Ahura Mazda (; also known as Oromasdes, Ohrmazd, Ahuramazda, Hourmazd, Hormazd, and Hurmuz) is the creator deity and highest deity of Zoroastrianism  . Ahura Mazda is the first and most frequently invoked spirit in the Yasna. The literal meaning of the word Ahura is "lord," and that of Mazda is "wisdom."  Nomenclature ' Ahura' is cognate with the Vedic word 'asura', both meaning 'lord'. Finnish Indologist, Asko Parpola, traces the etymological root of Asura to *asera- of Uralic languages, where it means 'lord, prince'.Asko Parpola (2015), The Roots of Hinduism: The Early Aryans and the Indus Civilization, Oxford University Press, , pages 114-116 ' Mazda', or rather the Avestan stem-form Mazdā-, nominative Mazdå, reflects Proto-Iranian *mazdáH (a feminine noun). It is generally taken to be the proper name of the spirit, and like its Vedic cognate medhā́, means "intelligence" or "wisdom". Both the Avestan and Sanskrit words reflect Proto-Indo-Iranian *mazdʰáH, from Proto-Indo-European , literally meaning "placing () one's mind ()", hence "wise".
