From Letters Written on Behalf of Shoghi Effendi

28: “Shoghi Effendi was delighted to hear of your conversation with Sir …….”

Shoghi Effendi was delighted to hear of your conversation with Sir …. How much he hopes to have such scholars obtain a true understanding of the spirit and teaching of the Cause and arise to dissipate that veil of misconceptions that is prejudicing the mind of the scholars in the western world. The Cause is in great need for such competent and spiritually minded men who after a thorough study of the Movement would share with the world the fruit of their labours.
(11 March 1929 to an individual believer) [28]
