Dear Readers, I know I speak for all of us when I say it’s disparaging as a self-respecting Parsi, to witness our community making news in the national dailies for the wrong reasons, yet again. It is not just common, but also healthy, for any community to have differences – we are, after all, regarded […]

God-Fearing Or God-Loving? Dear Readers, Some months ago, a lovely Parsi woman, settled abroad, dropped in to our office, and as she shared a few amusing stories about her take on Parsipanu in India and abroad, I couldn’t help but notice her habitual use of the phrase, ‘God-fearing Parsi’, in reference to herself and to […]

Rear-View Mirror Or Windshield? Dear Readers, How do you drive a car? Keep your eyes on the road, your hands upon the wheel… and look into the huge windshield onto the road ahead, or do you look into that little rear-view mirror and keep sight only of the road already gone? Definitely a stupid question, […]

Dear Readers, It’s been a week of celebrations in our community in Mumbai, and Parsi Times, as always looks forward to further the noble and never-underestimated cause of such ‘fun with a cause’ community events. These jamborees, which fit seamlessly into our positive default preference for fun and entertainment, foster a sense of the much-needed […]

Dear Readers, As we head towards celebrating our 68th Republic Day next week, I can’t help but reflect on our diminishing presence in the Armed Forces – perhaps an obvious corollary to our dwindling numbers, or worse, a lack of interest in being part of India’s highest and noblest bastion. For a long time, Parsis […]
