Happy new Iranian / Persian year
to all forumites, today is Nowrooz, our new year over 2500 years of Persian culture and tradition is going to be celebrated again , a tradition which has been kept alive in spite of all problems Iran has gone through!

A happy new year of laughing, dancing, enjoying life and . . .

Happy new year to all of you my friends on the cantina

Regards

Sooo, that'll be a Happy Persian New Year to you too then;)
 
Helluva way to start a New Year for some, but here's hoping this year soon becomes better than the last.

Good fortune to all.
 
May we all become more merciful, living more rightly and justly, and stay more humble and teachable longer during the coming year. May we treat each other better as the brothers we were meant to be.
 
Thank you Rusty for your help, and sorry guys, either my computer ran crazy or me :D .

Anyway thanks again and a happy new year to you and your families and may all of human beings live in freddom all over the world and in peace,and in love,and be brother as we all are.

Thank you my dear friends.

Hi Manoucher

I read that this celebration goes back to Achaemenid days. It is celebrated in many lands where Iranian culture runs deep.

Some things do not change much. I was reading the Anabasis tody, where Xenophon remarked on the Kurds as being hillmen who did not follow the authority of the King.

Hi Chris

Yes that is true.

It may be interesting to not that many if not all of the world calendars (or at least observances of the solstices and equinoxes) began aound this time of the year. The Gregorian calendar and a few others sponsored by the church in europ changed it around.

Makes sense to have the year start with the Spring equinox, as it is a time of new beginnings.
