"....however grievous the ordeal of temporary separation from the heart and nerve-center of their Faith which future unforeseeable disturbences may impose upon them, I adjure them, by the precious blood that flowed in such great profusion, by the lives of the unnumbered saints and heroes who were immolated, by the supreme, the glorious sacrifice of the Prophet-Herald of our Faith, by the tribulations which its Founder, Himself, willingly underwent, so that His Cause might live, His Order might redeem a shattered world and its glory might suffuse the entire planet"... .(Your true brother Shoghi, June 30, 1952)This volume is a review of Shoghi Effendi's Ministry and a selected part of his writings. He was "The Sign of God, the Primal Branch, the Priceless Pearl, the blest, tender, vibrant and flourishing Branch from the Twin Holy Trees", who was appointed by 'Abdu'l-Bah in His Will and Testament as the "Guardian of the Faith and the Expounder of the Teachings of Bah'u'llh". The God-given divine power and genius of Shoghi effendi, the dazzling style of his writings with its eloquence, charm and glory, in English, Persian and Arabic, and with his masterful translation of Bah' scriptures with a celestial beauty, has created a brilliant and magnificent collection that are truly his historic legacy in Bah' Dispensation. This compilation does not represent the entire scope of Shoghi Effendi's writings. It is only a selected portion of his Divine Guidance to the Bah' world.
