Education of the individual Bahá'í in the Divine law is one
of the duties of Spiritual Assemblies. In a letter to a National Assembly on 1
March 1951, Shoghi Effendi wrote:
“The deepening and enrichment of the spiritual life of the
individual believer, his increasing comprehension of the essential verities
underlying this Faith, his training in its administrative processes, his
understanding of the fundamentals of the Covenants established by its Author
and the authorized Interpreter of its teachings, should be made the supreme
objectives of the national representatives responsible for the edification, the
progress and consolidation of these communities.”
