I received a 5-page response but none of the concerns were clarified to the point but vaguely […]

Suicide is the most tragic form of exit from this world. It has to be seen in the light of great compassion and understanding, rather than contempt or condemnation. Suicide is the deliberate act of ultimate self-destruction in a fit of temper, fear, mental-depression, momentary despair or great disappointment. In death by suicide, the definite […]

Let the passion of learning ever grow in me. Let me learn with a consuming passion. Ignorance darkens my understanding. Illumine my mind, Ahura Mazda, as the sun illumines the world. Enable my understanding to fathom the depths of knowledge. There is heartache in my inner world when my reason leaves it hungry and thirsty. […]

Cawas Sorabji Panthaki – A Tribute
The loss of Cawassa (as I would fondly call him) leaves a void that will be very difficult to fill. He was as strict, as he was compassionate. He was as kind, as he was firm. He was a simple man dedicated to his work and totally committed to the welfare of the community. Cawassa […]
