Secunderabad, Zoroastrian Club, Sorts Hall Inaugurated

Written by admin on June 18, 2012. Posted in Parsi News

The Zoroastrian Club’s renovated indoor sports hall was inaugurated by Katherine S. Dhanani, Hyderabad Consul General of the USA on Thursday.Apart from a badminton court, the facility also accommodates sections for table tennis and indoor sports such as carrom. “The flooring for the badminton court has been relaid,” said Rohinton Jal Noria, the club’s President.The hall, measuring 60′ x 60′, was perhaps the first to have a shuttle court in the Twin Cities, if not the state. Dating back to 1951, it was built by retired Railway Chief Engineer P.E. Aibara, brother of the revered cricket coach, Eddie, on the lines of the one at the Cricket Club of India (CCI) in Mumbai.The high roof saw the ‘bird’ fly freely, when shuttle stalwarts such as Erland Kops and All England championship quarter finalist Nandu Natekar had fans enthralled. — Special Correspondent

    Reducing someone with the incredible talent of Mr. Mercury to a ‘faggot’ seems incongruent with the ideals of “good thoughts, good words, good deads”. Being the fundamental tenets of our faith, their manifestation must take precedence over any other Zoroastrian teaching which may seem to conflict with them.
    Sodomy and masturbation are seen as impure acts by they guidelines of the Zoroastrian faith, and should be avoided in so far as possible but they are not what defines a person.

    Freddie was still a beautiful person who used his talent to accomplish a great deal more than most people do in the interest of uplifting humanity and ultimately serving his community by bringing attention to the exceptional talent Parsis have.

    While his talent may not have manifest in manners that were 100% agreeable with religious doctrine, this good they created surely outweighs any damage done. We should be pragmatic and intelligent when it comes to furthering the interests of our people in a complex reality that is not black and white but full of shades of grey.

    Are you guys planning a Chaharshanbeh Soori and Noruz Celebration as well? Unfortunately, I just ran across this site today and noticed that I have missed the SADEH festivities. Is there any way I can join some kind of a mailing list for future events? Thank you in advance for your attention.
    Sincerely,
