Technocracy, as well as the other movements now existing in
the world, every one of them, has some wonderful point that connects it very
closely to the teachings of the Faith. But all these see the light partially.
The spirit of the Cause pulsates in their veins but they have to become
conscious of the center of inspiration and light if they desire to reform fully
our corrupted and despairing society. Our troubles are not purely economic.
There are also basic spiritual reforms that have to set in. There is the human
heart that has to be changed.
- Shoghi Effendi (From letter dated 17 February 1933 written on
behalf of the Guardian to an individual believer; The Compilation of Compilations,
Vol. 3, Social and Economic Development)
