He is so glad to know that Mr. Benke is going to Sofia to help Miss Jack, and he trusts that he will be of very great help to her. With the assurance of Shoghi Effendi’s loving greetings to you all,... My dear and precious co-workers: I was so pleased to hear from you and to learn of your steadfast loyalty to the Cause.
Indeed, once the Mansion at Bahjí had been repossessed and fully restored to its original condition, and appropriately furnished, Shoghi Effendi put together a collection of this much valued documentation for display there as an encouragement and education for the growing stream of pilgrims to the World Centre.
Sometimes they came from outside. Other times they came from souls most trusted and loved. In every case however they have proven to be for the good of the Faith. It is such events that arouse the friends to added service. Shoghi Effendi hopes that as a result of Mrs. White’s activities the friends will become more united and feel to a greater extent the importance of their task.
Your loyalty and perseverance, in the face of formidable tests, are indeed worthy of the highest praise. May the Beloved continue to guide and bless your high endeavours, and enable each one of you to render great and memorable services to His Cause, Your true brother, Shoghi 19 May 1932 Dear Dr. Mühlschlegel: Some time ago I received a letter from you in Persian.
Their thoroughness, ability, patience and open-mindedness highly qualify them to assume such responsibilities and undertake so great a task. I trust that the letters you will soon be sending to the British High Commissioner for Palestine will be a prelude to the brilliant services you are destined to render to the Cause of Bahá’u’lláh. Your true brother, Shoghi 9 August 1933 Dear Dr.
Soon, the economic crash of 1929 led to a world-wide reduction in material well-being, with all the further moral and psychological insecurities that resulted. An appreciation of these circumstances helps us to understand the magnitude of the challenge facing Shoghi Effendi at the outset of his ministry.
I urge you to maintain the closest contact with the believers in Germany and particularly with the National Assembly, to study and digest the chapters of Nabíl’s narrative as they appear in “The Sun of Truth” that you may obtain a fuller grasp of the purpose, the influence and the moving episodes of the Faith of Bahá’u’lláh. Your true brother, Shoghi 12 October 1935 Dear Dr. Mühlschlegel,
It is not only that Shoghi Effendi refrained from legislation; he was able to fulfil his mandate by introducing no more than provisional ordinances, leaving decisions in such matters entirely to the Universal House of Justice. Nowhere is this self-restraint more striking than in the central issue of a successor to the Guardianship.
Lest any observer of the Cause be tempted to misunderstand such warnings as only metaphorical, Shoghi Effendi, drawing some of the historical implications, wrote in 1941: A tempest, unprecedented in its violence, unpredictable in its course, catastrophic in its immediate effects, unimaginably glorious in its ultimate consequences, is at present sweeping the face of the earth.
Your true brother, SHOGHI. Haifa, Palestine, February 20, 1927. Letter of April 12, 1927.
