- In India, an ancient religion known as Zoroastrianism is under threat.
There are fewer than 60,000 believers in the country and their numbers are projected to fall further.
The UN says this is alarming and warns of an "extinction in the not too distant future".
Could matchmaking Zoroastrian couples and having more children help keep this 3000-year-old religion alive in India?

I am a Hindu but it makes me proud to see such a diversity of religion exists in my country.sir Ratan Tata is a legend of india!
This country is faith-diverse because Hinduism has the intelligence and sophistication to consider every path chosen by the seeker as valid. Unlike the 'my path the only true path ', type of belief systems.
and homi baba our atomic father also a persi
Peaceful people made them flee their homeland peacefully.
Parsee community has given Us legends who are the backbone of Indias Growth .The Tatas, Homi Bhabha sir, Mr Curian The white revolution man & many more.They are well educated,peaceful & love their Country India.
False, it was congress who made this possible not your religion. Your same religion has done genocide of all religions@@girijabhaskar4227
In my dad’s country Iran. Zoroastrianism used to be a majority religion but muslims massacred us until near extinction 😔
True they really are scum and even now in India they are trying very hard to convert Hindus to Muslims!
Sad reality 😢
They did it in India too that's why they was able to convert half of the hindus(around 500 million) to muslim
read about aryavaejo and aryavart
So true. So sad
Not really, vast majority just converted from zoroatrianism to islam. There’s literally no way Arab Muslims would have been able to hold Persia otherwise. It required a lot of tolerance especially in the beginning
Zorastrianism survived its because, they migrated to India, and India aka Bharat is open for all minorities. Parsi's are great and awesome people so proud of them. ❤🇮🇳
Except for Muslim and Christian

Being an Indian SANATANI . Parsis ( Zorastrians ) are very loyal to India . Like Ratan Tata , Sam maneksaha etc .
When Islamic invaders invaded zorastrians they came to Bharat ( India ) we accepted them cause they were sweet and loyal.

Parsis said " we will add sweetness in your country just like sugar add sweetness in milk "

Thank you sir I am a parsi
Parsi isn’t a religion, it’s a people. Zoroastrian is the religion. I’m Persian, and it looks like the Paris’s are more Indian than Persian now. Which is good because India have them a home.
They contributed by selling opium and looting resources from India

I am sorry but with all due respect how does the description makes any sense, to quote they are stating, "In India, an ancient religion known as Zoroastrianism is under threat." this is showing complete different story as the state or rest of population is causing this threat.
Please, correct this @BBC
stfu.... everyone with commonsense would know that its not a threat from other religions
No... perhaps you should study English a bit harder?
Propaganda brother bbc is still it's mordan colonial mindset:/
That's BBC, it will never show Islam in bad light. Islam is the official religion of BBC.
If it will show that Zoroastrianism had to flee Persia because of Islam, it will mean blasphemy.
their muslim daddies will stone them if they show us in good light

It is great getting info on Indian parsi . My grandmother on father's side is parsi heritage. I always curious about its culture and religion....But, after leaving India for South America about 160 years ago, we have lost so much of our heritage,customs and culture.
This is what happens in intermarriage the second generation sibling is confused and the culture is lost of the minority culture and no one cares a daam as at the back of the mind the majority knows that in one generation their sibling will get influenced by the majority one
@@Vllator20gx40 No its not intermarriage that confuses children born of it. Its the distance from the source of the culture that does. A Parsi marrying a non-Parsi in India would always be aware of his roots, culture, religion and can connect or reconnect anytime! So your premise is wrong! My family left India 180-200 years ago and you have no idea how many non-indian origin and non-hindu faith people has intermarry into my family, all my cousins and I still know, appreciate, recognise and even practice our culture & religion!
@@Vllator20gx40then you want to destroy one of the belief , culture like Islam do
So where did your ancestors went and do you still live in south America?
No converting? Very interesting! Wish more religions would do that. Aside....why the heck does height matter?
It's changing. Iranian Zoroastrians are reforming it.
height is just a preference
Only Indian Parsis don't allow it.
It was an oath they made to our kings and uphold to this date like the wonderful people that they are.
In fact, we are trying to help them revive their numbers by asking their community leaders to accept those who wilfully want to return to Zoroastrianism.
The no conversion is not a doctrine of Zoroastrianism itself as we can see that Zarathustra supports the propagation of Ahura Mazda's message as seen in the gathas. The no conversion is a result of the terms of agreement upon entry to the land of India which is explained in the Story of Sanjan.

The community is placing unfair demands on the youngsters without coming to agreement on wider differences - allowing women greater role in religion such as becoming priests, allowing women who marry outside to still identify themselves as Parsis. There are many who are calling for reform, but the voices of the conservatives still tower above the rest.
You can hardly blame the govt. If the younger generation prioritises looks, height and income over being a Parsi, the religion no longer has appeal.
Honestly you should realise that about 40% of Iran's Population are ex Muslims for a Reason.And Same goes to India and Pakistan as well for having large Ex Muslima
My mother came to Canada when she was eight. She married my dad, who is Catholic and I had a navjote. I am a Zoroastrian despite my dad's religion. The religion is opening up a little. I went to a Parsi wedding a few years back (here in Canada) with the world's first female Zoroastrian priest. Maybe it's just because we're in Canada that we are accepting this but I am no less Zoroastrian than any other as far as I am concerned.

