iam from quetta balochistan there is a parsi community here and are well respected by the locals,actually iam intrested in to know about the zoroastain religion and parsi community,histroically we balochs were believers of zoroastain as we call it[atish parast]there are some arecological signs in balochistan.thanks with my respect to the parsi community of pakistan.
parsi community,iam really sorry to interrupt in between you but i have a question to be answered to gain knowledge,a baloch leader and scholar told in is written interview that the best and the great book he has read is of zartusht as we call it and more interesting to he told that the holy book of zartusht is written in acient pahlavi dialect which is atcually balochi language.now please someone help me in which parsi site i can find my answer.thanks
any one is wellcomed to enrich my knowledge about zartosht religion.[dellttaa.seeveen@gmail.com]
Hi I am a lecturer of Psychology . I am doing my Ph.d. on Perceptions regarding Parsees. I am most delighted to come across your website . The information provided is going to be of immense help to me . I understand the great deal of efforts on part of your team for this very comprehensive website. THANK YOU SO MUCH and God bless you.
Hi Can somebody please tell me where the “sugar mixes in milk” story has come from? It is attributed to Kisse Sanjan but I have not found it there. There is also another story of ‘mixing like gold ring in milk’., but again I have not found its origin. Thanks and God bless you.
Hi Zarin,
How are you ..? my name is Sobby Javed i can send you the whole story of “sugar mixes in milk” just email to this address (sobbyjaved@yahoo.co.uk) i will wait for your email. asas i will get your email i will send you the word doc. file.
Thanks.
Hi Zarine!
There seems to be more truth and sense in the “gold ring” story. I am unaware of the (authentic) origin, but it was narrated to me, many, many years ago (I am almost 72) by my father – “Baji” Mistry, advocate, Bombay. The explanation is : the locals were very apprehensive of the people who had landed on thier shores, thinking them to be another clan of the Mughals already in India.
However, after some years they realised they these newcomers had kept to themselves and were not one bit aggressive, the local chieftain sent across the pot of milk, as a gesture of peace. The Zoroastrian High Priest gently placed a gold ring, careful not to spill…..carrying the meaning and conveying :”We are a pure race, you are a pure race; we will merge with you, however, we shall maintain our identity, just as milk will not tarnish gold nor gold affect the milk…”
hi,zarin sethna,would you please explain the logic behind your questions are they related to psycology iam afraid not?dellttaa.seeveen@gmail.com
Hi Amin.The questions I am refering to are actually about the famous migration story of the Parsees from Iran to India. Every Parsee child grows up hearing them. I am searching for the origin of these. Glad to know of your interest in Zoroastrianism .
Hi Percy Jamshedwala. I think ‘Percy’ is short for Persepollis, our famous ancient and holy capital ccity in Iran. I may be wrong but it seems most likely. Parsees have been adopting the names of Iranian cities like ‘Shiraz’, ‘Yazd’, etc. Maybe to keep the connection alive. ‘Persis’ which is a girl’s name means ‘ a lady from Persia’.Hope I have been of some help.Bye and God bless you.
respected zarin sethna,thanks for answering me,history and psychology are my subjects i have a small library of mine at home.it may sound strange to you iam by nature attached to history from my boyhood,once traveling on balochistan coast in 1983 my sixth sense told me that alexander the great may had passed from this route,when i asked my father he said yes alexander did passed this route returning from india.
In zartusht calender name of a day called[GOVAD]meaning wind.in balochi language wind is called [GOVAT] what i mean to say that acient pahlavi language and present balochi languages are sister languages like german and english.Balochs were driven out of kerman first by iranian king nausherwan and then by the invading seljuk turks.
Hi Kamal, Regards the meaning of the word ‘Zaraius’. The term ‘Zar’ definately means gold in Persian and also in Sanskrit. ‘Zarin’ means made of gold and ‘ Zari work’ is the embroidary with golden thread.Hence the Zar part of the name signifies something to do with gold. The suffix ‘ius’ is similar to Daraaius or Porous , If you could contact some Persain scholar, you can combine the two and get the meaning. Bye for now and God bless you.
hi,zarin sethna i will try to answer your question the origin of[where the sugar mixes with milk?]the tragedy with the history is that emotionalism attached with an historical event changes the reality of the event to legend,when the imegrants from persia or pars actually [fars]as the language is called farsi became to known as parsies believers of zartushtra[the prophet]came to india by sea by land it was not possible,landed on the shore of gujrat first they were not wellcomed by the gujrati raja he sent a bowl full of milk to the parsies indicating that they have no place for them in return the parsies put sugar in milk indicating friendship as it is friendship is the sweetist part of human nature,here we cant ignore the historical fact that persians were equally civilized to the romans,today everyone else knows the parsies had given more to india than they have taken,the other part of your question[every parsi child grows up asking about the famous migration]its an psychological reaction of their up bringing because parsies have the will and love for their blief thats why up to today they have saved their identy now parsies are a beautifull part of india.hope for your reply.thanks
Hi Amin. Thanx so much for your help. Actually, the story you have given me has traditionally been attributed to a book – ‘Kisseh Sanjan’- written by Boman Kekobad in 16th century which describes the story of the migration to India. However, as part of my research , when I looked up the book, I could not find the reference there nor in any of the versions or translations. In fact another story says that it was a gold ring that was dipped in the milk and not sugar as sugar melts and looses its identity while gold not only retains its distinctiveness but also adds to the value of milk. The sources of these stories , even if they are folklore or legend loaded with emotional content, need to be located for the purpose of empirical research.Thanx for the lovely compliments to our community and good to know you have such high regards.Bye and God bless you.
Hi Zarine!
Further to my earlier mail, sent a few minutes ago….I had not scrolled down to this post of yours. continuing….that gold adds to the value of milk would be largely unacceptable, since that would imply that the Zoroastrians are a better lot than the locals! Nobody would accept that! As I said earlier, the gold will not affect – spoil – the milk, and the milk will not tarnish the gold….we will merge with you, but retain our identity….That would be acceptable to the other side. Right?

