What you had written him regarding the various steps taken by the N.S.A.
to further the Six-Year Plan of Teaching has immeasurably rejoiced his
heart, and he too joins with your Assembly in humbly supplicating
Baha'u'llah to vouchsafe to all those dear friends who have offered to
undertake pioneer teaching in various parts of India such measure of His
guidance and blessings as would enable them to effectively further the
interests of this Plan. He would urge you all to persevere in your
self-sacrificing exertions, and, notwithstanding the various handicaps
under which you may be compelled to labour, to confidently strive to
achieve this high teaching objective.
[From the Guardian:]
The energetic prosecution of the Six-Year Plan, despite the perils, the
uncertainties and gravity of the present hour, is the paramount task
facing the believers of India and Burma. All projects and activities,
however desirable and urgent, must henceforth be subordinated to this most
pressing and vital issue, inasmuch as it is the fountain-head from which
all future blessings will flow and the one and only instrument which can
at the present time, most effectively establish and consolidate the
administrative order of the Faith throughout the Indian Peninsula. My
prayers for your signal success in such a mighty and glorious enterprise
will continue to be offered, with increasing fervour, at the Threshold of
Baha'u'llah. Persevere and be confident.
