Featured in: Festival of Ridvan
Ridvan, also known as the Most Great Festival, celebrates Baha’u’llah’s time in the garden of Ridvan on the outskirts of Baghdad in 1863 when He publicly declared His station as a Manifestation of God. The Ridvan Festival is 12 days long and is also the time of year when Baha’is elect their governing bodies.
Baha’is from all over Brazil have created three online musical celebrations in honor of the 1st, 9th and 12th days of the Festival of Ridvan, which celebrates when Baha’u’llah publicly declared His station as a Manifestation of God in 1863. This video celebrates the 1st day of Ridvan with a variety of prayers and music in Portuguese.
You can find the other two online Ridvan celebrations on the Bahaivid YouTube channel.
If you enjoyed this program, you may also enjoy the 12 online celebrations created for each day of the Festival of Ridvan created by the Is Everywhere team (you can find all their videos here on YouTube) or those created by the Global Ridvan Celebration team (their videos can be found here on their website).
