Baha'i Representation at the All-Asian Women's Conference

Concerning Baha'i representation at the All-Asian Women's Conference; this
is undoubtedly a most commendable thing to do especially as the Cause has
so much concerning the position of women in society. Shoghi Effendi hopes
that the National Assembly will do its best to win the admiration of all
the assembled delegates for the teachings of the Cause along that line. We
should always take such opportunities that present themselves. May be we
would succeed to render some service to society and alleviate its ills.

Shoghi Effendi hopes that with the combined efforts of the friends and the
Master's infinite mercy a great success will be achieved at both of the
conferences. While visiting the Blessed Shrines he will remember the
delegates and ask for them divine guidance. If presented properly the
position of women in the Baha'i teachings will surely attract much
attention, for it is not only legal but also spiritual and educational.
Our ideals are so high and at the same time so practicable that all other
views will fall short if compared to them.

Shoghi Effendi hopes that many will be able to attend these conferences
and render all the assistance they possibly can.

[From the Guardian:]

I trust that the message sent on behalf of the Greatest Holy Leaf and
myself has reached in time and been conveyed to the members of the
conference. May the Almighty Hand of Baha'u'llah guide your steps and
sustain your efforts in the manifold services you are rendering to the
Cause. I will continue to pray for you from the depths of my heart.

brothers are toiling and he fervently prays that the Almighty may
continually shower His blessings upon them that they may be able to spread
the Cause in the most rapid and in the mo
