daena
Daena is a Zoroastrian concept representing insight and revelation, hence "conscience" or "religion." Alternately, ''Daena'' is considered to be a divinity, counted among the ''yazata''s.
==Nomenclature==
Daena is a feminine noun which translates to "that which is seen or observed". In ''Zoroastrianism: An Introduction to an Ancient Faith'', Peter Clark suggests that the term might also be tied to the Avestan root "deh" or "di-" to gain understanding.〔Clark, Peter (1998), ''Zoroastrianism: An Introduction to an Ancient Faith'', 1, Sussex: Sussex Academic Press: 69-70.〕
The Avestan language term – trisyllabic ' in Gathic Avestan and bisyllabic ' in Younger Avestan – continues into Middle Persian as ''dēn'', which preserves the Avestan meanings. For comparison, it is similar to Sanskrit ''dhénā'' which means thought, but thought in its higher and spiritual reaches. 〔 http://www.jstor.org/stable/3087593?seq=1#page_scan_tab_contents 〕 〔https://ia801700.us.archive.org/26/items/jstor-3087593/3087593.pdf 〕