@@knowledgedesk1653 Scriptures or Gathas are in Avestan, not Middle Persian.
The promise (which was made a long time ago in a different time and world), was that they wouldn't force people to convert (they wouldn't proselytize), not that nobody would be allowed to convert by choice. 🤦
I don't think there would be a clause, allowing to be converted by choice. If there would be, then at least there would not be a situation of extinction of community today.

Their forefathers and ancestors fought very hard for survival of their culture and religion 😢

they shouldn't have attacked Arab muslims first then.
They invaded and conquered great Semetic lands. They demanded royalties from Arabs before Islam. They had bigger armies and got there asses handed to them by Arabs worse than Alexander the great

@@Theunknownking1234 not true though, indian rulers of gujarat used to kidnap muslim traders and the kings helped the pirates who kidnaped them. Also why muslims didn't care to invade south india for long time because south had good relation with muslims
Parsis are very brilliant and intelligent people, they focus more in progress and development. Due to this they have small family, so less population growth.
More important: They don't live in India and do acts against India. Amazing people! Parsis are not traitors! They don't betray India. Gr8 people!
I have no words to praise them.
I have never seen a single anti-Indian Parsi (Parsi living in India) in my entire life!
We Indians hold Parsees in high esteem. Your contribution in Industry, legal field, Defence and sports is high. U don't have quantity but u have high quality. I suggest all parsee couple should produce at least two children and all must marry. We Indians can't afford to lose u. Lots of love 💕 from Bengal 🙏
I started researching into this religion because I read that Tara Sutaria was born into a Parsi family and I didn't seem to recognise what that was. Always do love learning about new things and this mini documentary type thing was really well put together, I really like the host!

don't be So harsh lmao but it was funny
Parsis are not purely west asian. They have South Asian ancestry on the maternal side
I believe Hinduism, and Zoroastrianism are 2 of the purest faiths. They do not force people to convert, unlike other more aggressive Faith's from inferior cultures
@Cool Penguin I actually consider those as other aspects of Hinduism, and compatible for it. That's part of the beauty, they can all include other pantheon and philosophy. Namaste 🙏

Zoarastrians in india aren't just parsis. Don't talk if you know nothing. Zoarastrians in india are mainly within two communities one is parsis and other one is iranis... Like Boman Irani is a Zoarastrian irani not a Zoarastrian parsi
@@Judah_889doesn't matter , all that matters is they are good PPL
Living in India i never met any parsi and never knew that they are so open minded people. So well educated and thoughts are really good.
IDk where you lived but here is a huge Parsi community in Mumbai. They speak Gujarati and English in general.
Buddy TATA is parsi
They are mostly in western costline
I mean, they are good because their numbers are less. I can already see them actively blocking us from all ways of life if they had population sizes comparable to that of ours. See, their temples are not permitted to non-Parsis. Even while marrying, they are wary of specifically not marrying Hindus, as if we are some forbidden people. They literally know Hindus would worship even their gods without a second thought unlike most other religions, yet they see us like the others only. They constantly worry about their population sizes, as if we are a threat to them. This is the truth. Stop making shit up just because you want to show the world how good they are in comparison to Muslims. The harsh reality is they aren't. It's not like they were very nice and good and victims of Islamic expansion. They ruled Persia for almost 2-3 millenia and took part in many violent wars before being uprooted by the Arab Muslims. Literally every faith other than Hinduism, Jainism and Buddhism are intolerant, this is the sad reality. The Jains officially call themselves Hindus even though they have many laws and restrictions which the Hindus don't have. Buddhists literally have no borders when it comes to religion. That's how free and liberal our Indic religions are.

But they won't let you in. Why are they so scared of non-Parsis, especially Hindus? They think we will nullify their faith? They clearly know we literally worship everything thrown at us, as long as we aren't told to stop worshipping what we have already been worshipping for ages.
@@factcheckershq It is Hindus who gave these parsis refugee in India. But, these parsis always take side of muslims. Parsis opposed CAA.
@@slmsinghania The Parsis seem a bit off to me. I really don't get what their politics is. The thing is, many foolish Hindus think they are nice people who were religiously persecuted in Iran during the expansion of Islam. While it may be true, many don't realize that they ruled the area (not just Iran, even the entire Middle-East, parts of Europe and Africa) for almost 2000 years. They had a bloody history with the Greeks, Romans and other civilizations.
@@slmsinghaniaHindus always do stupid things and give refuge even to Aliens if they ever land in India. That's how stupid we are. It's only because of Mughals and the British that we have even started thinking of us as one people with the same base culture and traditions extending all the way from Kanyakumari to Kashmir and from the Kutch to Bengal. Before that we were just warring castes/tribes who kept the others as slaves and if not for these invaders we would have stayed as such even to this day.
@@factcheckershq Their famous zorashtrian king Cyrus attacked India also. But Hindu kings of Punjab fought him bravely and drove him away.

