The universal Teachings of Baha’u’llah if declared and
propounded with wisdom and judgement, determination, selflessness and
sincerity, and above all if exemplified in our lives and dealings with our
fellow-men, cannot fail to inspire and stimulate the mind of the enlightened
seeker and win the admiration and allegiance of all mankind. Ours then is the
duty and privilege to bring to the attention of this distressed and war-weary
world this Message of Eternal Salvation and help to establish the Era of Peace
and Brotherhood as purposed and foretold by Baha’u’llah.
- Shoghi Effendi (Shoghi Effendi, from
a message dated 9 January 1923 to the believers in India and Burma; ‘Dawn of a
New Day’)
