Zoroastrianism/Best wishes
Expert: Rohinton Irani - 8/12/2009
QuestionMr.Irani,
I don't really have a question, I would just like to say that I enjoy studying your religious tradition.I am a devout Episcopalian in my junior year of college.I am majoring in Religious Studies and minoring in Ancient Studies.I am just beginning the ordination process, and hope to become a priest. I have been studying Zoroastrianism for the past six years on my own.Not to brag, but my library of books is becoming quite extensive considering my limited budget.I enjoy Dr.Mehr's works the most and agree with his Gathic perspective.Though,as mentioned,I am a devout Christian, I consider Zarathustra to be one of the goodly prophets.I would be happy to share my limited library and help in any way that would further the knowledge of Zarathustra.I do not know any practicing Zoroastrians in my area, but would love to learn more.Perhaps someday,when I have time,I could enroll in some of your online courses.Until then, I am your friend.
Warmest Regards,
J.Robert Gyngard
