[From the Guardian:]
The accomplishments of the believers of India, in virgin fields and in
furtherance of the interests of the Six-Year Plan, merit the highest
praise. Prompted by their achievements, and as a token of my keen
appreciation of their notable services, and in order to facilitate further
expansion and consolidation of their teaching activities, I have forwarded
to you a contribution which I trust will serve as a nucleus for a Fund
designed to promote the vital and urgent interests of the nation-wide
teaching enterprise in which you have embarked, and which constitutes the
greatest single organized undertaking launched in the service of
Baha'u'llah in that country. Perseverance, coupled with a spirit of
complete dedication to the cause of teaching, will, I feel confident,
ensure the triumphant conclusion of your labours. I will continue to pray
for you from the depths of my heart. Redouble your efforts and be
confident.
