Focus on International Goals Representatives
Last Riḍván when the Universal House of Justice assigned the American Bahá’í community 301 pioneers to 79 countries, the International Goals Committee and staff felt overwhelmed. Through Committee consultation the idea emerged of having Representatives throughout the country, aiming for at least one in each state, who could aid in this gigantic task.
Most of the Representatives have served in this capacity since late August. While Committee members and staff have been feverously working on the details of assisting pioneers to arise and arrive at goals, these wonderful aides have been giving presentations of slides, cassette recordings, and talks at conventions, conferences, winter schools, and informal gatherings. They have distributed materials, directed the friends interested in pioneering to this Committee and, in general, educated, stimulated, and inspired the believers to the glorious bounties conferred upon those who foresake their homeland to spread the Cause of God.
We are sure that many of you have come in contact with these Representatives; that many of you have been in spired by them; that many of you have filled out pioneer volunteer forms. The results of all this has been that 268 will have arrived at their posts since Riḍván 1969. We consider this an accomplishment for which much credit goes to the Representatives.
Who are these Representatives? Some have served many years as pioneers abroad; others have the enthusiasm for pioneering. It is this excitement for pioneering that is the most important quality of our Representatives.
Some of them have become so inspired that they are now formulating personal plans to pioneer abroad. One couple and their three children arrived at their post during Riḍván. Others have been on extensive travel teaching trips to Australasia and Africa, bringing back much valuable information as well as providing materials for presentations. Some have devoted time to developing tapes and cassettes to stimulate pioneering. All have come up with some way to make the believers in their state more aware of the meaning of pioneering and the ever present need for people to settle in the goal countries of the world.
As the American Bahá’í community gives welldeserved praise to all those who have arisen to further the Faith of" Bahá’u’lláh across the face of the earth, may these behind-the-scene catalysts receive their measure of praise and gratitude for their past, present, and future far-reaching endeavors.

The Day of Sacrifice
“The Day of Sacrifice” observed on Saturday, April 11, at the Los Angeles Bahá’í Center, with Hand of the Cause of God William Sears present, was a very wonderful meeting. Many spiritual and touching experiences were shared.
A beautiful bouquet of fresh flowers was tendered as a stimulus for the contributions to the National Fund. On Sunday afternoon, members of the Inglewood Bahá’í Community, and friends, gathered at the Inglewood Park Cemetery to carry out the suggestion of the Saturday meeting that the flowers be placed on the gravesite of Thornton Chase. Mr. Chase was designated by ‘Abdu’l-Bahá as the first American to accept the Faith, and Abdu’l-Bahá visited the gravesite in 1912.
Sunday was a beautiful day; and prayers and songs at the gravesite helped to make this a significant and memorable “sacrifice weekend.”

Gary Clegg of California spoke at the Chamber of Commerce on March 18. Then, for Naw-Rúz, a showing of A New Wind with about seventy—five present, most of whom were not Bahá’ís. Actually, there were two showings because people kept coming in. Then, they tackled April: A showing of A New Wind at the Chamber of Commerce on the third; a “roof-raising” weekend at the Acoma Pueblo, to help finish a house started by an Indian family; Vermonters Carolyn and Donald Cruikshank were to show some of their slides on April 6; and on April 11, Michael Bernard of Albuquerque was to show slides of Iran.