This is so cute, I love it! How do I convert to Zoroastrianism in the United States?
@smokengreen That's not specifically a rule of the religion. Not proselytizing was a promise the ones that went to India made, but the ones that stayed in Persia/Iran never had a rule against it (at least not in the past; Iran's current regime isn't exactly friendly to other religions). Zoroastrians in other places around the world usually don't have a problem with people wanting to convert.
What the hell do you mean by cute? This is not like adopting a puppy . You are becoming a part of their culture and religion. Don't you think you should be more responsible?
wtf, converting to a religion isn't something one does due to being cool, do it if you adhere to its beliefs and want to believe in the faith not because of its quirky.

First question by subconcious is "what do you do?" This says alot about our decline. Both in iran and india, Zoroastrians had to go thru phase of adopting poltical values to survive in the jungle. This now has served as the killer as we have distanced from the message of being good and having boundaries.
The farahvar symbol of zoroastrian was also used as one of the national symbol during shah pahlavi rule in iran

India 🇮🇳 may introduce a 2 child policy and I think the Parliament should exclude Zoroastrians out of that 2 child policy. We don't want a culture or religion to go extinct that has already suffered a lot in the past in Iran. Also one of the world's richest earner and the owner of the famous TATA group Mr Ratan Tata is also a Zoroastrian.
kudos to our lovely Indian parsis. Great admiration to them.

PEACEFUL community created so much peace that a whole religious ethnicity is now on the brinks of collapse ❤❤
Parsis are the most peaceful, educated and modern of Indian peoples!! Their charities are legendary - to the point they want to give back everything they made in this world...... Sorry to see the community dwindling ( I am Assamese Hindu).
Madam Talk with the Government to allow migration of Irani Zoroastrians numbering between 30000-40000. This may partially resolve some of your problems. Culturally they may not match your community.
but over a period say 25 years some problem may be eased out..
Great idea and save them islamic dictatorship
Call Sima from Mumbai already.
Parsis should allow children of inter religious couple with one parent as parsi to continue to be parsis and take part in parsi rituals and tradition.
I know this was a year ago but they do allow it if the Parsi is male

Ironically, Im parsi but whenever an american asks where im from, and i tell them india, they start talking like a stereotypical scam caller. never seen a respectful american.
May lord bless you all .
one of the last surviving group if i am not wrong, please stay safe and happy. A very friendly community of India, thank you
Hindus and Parsis are so similar 🥰
India in the butt crack of the world. A dirty, backwards country filled with archaic traditions and culture. It's no wonder why India is one of the major contributors to world pollution.
@@michaelkelly7968 Pakistanis and Chinese bots lol
@Devil Only half of the gibberish you uttered constituted as English. Try speaking it next time you want to convey a thought. 👍
@@yinyan_9686 Then you're uneducated and misinformed. China and India are number 1 and 2 by a long stretch.
Your waterways are some of the most polluted waters in the world. Most of your population lives in poverty and famine. India is truly a disaster for not only its own citizens, but it's impact on the rest of the globe.
@@michaelkelly7968 yeah bro by your logic all minorities including parsis should leave this disastrous, godforsaken, filthy..... country and settle in USA and other western progressive nations... I think these parsis will assimilate well in christian American society since christianity and Zoroastrianism share many common beliefs the best being example being concept of heaven and hell.
what about horoscope
The Indian king did NOT add any no converts clause. There are religious conversions done in India and few people have become zoroastrian through conversion. Most Indians don't convet because they are already proud of there religion and hold great pride in it. Also, the Persians were fleeing religious persecution from the muslims. Thats the part that bbc left out. Also, nice to see Indian government doing something good to protect the religion. Also, both the Parsi community and the government need to strike down the restrictions on the women. Not only because they are unfair, but also because they will help the community grow further.
YES BBC WILL NEVER MENTION THE WORD MUSLIM ...NEVER EVER ....NO MATTER WHAT
Pandas can go extinct but people that believe there are fairies at the bottom of the garden aren't a species so can't go extinct.
Lol right, because biologists trademarked the word 'extinct' and now no one's allowed to use it to refer to anything other than "species"
@ Anjin Anginsan I beg to differ. The Shaker people & their belief system went extinct. They wouldn't accept outsiders into the fold & members followed the practice of abstinence. Now they are gone. They are remembered only through their artworks, inventions (the circular saw, et.) & the vast # of cities, counties, & city subdivisions in the US bearing their name (Shaker Heights, Cleveland, Ohio exmpl)
@@gloworm6387 Those people were Homo sapiens and Homo sapiens still exist therefore they haven't become extinct. If an individual doesn't pass on their genes it doesn't mean that their genes aren't present in other individuals that do pass on their genes.
@@sebastianguerre6868 There are no more SHAKERS! THEY NO LONGER EXIST! Get it?
@@gloworm6387 No extinction event though.
