dical science will much improve.
With the appearance of every Revelation a new insight is created in man
and this in turn expresses itself in the growth of science. This has
happened in past dispensations and we find its earliest fruits in our
present day. What we see however is only the beginning. With the spiritual
awakening of man this force will develop and marvelous results will become
manifest. Among other phases of human learning the medical science will
have a place. There is a Tablet of Medicine that Baha'u'llah has revealed
and which is translated into English. That does not contain much of
scientific informations but has some interesting advices for keeping
healthy.
Shoghi Effendi was very glad to hear that you are planning to study
Persian very seriously. Should you do it you will obtain ample reward for
your labours, for you will then be able to go straight to the writings
themselves.
LETTER OF 6 DECEMBER 1932
6 December 1932
To the Baha'is of Esslingen
Dear Baha'i Brothers and Sisters:
Shoghi Effendi wishes me to acknowledge the receipt of your letter dated
November 28th 1932 written on the occasion of the commemoration of the
passing away of our beloved Master 'Abdu'l-Baha.
The Guardian is very glad to see that at such celebrations the friends
come together and with a true spirit of service and devotion renew their
determination to consecrate their life to the service of the Faith. It is
only through such methods that the fire of enthusiasm can be kept burning
in our hearts, and that we can keep the goal of our very being upon this
earth ever present before our minds.
In his moments of prayer at the blessed Shrines, Shoghi Effendi will think
of you all and ask God to guide you and sustain your efforts. He trusts
that through your constant efforts and God's infinite grace the Cause will
spread throughout that city and the neighbouring regions and your group
become a center of attraction for those sincere souls who seek the
spiritual life and desire the resuscitation of mankind....
[From the Guardian:]
Dear co-workers:
Your welcome message brought cheer and comfort to me in my great sorrow. I
value your sentiments, your collaboration, your assurances of undying
loyalty to the Cause of God. I will continue to supplicate for you all the
Beloved's blessings.
Your true and affectionate brother,
Shoghi