South Carolina
Deep South Teaching Conference focuses on Large-Scale Enrollments
Frogmore, South Carolina, was the site of the first teaching conference in the United States devoted to mass teaching. It was Naw-Rúz 127, and some two hundred and fifty Bahá’ís came to the Penn Conference Center eager to share experiences, to consider and learn new approaches to teaching, to commit themselves to the opening of new goal areas, and to sacrifice their material resources for the spreading of the Faith of Bahá’u’lláh.
The Spiritual Assembly of Frogmore hosted the conference, ably assisted by the State Goals Committee of South Carolina. The Deep South Committee planned the program and chaired the various sessions. This Committee chose fifteen goals, three in each of the states of South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana. They than called for pioneers and traveling teachers to go to these goal areas immediately. The National Teaching Committee sent representatives and provided special materials for use in mass teaching.
The Continental Board of Counsellors was represented by a member of their Auxiliary Board who addressed the opening session. The National Spiritual Assembly sent two of its members to address the conference and assure the American Bahá’í Community that mass teaching and large—scale enrollments are indeed a reality in the United States.
Hand of the Cause of God William Sears talked to the friends via a tape recording. His loving interest and spirit contributed greatly to the spiritual atmosphere.
The conference ended with many Bahá’ís visiting the grave of Mr. Abraham Brown. Mr. Brown spent the last days of his life clearing this Bahá’í property and insisted that he be buried there. Prayers at his grave—side served as a fitting conclusion to what had to be one of the most successful teaching conferences held in America.
At times, they stood up and cheered.

PARIS TALKS by ‘Abdu’|-Ba ha’
184 pp., London, Baha”I’ Publishing Trust
Through Paris Talks, ‘Abdu’l-Bahá lighted the flame of
spirit in the hearts of the small nucleus of the believers gathered to receive Him, and prepared them for service to the threshold of unity and entrance into the Kingdom. It was autumn, 1911, and these were the first talks given in the West by ‘Abdu’l-Bahá. Each day the Master delivered one of these talks to those gathered either at the apartment, rented for Him at 4 Avenue de Camoens near the River Seine across from the Eiffel Tower, or at churches, Esperanto meetings, theological seminaries, the Scott studio, and various other locations. ' It was ‘Abdu’l-Bahá Who requested that notes taken on the talks be arranged for publication. It was He Who read the text and remarked He was well pleased with the English translation (the talks had been given in Persian and translated into French). It was He Who asked that the book be published without delay. Paris Talks was printed in 1912, and published in America as Wisdom of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá’.
Single Unifying Purpose
A wide variety of subject matter is covered in Paris Talks, each talk being geared to the mentality and background of the audience. Yet, through all the talks runs a single unifying purpose: To uplift those with a hearing ear to a spiritual atmosphere far removed from materialistic goals; to enfold them in such an aura of divine love that they would dedicate their very lives to proclamation of the Kingdom of the Most High.
“Although man is part of the animal creation, he possesses a power of thought superior to all other created beings,”1‘Abdu’l-Bahá reiterated, and explaining further, “Likewise the Holy Spirit is the very cause of the life of man; without the Holy Spirit he would have no intellect, he would be unable to acquire his scientific knowledge by which his great influence over the rest of creation is gained. The illumination of the Holy Spirit gives to man the power of thought, and enables him to make discoveries by which he bends the laws of nature to his will.”
He adds, “The Holy Spirit it is which, through the mediation of the Prophets of God, teaches spiritual virtues to man and enables him to attain eternal life.”2
Again He exhorts, “We must look higher than all earthly thoughts; detach ourselves from every material idea, crave for the things of the spirit; fix our eyes on the everlasting bountiful mercy of the Almighty, Who will fill
our souls with the gladness of joyful service to His command ‘Love one another.’ ”3
While leading us through the logical reasons why we should detach ourselves from material aims and earthly ambitions, ‘Abdu’l-Bahá enlightens us on the nature of the soul, its continual progress, its training through grief and sorrow; and finally, He commissions us to establish love and unity.
Station of the Servants of God
He gives us the vision of the station to which we may arise as disciples of the Most High, saying, “You will be servants of God, who are dwelling near to Him, His divine helpers in the service, ministering to all humanity. All humanity! Every human being! Never forget this!”4
“Let your hearts be filled with the great love of God, let it be felt by all,” ‘Abdu’l-Bahá counsels, “for every man is a servant of God, and all are entitled to a share of the divine bounty."5 “ ‘Love is the breath of the Holy Spirit in the heart of man.’ ”6 ‘
“Love manifests its reality in deeds, not only in wordsthese alone are without effect. In order that love may manifest its power there must be an object, an instrument, a motive,” He explains.7 And in another talk, “Wherever you find the attributes of God, love that person, whether he be of your family or of another. Shed the light of a boundless love on every human being whom you meet . . .”3 “Especially to those whose thoughts are material and retrograde show the utmost love and patience, thereby winning them into the unity of fellowship by the radiance of your kindness.”9
“Turn towards God, and seek always to do that which is right and noble. Enrich the poor, raise the fallen, comfort the sorrowful, bring healing to the sick, reassure the fearful, rescue the oppressed, bring hope to the hopeless, shelter the destitute!”10 Thus ‘Abdu’l-Bahá tells how to manifest, in action, the divine love with which He surrounded those early believers.
The Master’s Example
His words in Paris Talks were reinforced by the mighty force of His example. Day after day His actions were symbolic of the activities He expected of the believers, individually and in groups.
Though wearied by a long, tiring day in Paris, ‘Abdu’l-Bahá went to the Hotel d’Jena through cold and rain to

