Dear AZA Community

A few days of winter weather will remain when you get to read this issue of the Manashni. We started the winter season with the regular Sunday school on 2nd June. Some of the parents took the initiative to organise a catered lunch where all the regular Sunday school parents shared the cost. This was followed by the scheduled annual AZA Ghambar on Sunday 9th June. The full report with photos is included in this issue.The Carrom Tournament which was scheduled for May has been postponed and rescheduled to Sunday 11th August.The next major AZA event is the Shenshahi New Year scheduled on Sunday 18th August. Full details have been emailed to the community. There will be a Jashan in the morning followed by festive New Year lunch.Some of the visitors to AZA house may have noticed the 40 foot shipping container towards the far eastern end of the property. This is the container that I wrote about in the May issue. It has been installed on the foundation prepared by the working bee. On 30th June a team of 19 Zoroastrian youth came to the working bee and gave the container a fresh coat of paint. Thanks to Karl Desai, Simone Balsara, Kainaaz Variava, Parinaz Billimoria, Neville Mehta, Yazhad Gheesta, Farah Dastur, Farah Mody, Ferina Behrana, Rayomand Medhora, Aarish Doodha, Xerxes Karai, Friya Kermani, Nishad Engineer, Cyrus Dholoo, Merzi Mody, Meherzad Variava, Avan Jussawalla, and Naasha Dorabjee. You can see the container work in the photos included. Most of the equipment in the new AZA kitchen is installed. The Certificate of Occupancy is however pending.Zoroastrians in Sydney and NSW, we hope you have updated your contact details at the following website: http://tinyurl.com/mvjgkyr A reminder email was sent on the 7th July. Soon after the June Ghambar, Pheroza Daruwalla took the initiative to organised a fun night for the early teenagers – Years 9 -12 students. The night of Saturday 13th July was selected as it was the last weekend of the school holidays. Over 30 youth showed up for the evening. It attracted as many older teenagers and

youth as it did the younger teenagers. The parents who came to drop off the kids socialised over dinner at Kashi Indian restaurant. It was a successful evening and these youth would like to have a repeat event. According to the AZA calendar for 2012-2013 the AGM will be held on Sunday 29th September at 3:30pm. Any paid member (2013-2014 financial year) can submit their nomination for the AZA Management Committee as well as for the elected Trustee. I can confirm that some of the committee members from the current team will not continue in their committee roles. We invite members from the community to commit their time, knowledge and energy by nominating to join and be part of the AZA Management team 2013-2014. For your information according to our constitution the management committee typically comprises 7 persons - 4 office bearers and 3 ordinary members.I would like to thank all those who paid their pending AZA membership fee for the financial year gone past. It is now time for the AZA membership fees for the 2013-2014 financial year. Thank you for your support.

Dear membersWith the tax returns behind us, it’s time to focus our attention back to the AZA activities for the second half of the year which kicks off with the Carrom tournament most likely underway even as you read this. Other sporting events to follow are the table tennis and cricket tournaments, ample opportunity for the sports inclined among you to have some fun and show off your sporting prowess.

In contrast to the previous years, this year the committee have organised a Jashan followed by a traditional lunch to celebrate the Shashenshahi New Year. Capacity at the Darbe-Meher is limited, so make sure you book early to avoid missing out.

Browsing through the popular social media platform LinkedIn, it was heartening to see a number of Sydney Zoroastrians in senior corporate positions and others thriving in their own business. What we lack in numbers we make up in leadership qualities, entrepreneurship and a desire to excel in our chosen profession. With some of the current AZA committee members stepping down at the end of their tenure, there’s an opportunity for our dynamic leaders to step in and contribute their time and talent for the benefit of the Sydney Zoroastrian community. While career and family commitments can be strenuous and demanding, the satisfaction of serving the community is one of the most rewarding experiences…one with few parallels in today’s hedonistic society.

To those among you who own a business, the Manashni is a cost effective medium to reach a highly

Editor’s Reporttargeted audience of mainly affluent readers with a high disposable income. The new advertising rates that have now come into effect offer advertisers the opportunity to advertise their products or services in two consecutive issues for one affordable investment.

