Chicago is a beautiful city, and seeing it from the height of 1,000
feet in the air is breathtaking. Only a few miles away from where this
photo was taken is the Art Institute, where the Baha’i Faith was first
mentioned in America in 1893.
“The East is illumined, the West is perfumed and the world is in
motion and acceleration. Such a tumult is visible in the regions; and
such a spiritual commotion is perceived in the pillars of the earth!
The fame of the grandeur of the Word of God hath reached the ears of
the inhabitants of the world, and the voice of the Cause of God
holdeth universal sway! It is the time for joy and happiness and the
moment of exhileration and ecstasy.” -Abdu’l-Baha
