Английская Википедия:Asman
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Zoroastrianism sidebar Asman (Шаблон:Lang-ae) is the Avestan and Middle Persian name of the Zoroastrian divinity that is the hypostasis of the sky. Asman is the "highest heaven," and is distinguished from the firmament, Шаблон:Lang (Шаблон:Transl), which lies nearer the earth. The 27th day of the Zoroastrian calendar is dedicated to him. In the Veda, Шаблон:Lang (Шаблон:Transl) means 'sky'. It also means "stone" so the specific sense in reference to the sky is as "stony firmament".
In the Avesta, specifically in the Vendidad, the word is mentioned as being the first thing created.[1] The word is also the origination of the word Шаблон:Lang (Шаблон:Transl) in modern Persian and numerous languages of South Asia.[2]
