Zoroastrian children with children <strong>of</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r faiths in schools and colleges; (c) quick results and<br />
material favours sought by impatient Zoroastrians, which drive <strong>the</strong>m to babas and fake godmen; (d)<br />
our forgetting <strong>the</strong> "Declaration <strong>of</strong> Faith" that we recite after tying <strong>the</strong> Kushti, and <strong>the</strong> pertinent<br />
words <strong>the</strong>rein, "Mazeeshtacha, vaheeshtacha sraeshtacha, yaa Ahurish Zarathushtrish..." (e) The<br />
unfortunate ridiculing <strong>of</strong> our rituals, traditions, etc. by some academic students <strong>of</strong> <strong>Zoroastrianism</strong>; (f)<br />
The thoughtless borrowing <strong>of</strong> alien concepts and beliefs <strong>of</strong> many <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Western scholars by some<br />
Parsee savants; (g) The dangerous practice <strong>of</strong> jumping on <strong>the</strong> bandwagon <strong>of</strong> scholarship, after reading<br />
a couple <strong>of</strong> books on <strong>Zoroastrianism</strong>.<br />
This small book is published with <strong>the</strong> hope that Zoroastrians, <strong>the</strong> world over, will eschew for<br />
all time to come <strong>the</strong> dangerous, anti-Zoroastrian doctrine <strong>of</strong> 'conversion'.<br />
