This picture shows the fire temple of modern Yazd. Here, the Zoroastrians venerate the sacred and eternal fire. The winged figure in the upper façade is the visual aspect of the supreme god Ahuramazda, whose nature was disclosed by the prophet Zarathustra.
This is Yazd's "Fire Temple". The intimates meet there , but nobody apart form the Grand Priest , a descendant of the Magi , reciting the Avesta , has
access to the Saint of Saints where for the past 3000 years a fire burns in a brazen vessel. The fire itself is a representation of what is good.
