self-generated rectitude. The Avestan register of the cosmic-truth-order convergence; the first of the asha-ṛta-ma'at triple-witness to enter YOUSPEAK.
