O thou lamp who are enkindled with the fire of the Love of God!
Verily, I read thy recent letter which showed thy strong love,
Thy being ablaze with the fire of the love thy Lord,
The Mighty, the Praised, and the penetration of the Spirit of Truth

The fire, the fire, the fire of the love of thy Lord. 
The Mighty, the Praised, and the penetration of the Spirit… 
… of Truth.

Thou seest, O Thou Who art my All-Glorious Beloved, the restless waves that surge within the ocean of my heart,

In my love and yearning towards Thee. 

I implore Thee, by the signs of Thy majesty and the evidences of Thy sovereignty, to subdue Thy servants by this Name

My first counsel is this: Possess a pure, kindly and radiant heart, that thine may be a sovereignty ancient, imperishable and everlasting.

10 In The Name Of My Lord

"He must never seek to exalt himself above anyone, must wash away from the tablet of his heart every trace of pride and vainglory, must cling unto patience and resignation, observe silence, and refrain from idle talk. For the tongue is a smoldering fire, and excess of speech a deadly poison. Material fire consumeth the body, whereas the fire of the tongue devoureth both heart and soul. The force of the former lasteth but for a time, whilst the effects of the latter endure a century." - Bahá’u’lláh, The Kitáb-i-Íqán

Heart & Soul

Converging on Canada’s Vancouver Island, songwriter/recording artists Eric Dozier (Harlem Gospel Choir, One Human Family) and JB Eckl (Santana, WAR, Ozomatli) set out to bring their diverse musical backgrounds together for a music-infused devotional experience. Drawing on the Baha’i sacred Writings for lyrics and inspiration, and incorporating elements of soul, rock, Gospel, folk and world music, this first collaboration weaves a rich tapestry of sound at once expansive and intimate, introspective and jubilant.

The Badasht Project seeks to explore how the use of beauty, music and the arts can serve as a catalyst for change, consciousness, revolution, and insight.

The song also hopes to raise consciousness around the importance of moral & spiritual education as an essential part of young people's development and growth.
