Meditations of the Blessed Beauty

In Meditations of the Blessed Beauty the wild and dramatic landscapes of Iceland and Norway form the backdrop to a selection of Baha-u-llah's most powerful writings on the themes of creation and spiritual regeneration. Tortured, imprisoned and exiled for almost forty years for his ideas and teachings, Baha-u-llah's inspirational words reveal a creative force which is truly awe-inspiring and magnificent in scope. Drawing the reader into a contemplation of that mysterious force which binds each of us to the cosmos these exquisite verses will attract the hearts of all seekers after truth and beauty. Mark Sadan's commission for this title has produced a range of compositions from icebergs to volcanoes, mountains to pebbles and flowers to forests, each of which embrace the mystery and wonder of the elements. Sadan explores the inner meanings of physical creation through those natural metaphors which comprise the universal language of the soul, each image a meditation in itself.
