Dear Miss Brooks,
The Guardian was indeed pleased to receive your letter of the 16th ins.
informing him of Miss Dawe's safe arrival in Australia, and of the receipt
of the precious relic which he had asked her to present to your N.S.A. for
preservation in your National Archives.
He wishes you to assure your fellow-members of his full approval of their
suggestion to place this sacred relic in a little miniature frame case,
and in such manner as to keep the paper containing it from becoming soiled
and frayed with constant handling.
In connection with the article published in the October number of the
"Herald of the South" entitled "Above the Mists"; the Guardian wishes the
believers to disregard such subjects as psychic practices and phenomena,
for these besides not being authenticated by the Writings of the Founders
of the Faith, pertain mostly to the domain of conjectures. The magazine of
the "Herald of the South" should be devoted to the study and presentation
of those subjects that reflect the spirit of the Teachings, and which as
such are worthy of consideration by the believers. As the national organ
of the Australian and New-Zealand friends its main function is to assist
in disseminating the knowledge of the Cause, and thus develop into an
effective teaching medium. This is the goal which the editors should have
constantly in mind, and which they should endeavour to attain through the
best possible means they can devise at present.
The Guardian wishes me in closing to express his thanks for sending him
the reproductions of the Declaration of Trust certificate of your N.S.A.,
and for the reports of the Adelaide and Sydney assemblies, as well as the
photograph and report of the Yerrinbool Summer-School.
With his loving greetings to you and to your fellow-members in the N.S.A.,
Yours ever in His Service,
H. Rabbani.
[From the Guardian:]
Dear and valued co-worker:
I am so touched by the repeated and compelling evidences of the
magnificent spirit that animates my dearly-beloved co-workers in Australia
and New-Zealand. The record of their manifold accomplishments warms my
heart and cheers my spirit. The Beloved is truly pleased with them and the
Almighty will surely bless and reinforce their high endeavours. May their
highest and dearest hopes be fulfilled in His Service.
Shoghi.
