Defunct Tower of Silence lives on in the heart of an Andheri residential colony 10,000 Parsis Attended 1927 Inauguration
MUMBAI THE UNKNOWN - Defunct
Tower of Silence lives on in the heart of an Andheri residential colony

10,000 Parsis Attended 1927 Inauguration
At Malabar Hill, the Parsi
Towers of Silence are shrouded in mystery— and thick foliage — with few
community members ever spying the stone walls of the seven ‘dokhmas’ or
roofless towers where the community’s dead are laid to rest. However in
Andheri’s Salsette Parsis Association Colony, six-storey residential
structures form a tight arc around a defunct dokhma. Children swing
and slide just a few feet away and plans are underway to create a grassy
patch alongside the tower’s wall where the colony’s youngsters can play
football or an impromptu game of cricket.
Residents explain that their nonchalance about living alongside this structure — which is meticulously cleaned by a band of young Parsi men every few years – stems from the fact that the 83year-old dokhma has remained unused for well over half a century. Exactly when it fell into disuse, however, remains a matter of conjecture. “It was open for only a few years because it was hard to get pallbearers to come all the way from Bombay to perform the last rites,” says 79-year-old Ardesher Patel, whose paternal grandfather was instrumental in setting up the dokhma. He estimates that only 10 bodies were laid to rest within the stone wall of the Andheri tower.
In his book, History of the Bombay Parsi Punchayet 1860-1960, Sapur F. Desai explains what happens to the body after it’s placed on one of three concentric rings encircling the central well. “The body is disposed of with in an hour or so by scores of birds, mainly vultures, and only the bones remain,” he writes. These are then swept into the well, which is connected via drains to four exterior wells. Each one is fitted with layers of sand and charcoal to filter out residual impurities before they enter the soil. “The Zoroastrians consider air, water, earth, trees and all natural elements as sacred and not to be polluted. The dokhma serves that purpose,” he explains.
Before the Salsette Tower of Silence was built, Parsis who had moved to Andheri and Santa Cruz to escape the 1896 plague faced great hardship while transporting deceased family members to the Kemp’s Corner Doongerwadi via horse cart. Fortunately for them, the Salsette Parsis Association (SPA) came to the rescue.
The trust secured a nine-acre, hilly plot from the government in Andheri’s Moghra village and began raising over Rs 1.5 lakh to fund the project. The Tower of Silence opened in 1931 and “from the early hours of the morning till late in the evening, endless streams of Parsi devotees visited the place,” reported the Times of India.
Patel’s grandfather and SPA foundertrustee, Ardeshir Bhicajee Patel, was a Versova resident, who owned a jewellery-cumcurio shop at Apollo Bunder. Besides helping set up the dokhma, he also established a fire temple in memory of his deceased son, and a residential colony for poor Parsis. His grandson, who is chairman emeritus of the SPA, says that at one time the only structures around the dokhma were prayer halls for mourners and a priest’s quarters. Construction on the current housing complex, which has six residential buildings and houses about 800 Zoroastrian families, didn’t begin till 1994.
Even at that late date, a few community members wrote in to the Parsiana, a com munity magazine, asking that the dokhma be revived rather than redeveloped.
Though the Tower of Silence was completed in 1931, its foundation stone was laid on April 24, 1927. About 10,000 Parsis — that is a fourth of Mumbai’s current Parsi population — attended the three-hour-long ceremony, which had not been performed since the last Tower of Silence was erected in Bombay more than 80 years ago. A Parsi battalion worked alongside troops of Parsi Boy Scouts and Girl Guides to control the crowd, and the Bombay, Baroda, and Central India Railway (BB&CI) arranged to run “six special trains” to ferry the visitors to Salsette. The ceremony concluded with Parsis forming a queue to inspect the foundation. “Each person threw some money into the pit as a small contribution to the fund, which is regarded by orthodox Parsis as an act of great piety,” wrote TOI in their detailed report on the day’s proceedings.

A book on sacred love and twin souls
A book on sacred love and twin souls
In this age of online and cellphone relationships -`true love' is an alien concept for most. Fashion designer Poonaam Uppal's book, A Passionaate Gospel of True Love, aims to guide everyone about this idea and conveys the message of twin souls. In a candid chat she tells us more about her book...
What is your book about?
It is an esoteric `true love' story abou how in this jet age, two modern human beings discovered sacred love. It is abou their progress from human to divine.You are not a writer by profession, how
You are not a writer by profession, how long did it take to complete this over thousand pager book?
It was a long and difficult journey and took me around nine years to complete this `Bible of True Love'. I did approach some editors abroad for help but that did not work out as I wanted to maintain the authenticity of the essence of what I wanted to convey . The subject was a sensitive one and the message was from a divine order. I followed Ma Durga's command and edited the book myself.
You are a fashion designer. What inspired you to write this book?
The inspiration for this book came to me in April 2002, when I had the vision of Ma Kali merging in me and killing my errant and extremely heightened sexual desires -all that is mentioned in my book.
What is the message that you are trying to convey through this book?
The main message is that there should be no pre-marital sex. I also explain about twin souls and how true lovers are destined to meet. But that does not mean that sex is a forbidden fruit -sex must be waited for, longed for, artfully prepared and lingered for and reached as a pursuit of salvation. Sex must come after the stage of True Love has been crossed.Before that, this fruit is forbidden, but not after. When the act of sex involves true lovers, sex becomes the most sacred act.
