Post your Spanish religious-word together with it's English translation.

And, if you want, find a picture and post that as well...

Z

Zendavesta - Zendavesta

El Zendavesta que llegó a nuestros días está compuesto de fragmentos que integran un libro de poca extensión, algunos de los cuales parecen trozos escogidos por la tradición oral de un libro completo y acabado. El Zendavesta contiene las manifestaciones hechas por Ormuz a Zoroastro, y gran parte de la obra se compone de preguntas dirigidas por el profeta al Ser Supremo, Ahuramazda( o Ormuz), quien da siempre la respuesta deseada. Zoroastro comunicó luego a sus discípulos el resultado de sus conversaciones con la divinidad, por lo que puede sostenerse que él es el verdadero autor del Zendavesta, aunque no haya llegado a escribir parte alguna de este célebre código religioso.

Which, by the way, I just figured out what that city in California was named after.
