What is the term for the seven divine beings in Zoroastrianism?

The Zoroastrian term for the seven divine beings is Amesha Spenta.

Amesha Spenta is usually translated as “Immortal Holy Ones” or “Bounteous Immortals.” In its most familiar sense, the term refers to seven divine entities or emanations associated with Ahura Mazda, the supreme deity of Zoroastrianism. They represent qualities and aspects of the good creation rather than functioning simply as gods in a pantheon.

The seven are Spenta Mainyu, Vohu Manah, Asha Vahishta, Khshathra Vairya, Spenta Armaiti, Haurvatat, and Ameretat. Their names are commonly connected with ideas such as creative spirit, good purpose, truth, dominion, devotion, wholeness, and immortality. In later Zoroastrian thought, each is also associated with a part of creation, such as animals, fire, earth, water, or plants.

The term can occasionally be used more broadly for beneficent divine beings, which explains why translations vary. However, in standard quiz and religious-studies usage, “the seven” specifically means the Amesha Spenta. They are not Buddhist bodhisattvas, Hindu devas, or Christian archangels.
