The Baha’i Perspective On Our Purpose in Life

July 21, 2025, in Videos > Short Film, by

This video, produced by Baha’i 101, shares a short and concise introduction to the Baha’i understanding of the purpose of life.

Baha’i 101 is a YouTube channel that is an American individual initiative dedicated to explaining the basics of the Baha’i Faith one video at a time. Naysawn Naji, one of the channel’s creators, hopes the videos can be “solid modern teaching tools”

I really enjoyed watching this video. Who is the presenter? And a bit about who he is and his background.

Thanks!
