[From the Guardian:]
The achievements of the Indian believers in recent months have been truly
stupendous. The Six-Year Plan has progressed magnificently; the
dissemination of Baha'i literature has been stimulated, the national
administrative headquarters, to be henceforth designated as the
Haziratu'l-Quds, has been established; a new spirit stirs in the hearts of
the believers, teachers, pioneers as well as administrators; the evidences
of a fast-developing community life are evident everywhere. The impetus
lent to these activities must be continually reinforced in these
concluding months of the first Baha'i century. The Indian believers have
amply demonstrated the vitality of the faith they profess. They must win
fresh laurels. They cannot rest on their oars. They must scale still
loftier heights. They must persevere till the end. They must sacrifice to
the utmost. They must unite as never before. They must prove themselves
worthy of the task they have so nobly initiated and are now so
energetically prosecuting. I will, with redoubled fervour, pray for its
consummation. Rest assured.
