“Holy, holy, the Lord our God, the Lord of the angels and the spirit.”

The Dawn Breakers

“O Man of Two Visions! Close one eye and open the other. Close one to the world and all that is therein, and open the other to the hallowed beauty of the Beloved.”

Bahá’u’lláh

zach miloff/left (ottawa, canada): The fast came this year, as usual, at the best possible time. I’m thankful for the space it has created, in my heart and in my mind. There is sweetness in these slow, wide open moments to which few experiences compare.

cortney gusick/right (palo alto, usa): I love imagining all of the humans—to the furthest reaches of the earth—responding to the impulse to arise and supplicate, as we exchange chase with the sun. A form of pure magic only the Fast can inspire.

    I love these quotations, and the individual photographs, and the synchronicity between them, SO HARD. Thanks to you both!
