Bijan Ashtari Memorial Ceremony

Whether crafting essays, articles, or long-form narratives, Bijan’s style was unmistakable: thoughtful, bold, and unafraid to ask difficult questions. He believed in the power of words not only to reflect reality but to reshape it. His voice continues to resonate through his published works, as well as in the countless lives he influenced through his mentorship, lectures, and dialogues. For Bijan, writing was never just a profession — it was a moral calling, a way to understand the world and to engage with it meaningfully.
