2.4 Contribution to Scholarly Development

From Letters Written on Behalf of Shoghi Effendi

36: “He was very happy to hear from you, and to see with what keen appreciation…”
He was very happy to hear from you, and to see with what keen appreciation and interest you are studying the teachings of Bahá’u’lláh. One could truly say that the longer one studies them, the more one finds in them. They are the very essence from which thinkers and scientists and humanitarians of the future will derive inspiration and guidance for their work.
(10 December 1942 to a Bahá’í summer school) [36]
