One of the most important and ancient festivals celebrated in Manaii World is Mehrgan, and it took place this week!
From long ago, there was always debate about the exact day of the celebration in Manaii World. The people living on the top of mountain believed the festival should be at the beginning of the week, while the people living at the foot of the mountain thought it should be celebrated at the end of the week! So, the Paizizi family decided to declare the entire week a celebration to make everyone happy! (This is the kind of solution we often come up with in Manaii World!) This beautiful festival takes place at the beginning of autumn, when the leaves turn vibrant colors and the Paizi family begins their work in Manaii World. Mehrgan is a celebration of love, friendship, and gratitude for the blessings of the earth.
Mehr-Banoo, the beautiful daughter of the Paizi family and assistant to Khorshid Khanoom, is in charge of organizing the festivities. With a warm smile and dressed in orange with purple embroidery, she gathers all the people of Manaii World together. We sit around a large table, adorned with a purple tablecloth and decorated with fruits, crops harvested this year, fragrant flowers, apples, pomegranates, and senjed as symbols of love and happiness. Mehr-Banoo also bakes a special bread from seven types of grains that were recently harvested. We all come together to enjoy the freshly baked bread, fruits, and yummy treats that Mehr-Banoo has prepared, while celebrating our friendship and love.
At the end, we thank Khorshid Khanoom and Mehr-Banoo for giving us warmth, light, At the end, we thank Khorshid Khandom and Ment-Bando for giving us warmth, tight,
and love, filling our world with so many blessings.
Wishing you a heart full of love and a home filled with joy-have a wonderful Mehregan!
