Naw-Ruz marks the end of the 19-day Baha’i Fast, which is a period of reflection and profound spiritual reinvigoration, and the beginning of the Baha'i new year. Naw-Ruz is a celebration of a “spiritual springtime” that symbolizes both individual renewal and mankind’s revitalization.
Here in Australia, Baha’is and friends, are working to improve not just their communities, but the very society in which we live, through the principles set out in the Baha’i Faith. We believe that the arts and media can play a critical role in helping that come about, and that’s why Baha’i Blog exists.
Through sharing the amazing works of artists, interviewing creators, giving platform to thoughtful community builders and well-wishers of humanity, and exploring the spiritual journeys we’re all on, the Baha’i Blog project aims to contribute in its own way to the unfolding of Baha’u’llah’s vision for humanity.
We welcome contributions from around Australia, and beyond. We aim to showcase both work that explores the Baha’i Revelation, but as importantly, work that shows the transformative power of the Faith. We’re interested in stories and perspectives of people around Australia striving to put spiritual principles into action to transform their communities in ways both big and small.
We acknowledge the Traditional Owners of country throughout Australia.
We recognise their continuing connection to land, waters and community. We pay our respects to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and their cultures; and to elders both past and present.
