Parsi Reform Movements: Religious and Social Change in the 19th Century

Religious Reforms within the Parsi Community

The Parsi Reform Movements, including the Rahnumai Mazdayasnan Sabha founded in 1851, aimed to rejuvenate the Zoroastrian religion and improve social conditions. Key figures like Naoroji Furdonji and Dadabhai Naoroji led efforts to modernize religious practices and uplift Parsi women. These reforms resulted in significant changes in religious rituals and promoted greater westernization within the Parsi community.
