Your true brother, Shoghi
(December 20, 1951)
[Letter of April 14, 1952]
Your gracious letter of March 20th, conveying Naw-Rúz greetings to the beloved Guardian has been received, and gave the Guardian the utmost of happiness. It revealed anew the power of Bahá’u’lláh, that in that far off land, the banner of His Grace has been raised so effectively, and the friends have been quickened by the new spirit of unity which is sweeping the world.
The Guardian will pray at the Holy Shrines that the powers of the Holy Spirit will inspire and sustain you in your labors for the spread of the true teachings of brotherhood, and the spiritual elevation of the people of Japan.
Today, the head corner-stone of service to the Faith of Bahá’u’lláh is teaching. It is the source of divine blessings. The beloved Guardian feels your consecration to this most important of all Bahá’í activities will achieve new goals and win many victories for the Faith.
He sends his loving greetings to each one of you, who will ever be in his heart.
