1933-08-XX some incidents at the recent Convention
USBN #77 - September 1933 - page 3
Recently the National Spiritual Assembly has received a copy of a letter
written by the Guardian, through his secretary, to a believer who wrote him
frankly to state certain views about some incidents at the recent Convention.
"He has, however, grieved to learn that, despite his repeated references on
the necessity of unity and concord among the friends, there have appeared some
misunderstandings among them. Such negative forces have always hampered the
progress of the Cause and have resulted in utter disappointment. The spirit of
partisanship which is but the outcome of individual passion and selfishness is
fundamentally opposed to the basic teachings of the Faith. It is for cooperation,
motivated by self-sacrifice, that the Baha'is stand, and nothing short of the
adequate realization of this ideal can redeem the world and insure its safe and
speedy progress."
