Nicholas Powers gave me permission to repost his e-mail here:

"If anyone wants to light a moment of Life on fire, go to Union Square, stand at the gate of the Gandhi statue and you'll see him surrounded by branches, his face framed by green stalks and to the right of him the towers of light, two bright beams that in a cloudy night seem to burn into the sky a hole between this world and the next.

"The sight is amazing, aesthetically and spiritually. As if he's walking out of Ground Zero with a serene mission to remind us of our enemies humanity. It's a Burning Man moment right here in New York, for free."
