Nothing has been
found in the Bahá'í Writings requiring the friends to stand and face the Qiblih
whenever the Tablets of Visitation are recited. No issue should be made of this
matter when a Holy Day observance is being held. However, when one is actually
in, or within the precincts of one of the Holy Shrines, it is an act of simple
reverence to stand and face that Shrine when the Tablet of Visitation is
recited.

House of Justice to an individual believer)
