Naw Ruz marks the end of the Fast and the beginning of a new year in the Baha’i calendar. Naw-Ruz is a celebration of a “spiritual springtime” that symbolizes both individual renewal and mankind’s revitalization.
This short animated video, produced by the UK Baha’i Office for Public Affairs, explores what’s happening to our sense of community and belonging, and how focusing our attention and energy towards serving our local community could strengthen the bonds that connect us. This helps us to develop a greater sense of meaning and purpose in our lives.
