These are some of the reasons that the Bab, ;one of the principal figures in the Baha'i Faith, chose March 21 to celebrate Baha'i New Year. It marks the first day of the first month in a new 19 month calendar designed by the Bab, each month consisting of 19 days. The names of the months are based on the various attributes of God; for instance this first month is called "Splendor". On the first day of each month Baha'i communities gather together to celebrate a Feast which involves devotion, consultation on the af- fairs of the community, and fellowship. The. last month of the Year from 4d luring its most creative period, march 2 W 21 ""Loftiness" is set aside .for .f .sting ld_ in the fall, when it yields its harvest ancj-the prayerre aration for the forthcoming fullness of its achievements, theft; : Pray in po evitably, itsli s into whiter•, *beelike The fast is observed from sunrise t f its leaves fat en, it stands silent, awaiting sunset each day.
