Muktad, called Farvardigan in Iran, occupies the last ten days of the Zoroastrian year, comprising the five final days of the twelfth month and the five Gatha days that follow. The household is scrubbed from top to bottom, and a room or a corner is set apart with a table holding metal vases of flowers kept fresh, a fire vase burning sandalwood, and water. The fravashis of the family dead are invited by name — which requires a list, often written and passed down — and food is offered daily for the ten days, with prayers recited by the family or by a hired priest. On the final day they are formally seen off. In Bombay, fire temples set aside large halls where families rent tables for the period. The observation everyone in the community makes is that Muktad is the last thing to go: households that have abandoned daily prayer, temple attendance and dietary practice will still put out the flowers and keep the list of names.
