Dear
Baha'i Friend,
Allahuabha
Your loyalty is with whom?
Is it towards sans Guardian
Organisation based on heresy and which is responsible for misguiding all the lovers of
religion of God, Or towards the Center of Covenant Abdul Baha and towards the First
Guardian of the Faith Shoghi Effendi?
If you yourself study the Will
and Testament of Abdul Baha you will find that
"It is incumbent upon the
Guardian to appoint another Guardian (His successor) in his life time."
Are you ready to believe that
our First Guardian, Shoghi Effendi, against the wishes of the Center of the Covenant, did
not appoint second Guardian in his lifetime? No. Never. it is impossible.
Through a series of Cablegrams,
between 1950 and 1957, Shoghi Effendi established the embryonic International Baha'i
COuncil. Shoghi intended that this Council would involve through several steps, first as
the International Baha'i Court, and than into the Universal House of Justice. Shoghi
Appointed an American Hand of the Cause, Mason Remey, as its President.
In this way Shoghi Effendi
appointed Mason Remy, as his successor, the second Guardian of the Baha'i Faith, since the
President of the Universal House of Justice and the Guardian are one and the same person.
Shoghi Effendi died suddenly in
London in November, 1957. As he left no Will, it was assumed by the Hands that he had not
named a successor.
Regarding the Hand's decision
that the Guardianship had ended. It states that they sent a message to the Baha'i world
declaring the end of the Guardianship. In fact, although they made the decision that the
Guardianship was "badaa' they did not announce it and kept it secret so that they
could slowly condition the believers to accept the end of the GUardianship.
Mason Remy tried hard to
convince these Hands of Cause and asked them not to separate Guardianship from the Baha'i
Faith, They could not be convinced and they pushed the Baha'i world towards such darkness
from where it was difficult for the Baha'is to come out.
In 1960, Mason Remey declared
that Shoghi Effendi had appointed him as the second guardian of the Baha'i Faith.
Joel B. Marangella received a
letter from Mason Remey dated 5 December, 1961, instructing him to keep the enclosed
envelope unopened, until such time as he felt appropriate. Then, on 21 September 1964,
Mason publicly announced the creation of the Second International Baha'i Council, naming
Joel B. Marangella as its President. Soon thereafter, Joel opened the sealed 1961
document. which asked Joel to tell the Baha'i world that Mason had appointed Joel as the
Third Guardian.
In the summer of 1965, Mason
instructed Joel to tell the Baha'i World of the activation of the Council, and the October
issue of the "Glad Tidings" ddid so. Joel B. Marangella has been formally
serving as guardian of the Faith since then.
In 1992 the Orthodox Baha'i got
a pleasant Success when in the capitol of India, Delhi, there was establishment of
National Orthodox Baha'i Council. We appeal you to sever your relationship with the
heterodox organization, Join the Orthodox Baha'i Faith and get involved in the service of
the Real and True Baha'i Faith.