You may have noticed an increase in articles contributed by our members. I would like to thank everyone who made the effort and have taken the time to contribute to the Manashni and encourage other members to hit the keyboard and send in more contributions. Have you seen an interesting article or viewed a website that could be of interest to the wider community? We would love to hear about them. The

Missing Parsi website featured in this issue is an invaluable resource to help some of you reconnect with long lost friends or relatives. Who knows what other gems are out there in the ether.

Those among you who enjoy the recipes that are now a regular feature are invited to send in your own creations if you would like these to be published in future issues. Please also send us photos of your mouthwatering delicacies so these can appear alongside the recipes.

I hope you enjoy reading this issue and welcome your feedback and contributions.

Community which included fruits, dry fruits & nuts and the traditional sev, ravo, malido etc. Not to forget the Dhansak Dal, Rice, Kebabs and Kachumber which made up Lunch for the day. This was followed by some Jalebis.


Thank you to all who helped set up the outdoor area and then assisted in putting away the chairs & tables.Thank you to all the ladies and gents who worked

silently and continuously in the kitchen to ensure all the food was warmed up and ready to be served and the kitchen was cleaned up later. Credit goes

to the ladies of our Seniors Committee, who with their experience and team work made sure all went smoothly.And last but not the least, thank you for all your

contributions of homemade Dal, Rice, Kebabs, Kachumber and other items which were enjoyed on this day by one and all.


Get Together of ‘Young Ones’ at AZA HouseJuly 13, 2013Some 30+ youngsters assembled at AZA House on July 13 to party and extend their friend circle. Their parents and younger siblings did the same at Kashi Indian Restaurant. The merry makers were entertained through the hard work of Xerxes, Friya, Farah and Zeenia who had put their heads together to come up with a range of fun activities to get them mixing and chatting.

Simone and Karl also lent their services to set up and have the party cleared up. Games like Fruit Salad and Trivia kept all the young ones ranging from Year 9 to older youngsters busy and interacting. Additionally like all good Zoro kids they had brought food and drinks to share, dinner was pizza and salad (of which not a lot was consumed). Parents and friends went back to join up for dessert, tea and coffee at 10 pm and a long Zoro farewell ensued – with the Darbe Meher being finally locked up well past 11!

New friends were made, old friends re-connected – and the stellar work of Goolie Variava and Meher Parekh helped in rounding up the kids and parents from the North West and South Sydney. Let’s hope that this is the start of many more such events so our kids get to know each other and keep the next generations of the Zoro community connected. Don’t worry if you missed out this time – there will be other opportunities and we would love to see more Year 9-12s join in.

Kidz KornerAboriginal PoemBy Nazneen Billimoria

There were kids out there who were taken away.Tried to escape and find a safe place to stayPlaying and dancing without any joyStill missing their family, their love to enjoy.

Starving, afraid, looking everywhere for themCrying, dying, suffocated by the white men.Parents, their names crying, “Where are you?”Looking everywhere but not finding any clue.

Because of the white men this has all happenedThey were takenIt brought so much harm.

But now we have learntWhat we did was wrong.

JokesBy Surosh KhurshedA prisoner, after many years, is finally released.He runs around yelling, “I’m free! I’m free!”A little kid walks up to him and says, “So what, I’m 4.”

A man had a pet centipede. He said, “centipede, go get the paper and make it snappy!”A half an hour later the man went

outside and said, “I thought I told you to get the paper a half an hour ago!”“Well, I had to put on my shoes,” said the centipede.

A man was driving in his car got a call from his wife on his cell phone. She was really frantic and yelled, “Honey, I just heard on the news that there is a car going the wrong way on the highway! Be careful!”He replied, “Honey, there isn’t just one, there are hundreds of them!”

A man was looking for a person to paint his porch, so he hired a young lady and told her what to do. After about 30 minutes, the lady came to the door and said “I’m done.” The man asked “how did you get done so fast?” The lady said “it was hard at first, but it got easier towards the end. And by the way, it’s a Ferrarri not a Porsche.”

A mother walked into her son’s room and said cheerfully, “Up. Up. It’s time to go to school.”The son replied, “I don’t want to go to school.”“You have to go,” the mother said.“I hate that school. The kids are mean and rotten.”“You still have to go, “ exclaimed the mother.“It’s like jungle. One fight after another. They threaten me at least 100 times a day!” cried the son.“You have to go to school!!”“Why must I go?” pleaded the son.“Because,” replied the mother, “You are the principal!”