Ronnie Mistry, Perth, WA
If we understand history realistically it has a lot of wisdom to which takes us in depth of human nature,when the arabs invaded [fars]persia when we discover the propaganda of time infact the arabs were barbaric people they forced the occuppied nations to speak their language and their religon,only the jews saved their language and religion by escaping to europe in mass migration while the parsies who left persia were a small number of people belonged to noble status such as highly intelluactuals,rich families higher class belonging to the kings court,now today we can see the social efforts the parsi community is doing in bombay,karachi and else where.the parsi community is the most highly educated in pakistan.

I would like to congradulate you on your site. I would also add that it lacks any links on conversion to zoroastrianism. There is a growing interest among iranians to learn about their ancester’s faith.
Best regards
There are a lot of articles on the subject and you may read them at http://tenets.zoroastrianism.com/
zartushtism will rise again in persia.
Hi Amin – Please advise WHEN.

Guys,
That was extremely thoughtful of you all to send us all a reminder to register for the voters’ list.
Thanks for caring.

1.Ba naame yazad 2. Sepash Akenarahe 3.Nameh Khavar 4.Chithrem Buyaat.
I would like to know when to pray these following prayers and their meaning
There are many good and committed candidates standing for BPP Election who are promising to bring vast change in the present set up, which to my knowledge is very difficult. Is it possible to satisfy each and every person who are facing Housing and education problems?
This requires people with good qualification background, experience in fields like housing, education and a real philanthropist who would like to share his skill and wealth showered upon him by Lord Ahuramazda.
Can some one name a few of these candidates contesting BPP election?
We would like to avoid putting any names online – either for or against any candidate or group of candidates.
The profiles and manifestoes are all given in the BPP Elections Section, which are available for all to read, consider and then take a final judgement.

hello, i have a querry that”if parsi are the followers of aryans then how and why islam has the eefect on the religion even parsi religion came much before islam .by islam effect i mean the names of muslim and parsi match.why so ?”
Parsis have taken on PERSIAN names & not Muslim names..Cyrus ,Darius , Jamsheed existed from 300BC until Arabs/Muslims came to power in about 600AD.Some of the names are also from Avestan scripts which could be before 300BC.
Infact Muslims of Iran , Iraq if you have noticed have roots of Persian names.

Dear All
I am a Zoroastrian person living in Iran. I work for UNHCR in the North-West of Iran in city called Orumieh which is a very ancient city. People of here, Believe in our religion a lot and they do respect us a lot. They have some beliefs which are very interesting, e.g. They believe that the Tomb of Zoroastra’ mother is in Village close to Orumieh Called “Abni”, or they say the name of “Doghdoo” is an Azari name and…
Considering the issue, I am planning to have next “MEHREGAN Festival” here in Orumieh on the seashore of Orumieh Lake (CHI CHEST LAKE) which is very historical name for us in our religion.
Now, those who wish to participate in this ceremony, are more than welcome to write me on cheshmey@unhcr.org
Any comment on this activity is more than welcomed also the agenda of travel will also be shared with those who may wish to visit Iran and participate in this ceremony.
Thanks to all
Yours truly, Arash Cheshmeyee
Dear Arish,
What you say is very interesting. According to various sources Zoroaster lived in a place called Bacteria (N. Afganistan),some put the date 9000Bc.How far is Orumieh from N.Afganistan or say say Terhan.More over Zorastrian were never buried & hence I have doubts this could be her tomb.
Have any bones found in the tomb then carbon dating will reveal the approx year of her of her death.Iam also keen to know what religious ritual you follow for marriage & death.
Do u wear Surda & Kusti.Are ther any fire temples in Orumieh
I am a zorastrian & would have loved to come to Orumieh,but will not be able to make it.
Phiroze
Hi Phiroze, I visited Iran in 2008. I was given to understand the Zarathostis (particularly in Tehran) do not wear the Sudra and Kusti. The same is worn only when they visit the Atash Kadehs. However, in Yazd, they do. The Atashbans of the AtashGahs asked us if we had any sudras for them. The fires of the Atash Kadehs and the Atash Gahs in Iran are well tended. There is HOPE.
I love reading the articles on your site. In fact I do not delete them till I have read them a cuple of times to learn
more about our wonderful religion.
Regards and all the best
You have a very fantastic website, It is excellent, I enjoyed it a lot. It was fascinating. Thank you so much for your effort.

