In the Zoroastrian faith a Jashan ceremony is a celebration of an event, whether happy or tragic, with prayer. Often they are performed by one or two priests. Last weekend I was given permission to make images of a Jashan with over 300 priests in attendance. A sight which I may never witness again. The priests, when in prayer, wear snow-white vestments; for Zoroastrians, white is the color of purity and holiness. Read more about the nuances of a Parsi Jashan ceremony here.
