This year, March 21st marks the听Bah谩'铆 new year. Bah谩'铆s celebrate Naw-Ruz, or New Year's day, on the annual vernal equinox. Symbolizing spring-time, change, and renewal, Naw-Ruz also marks the end of the 19-day听Bah谩'铆 fast.
Naw-Ruz usually entails singing, dancing, eating, and socializing. However, Naw-Ruz is more than just a party - it also reminds us of the oneness of all the messengers of God, and the spiritual springtime they each brought to humanity.听
Abdu'l Baha explains that Naw-Ruz represents the return of the Sun of Reality, when the spirit re-awakens and the light of a new revelation shines equally upon the entirety of God's creation.
