ZARTHOST NO DEESO

Zarthost No Deeso takes place in June, on Khorshed roz, Dae mah (11th day, 10th month). This is the day on which the death anniversary of the Prophet Zoroaster symbolically falls. Special prayers are recited and Zoroastrians go to the Fire Temple to pray. This day is an occasion of mourning and lectures and discourses are held on the life and works of the Prophet.
