<blockquote>According to tradition Zoroaster was thirty, the time of ripe wisdom, when revelation finally came to him. This great happening is alluded to in one of the Gathas and is tersely described in a Pahlavi [Middle Persian] work. Here it is said that Zoroaster, being at a gathering [called] to celebrate a spring festival, went at dawn to a river to fetch water.</blockquote>
<blockquote>Conforme a tradição, Zoroastro tinha trinta anos, a época da sabedoria madura, quando a revelação finalmente veio a ele. Este grande acontecimento é mencionado em um dos Gathas e descrito sucintamente em uma obra Pahlavi [persa médio]. Aqui é dito que Zoroastro, estando em uma reunião [convocada] para celebrar um festival de primavera, foi ao amanhecer a um rio para buscar água. </blockquote>


<blockquote>He waded in to draw [the water] from midstream; and when he returned to the bank ... he had a vision. He saw on the bank a shining Being, who revealed himself as Vohu Manah ‘Good [Mind]’; and this Being led Zoroaster into the presence of Ahura Mazda and five other radiant figures, before whom ‘he did not see his own shadow upon the earth, owing to their great light’. And it was then, from this great heptad [or group of seven beings], that he received his revelation.”<ref>Boyce, ''Zoroastrians'', p. 19.</ref></blockquote>
