He is always very glad to hear of the good news of the
progress of the Cause, especially in Vienna. That is a very important centre
from which the Cause could spread to Eastern Europe and the Balkans. Those
regions, being occupied by people of diverse nationality and religious belief,
are always a hotbed of dissension and strife. They need the teachings of the
Cause to pacify them and create among them the spirit of love and comradeship.
