Hormuz is named after Ahura Mazda, the pre-Islamic god of the Persians.

Some professors pack 2Tb of info in 1 word. Others share 1kb of info in a paragraph (I like those, so does my notetaking hand). And then there are those whose academic discourse is so thick, you have to wade through it before you know how much info it actually contains. #Zoroastrian

This course is INTENSE. The number of classes went from 2 to 3/week, and the academic expression of interesting content is rather dry, which strains the brain more. I find I'm hearing with a lag time to understanding. It's like two parts of my brain working separately simultaneously! 😫😪 #Zoroastrian

Zoroastrian Orality, Customs, Ecology Course. Introductions and overviews may sound like an easy couple of hours, but the first two hours of this class peppered us with new concepts about oral transmission and women in the Avesta.

Audiovisual Entrainment for Brain Injury Audiovisual entrainment uses light and sound pulses to guide the brain into desired brainwave frequencies to improve energy, mood, cognition.

Slept better yet so tired. SMR/Beta audiovisual entrainment got me going 😅 but enjoyable class on today’s film a brain drain. Need food!! The comedy set in Mumbai and a Parsi Colony is in Hindi yet the acting was so good, I was able to understand what was going on in the clips. 👍

How is one supposed to give a crap about an ancient civilization and finish an essay on whether its culture will go extinct or not when current civilizations headed by monstrous men are trying to obliterate us all, supported by a patsy of a Prime Minister? #writing #Parsi #Zoroastrian 🇨🇦

Exciting first class led by Coomi Vevaina on Parsi Literature in English. I wasn’t sure about enrolling in it in last-minute I-want-to-sleep jitters. But Keki Daruwalla’s poetry was a delight, especially “My Mistress,” to read and discuss. And Coomi a vivacious teacher. A great class! #Zoroastrian

Just sent the second MCQ assessment (what does MCQ stand for in Indian education?). Ack! My problem is I wasn't taught the language except a few words by my grandmother so I have trouble remembering the names of things.😭 I can at least recognize them, but few multiple choice in the test #Zoroastrian

Today's class was like being in a super-speeding car as we warped through Parsi embroidery, literature, performance art, music, dance, and why are we dying out. Phew! From my own family experience, I could contribute a little to the latter part. #Zoroastrian

Zoroastrianism: Introduction and Major Tenets The first in a series on the TISS-PARZOR Academic Programme in Culture & Civilisations: A Zoroastrian Perspective. First posted on my website at jeejeebhoy.ca.

Watching a film on the professional art scene birth in India through the story of Kekoo and Khorshed Ghandy. On Vimeo. It’s password protected, otherwise I’d embed it in my Substack post on Monday’s class (yet to write). Makes me think of Canada’s burgeoning art scene decades earlier. #Zoroastrian
