Based on the sponsor life story a literary and mythical text was written. Then it was translated to Avestaei and Pahlavi transcripts by Professor Emrahim Mirzaie Nazer. In the life story the main and important happenings of the sponsors' life have been expressed in an allegorical and allusive language.

Summary of the mythical life story:

There was a hidden transcendental love between two lovers which was not expressed for 2400 years and by no means was similar to mundane ephemeral loves. In this love the body was considered as annihilation and destruction. The lovers imagined each other in form of a sculpture and had raised a kind of transcendental love in their minds. The Helia sculpture is symbol of a suffering love. With a very sadly face, Helia is looking toward the ground as sign of a mundane love and at the same time her hands have raised toward the sky, as sign of a transcendental love. She has a shawl in her hands and two flowers on her hair which are signs of beloved.

The whole sculpture is the dawning sign of the two lovers creation. In their creation dawn, the zephyr has been breezing like a nightly lyric for Helia's repose, and the water has been flowing as the beauty fountain and the ground soil was the place, where Helia has been walking on it gracefully. Since the first visiting moment of her beloved (beloved aged) they became all eyes on each other for 2400 years and without saying any word they sang all mundane loves for each other through their romantic everlasting look; and as their love has been a transcendental one so there is not any sign of their true love in what they were singing for each other.

There was a single love flower on Helia's hair and when the beloved decides to join and unite with Helia through the transcendental incandescence of the sun, some signs of uniting lover and beloved is being created and remained; the first sign is the shawl of the beloved and the other is a flower exactly like the one that Helia had on her hair; the two flowers are signs of lover and beloved. Helia takes the shawl in her hands to show it to the universe and at the same moment the time freezes and Helia converts to a sculpture as a symbol of a transcendental love between two lovers.

The myth of Helia

Creation came into existence by the Creator. A hirrible breath breathed a start into the life of time, and God, the Compassionate, created the light bright of sun out of darkness. The sun saw seven heavens around her and God, the Almighty, named her mother sun, The mother of the seven heavens. The mother sun had the Master Creators hand by her and gave birth to the four elements out of the endless root of the sky. The wind was whirled to sing, the water was set on the run, the fire was made to wind, the soil was roused to movement and the plants were grown. She shed her light on the four heavenly elements and put them under her command. The four elements praised the sun and the sun was the mother of the seven heavens. The mother sun let out a shine and created the beautiful figure of a lady named Helia. The wind was a hymn, a lullaby to lull the heavenly lady to sleep. The water ran a rolling spring for lady Helia. And the soil was blessed to have the lady on it. The fire turned a whirl as deep as the universe for the ladys inner warmth when she comes down to earth. The plants bloomed a single flower for it to sit on Helias hair. Helia suddenly got excited. The sun said to her, "Darling! Now its time you fell in love and you will harbor the desiring and trembling hearts on earth". Helias eyes began to shine, she said nothing, only sighed, an (aah), and this was the first cry of love. Helia heard this from inside. At that moment lady Helia stepped on earth. The fire bestowed her the tribute of the warmth of love. The wind sang the loveliest song. The water eased down the crazy and high-as-sky waves which had frightened all the creatures. Red water lilies bloomed and made a carpet to caress the feet of the heavenly lady. An old-aged man approached from so a far. Helia and the man came face to face. For 3000 years face to face, looking each other in the eyes. Then Helia opened up and Said, "I love you". The mans heart started to shiver and replied,"I love you too". The silence came down to earth and ruled the world all over. The two alone, only talked their eyes, Helia and the old mans eyes for 24000 years, the two sang in each others eyes the song of all the love ever to be created in the hearts of all the humans on the earth. But there was no hint of their love in those songs. The old-aged realized their love is heavenly unlike the mundane love. In silence he said to himself, "Its lovely that Helia I and become whole-hearted and join together in a heavenly love". Then the old-aged whose eyes echoed a sigh twisted around the root of his manly burnt voice said with his eyes to Helia, "I want to reach into the depth of your heart. Because our love is just a drop of the ever deep ocean of love, in it the body is ruined to nothing. From now on, only your figure represents my love, and your solitude has the sing of my love deep inside". The old-aged reached inside Helias heart with the glim of sun. A deep and heavy sigh took over all the creatures, quaked the four elements, and the earths silence broke. The cry of Helias broken heart quaked the seven heavens. The flames of fire burnt the sky. The most tremendous waves reached the sky and a storm flooded the whole universe. The soil broke apart and desert came out of it. Suddenly Helia ruled silence. In the silence of times, there was love-sickness created. A turban was left from the old-aged resting on the red water lilies. A beautiful flower from Helias hairclip lay on the turban flaunting. Helia put the flower on the margin of the curl of her hair. The two flowers were together, two signs of the same sign, the sign of a love. The lady took the turban to show it to all the creatures. And at that time the time stopped. Yes, as it is, lady Helia is standing on the earth, sad, filled with love pain, and looking down, taking the turban with her fingers, with her one hand toward the sky and her other hand on her heart, and two flowers on her hair, yes she is at the onset of creation, the myth of two lovers.
