Everlasting Flame: Highlighting history and culture of Parsi-Zoroastrian community

New Delhi, Mar 17 (IBNS) The Ministry of Minority Affairs will host a cultural programme from March 19 - May 29, 2016 that will showcase history, beliefs, practices, and contribution of the Zoroastrians and the Parsi community.
The event, named The Everlasting Flame International Programme,  is being organised under the Hamari Dharohar scheme in collaboration with the Ministry of Culture and the Parzor Foundation.
 
The Programme will present three exhibitions, titled “The Everlasting Flame: Zoroastrianism in History and Imagination” at the National Museum, “Threads of Continuity: Zoroastrian Life and Culture” at the Indira Gandhi National Centre for the Arts (IGNCA) and “Painted Encounters: Parsi Traders and the Community” at the National Gallery of Modern Art (NGMA) along with many cultural and educational events. 
 
Zoroastrianism, one of the oldest world religions, originated among the Iranian tribes in Central Asia during the second millennium BCE and spread to Iran where it became the principal faith until the advent of Islam. Central to the religion is the belief in a sole creator god, Ahura Mazda, his emissary Zarathustra (Zoroaster) and the dichotomy between good and evil.
