What an eye-opening article – thanks to Parsiana to publish the letters in their entirety and unedited between Nusli Wadia and the seven Dasturs of India. I see that of the seven, only two Dasturs namely, M. Meherjirana and Kaikobad Dastoor turned down Wadia’s request to re-enter our religion.
I look back and recall that I, along with my family flew back to India in March 1986 for my daughter’s Navjote ceremony to be performed by Dasturji Kaikobad at the Iranshah. Upon discovering this little bit of information on him through this read, it has certainly once again solidified our pride for him due to his piety, Godliness and his fervor for our religious rituals and practices. May Ahura Mazda Bless his soul!
Being an avid reader on varied religious topics, including the Shahnameh, this article readily reminded me of a quote by Firdausi who while introducing Kai Kaus in his epic book translated by Dick Davis, stated thus:
“If a sickly branch grows from a good root, you should not curse the root for this. In the same way, when a father cedes his place to his son, and if the son then brings shame to his father’s name and his glory, then call him a stranger, not a son. This is the way of the world, and you cannot tell what will grow from a given root.”
Zoroastrinism has ALWAYS favoured conversion
Probably because more of yezad kapadias are being born in this world. But beware of the consequences.
