Sarosh
Sraosha (Avestan: 𐬯𐬭𐬀𐬊𐬴𐬀, romanized: sraoṣ̌a or 𐬯𐬆𐬭𐬀𐬊𐬴𐬀, səraoṣ̌a; Persian: سروش), is the Avestan name of the Zoroastrian yazata of "Conscience" and "Observance", which is also the literal meaning of his name.
In the Middle Persian commentaries of the 9th-12th centuries, the divinity appears as 𐭮𐭫𐭥𐭱, S(a)rosh. This form appears in many variants in New Persian as well, for example سروش, Sorūsh. Unlike many of the other Yazatas (concepts that are "worthy of adoration"), Soroush is also frequently referred to as the "Angel of Conscience" or "Voice of Conscience", which overlaps with both of his role as the "Teacher of Daena", Daena being the hypostasis of both "Conscience" and "Religion" and Guardian/Companion over the Chinvat Bridge. Soroush is also the Persian name of the angel Gabriel in Abrahamic religions, specifically the angel Jibril in Islam.
