April Monthly Meeting

The Parsi Community of India and Pakistan

08 April 2026 at 2pm

Ramji Abinashi, one of our members, will give a talk about the Parsis, an ethno-religious community of Zoroastrians primarily residing in India and Pakistan.
These are descendants of Persian Zoroastrians who fled religious persecution following the Arab conquest of Iran between the 8th and 10th centuries. They have become one of India's most successful and influential minority groups.

During this talk we will learn about Religion, Philosophy, Symbolism, Rituals, Navjote Funerals, Culture & Language, Cuisine, Heritage, Economic and Global Impact and the Parsi Demographic Crisis.
