Temple Meetings |
With reference to the matter of meeting in the Foundation Hall
of the Mashriqu’l-Adhkár, I feel that the Foundation Hall should
serve the purpose both of devotional gatherings where the revealed
Word of God is read and chanted, and meetings at which subjects
strictly Bahá’í in character are presented, propounded and discussed.
I have no doubt that every conscientious and thoughtful Bahá’í will
scrupulously and at all times observe the commandment of Bahá’u’lláh
and the instructions of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá relative to the maintenance
of the sacredness, the dignity, and the universality of an edifice that
will in time become God’s universal House of Worship.