Hi,
I am looking for a school friend of my mine by the name Zarine Hormasji (current surname maybe Ganjia). We were together at Queen Mary School, Mumbai & last met in 1975. I currently live in the US & many of the old school friends are holding a class reunion in Mumbai in Dec 2010. It would be nice if we got information on Zarine so we can connect with her & invite her for the get together. Hoping that I get a reply from you soon.
Thanks,
Jyoti Damle Hegde.
Hi!
It is a bit too late now, your reunion was last December. Did you locate Zarine Hormasji?
I was at Queen Mary School for just a few years.
I too knew of a Zarine Hormasji, only child, who lived with her parents, across Chambala Hill Hospital.
If this is the same Zarine Hormasji and if you have located her, then please do send me the information.
I too live in USA.
Thanks

I am Sreekumar from Calicut. Studied at Malabar Christail College, 1965- 70.
Army took me away from Calicut immediately after college, and hence lost touch with most of my class mates, now trying to reconnect.
Trying to trace out a classmate of mine.
Her Sir name was Dastur and she studied with me for Pre Degree class in 1965-67.
I remember she used to stay at the Anjuman Bagh at Calicut.
I am told by Mr Darius Marshall, the head of the lone family staying at Calicut presently that her family has relocated to Mumbai. For some time before she moved out, she had practised law.
Appreciate your help to locate her.
Warm regds

If I am attending a Navjot ceremony, what do I give as a gift to the kid and parents? What are the Dos and Don’ts at the ceremony – as a guest?
Thank you.
Dear Trustees
It is with deep regret that I write to you the following incident which happened to me which has shattered my belief that the trustees are able to take corrective action to protect the properties which are under their custody.
I am Jimmy Gandhy residing in Panthaky Baug ownership building.On June 6th 2010 my flat was broken into & over 10 lacs of jewellery was stolen .
I spent that whole night at the police station filing an FIR & since then I have run pillar to post of the various police stations & investigations cell to recover the money.
Thru my own eforts I was able to recover about 5% of the stolen jewelery after a period of 2 months.
The theft took place at 7.00pm in a time where there would be maximum public around .
The major reason for this incredible theft (as the thief who were caught recounted to us) was that the Baug security was totally lax & non existent .
I met Parvez Driver the secretary of the Baug at the Police station the same night & his interest was to get the security guards who were taken into custody released.
For him the theft was of little consequence.
I am only bringing this to your attention so that you take corrective measures immediately to installa proper security system so that others do not suffer the same fate as my family whose hard earned earnings were wiped out overnight & who went thru this trauma & suffered silently without a sliver of help from any one.I shudder to think that if you are not able to take care of the baugs how can you pride yourself of having done some great work on various platforms. You should actually hide your head in shame.
I have no axe to grind with the BPP trustees BUT suppose this had happened to one of your kilt would you have remained quiet ?
It is indeed shocking that even after 6 months not one person from the trustees has cared to enquire what help if any is required.
I shudder to think what would have happened to a poor parsi if all his life long savings were wiped out.
I would request that the trustees should think hard over this incident & strenthen immediately the security systems
before planning expansions .
I do hope I get some reply on the corrrctive action taken as if I dont I will be forced to approach the charity commissioner as I would deem you all unfit to run the Trust.
Mind you I am not interested in any dole that the BPP would give as god has given me & my family all that I can ask for. I just do not want this repeated to other parsi staying in BPP run Baugs .
Are there any Zarathushtis from Turkmenistan or other CIS countries on this list
Dear Mr. Jimmy Gandhy,
I was astonished to read about your incident to-day. I suggest, you must approach charity commissioner’s office immediately. There is still hope for this country to come up. Keep faith in Almighty God. All the best. God bless you.

I just saw your website for the first time and found it very strange to have a prominent link to Swami Vivekanand on your Homepage! Maybe a recording of a Jashan, Wedding or Navjote might be more appropriate. What do you think?
Hi Kaiomarz – I agree. Why link a Swami? How about linking our religious sites of Iran instead and also religious ceremonies.

Dear Rita,
Thank you very much for your comments and your nomination.
I have not found any HINDI translation of the book Zend Avesta. I think Parsis should publish the HINDI translation of the entire Zend Avesta.
Could someone please guide me to an application that gives me Parsi calender ROJ days & MAHINO, along with my regular English dates, on my Android phone & my Windows Laptop.
