Dr. Khodadad Kaviani (Khodi) is an educator, author, poet, singer, and cultural diversity trainer. His Ancient Whispers I & II CDs provide unique ways for all Iranians to reconnect with their Zoroastrian cultural roots through songs. These cultural songs are valuable teaching and learning resources about the living Zoroastrian traditions that linked the cultures of the East and the West on the ancient Silk Road.

Special Thanks to Ms. Nooshafarin who accepted my invitation to help with the Ancient Whispers I. Also, Suzanne Gard for capturing my ideas as glowing fire altars you see on the CD cover and Yasmine Rafi for her magical graphic work. THANK YOU!!!

Amordaad, Songs of Persia II, produced by Khodi and Haideh captures the meanings of living traditions that continue to be celebrated today. Join the celebrations!