REVIEW
visit a lady who, He had been told, desired the privilege of meeting Him, but a severe cold had prevented her from coming to Him. She was the wife of the Japanese Ambassador to Madrid, Spain, Viscount Arawak.
He showered kindness on the children, tenderly lifting them into His arms, smiling upon them, and giving them the roses He carried as He descended the steps to the Trocadero gardens with His entourage.
‘Abdu’l-Bahá offered comfort, consolation, and assurance to a widow, still in deepest mourning, whose child was ill. Workers in humanitarian societies who came to hear Him, and who were actively helping the poor, received His special sympathy and blessing.
Theosophists, agnostics, materialists, spiritualists, Christian Scientists, social reformers, Hindus, Muslims, Buddhists, Zoroastrians, and social workers —- these were among the many who came to hear ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, according to Lady Blomfield, who had collected the notes on the talks.
Deepen by Study of the Writings
‘Abdu’l-Bahá fired the believers with the desire to serve the Faith, and repeatedly advised them to deepen by studying the Writings. “The principles of the Teachings of Bahá’u’lláh should be carefully studied, one by one, until they are realized and understood by mind and heart — so you will become strong followers of the Light, truly spiritual, heavenly soldiers of God, acquiring and spreading the true civilization. . . .”11
Again, He said, “ . ye should strive to follow the counsels of these blessed Books, and so order your lives
_that ye may, following the examples set before you,
become yourselves the saints of the Most High!”12 “I counsel you that you study earnestly the Teachings of Bahá’u’lláh, so that, God helping you, you may in deed and truth become Bahá’ís.”13 ‘
The ultimate goal toward which the believers are directed in Paris Talks is the building of the new spiritual civilization in accordance with God’s supreme design.
The Circle of Unity
“Bahá’u’lláh has drawn the circle of unity, he has made a design for the uniting of all the peoples, and for the gathering of them all under the shelter of the tent of universal unity. This is the work of the divine bounty, and we must all strive with heart and soul until we have the reality of unity in our midst, and as we work, so will strength be given unto us. Leave all thought of self, and strive only to be obedient and submissive to the will of God. In this way only shall we become citizens of the Kingdom of God, and attain unto life everlasting.” 14
How well the Master knew the hearts, and the pitfalls to be encountered in the quest for unity, when He said, “. . . when you meet those whose opinions differ from your own, do not turn away your face from them. All are seeking truth, and there are many roads leading thereto. Truth has many aspects, but it remains always and forever one.
“Do not allow difference of opinion, or diversity of thought, to separate you from your fellowmen, or to be the cause of dispute, hatred, and strife in your hearts.” 15
In another talk He commented, “If five people meet together to seek for truth, they must begin by cutting themselves free from all their own special conditions and renouncing all preconceived ideas. In order to find truth we must give up our prejudices, our own small trivial
5
notions; an open receptive mind is essential. If our chalice is full of self, there is no room in it for the Water of Life. The fact that we imagine ourselves to be right and everybody else wrong is the greatest of all obstacles in the path towards unity, and unity is necessary if we would reach truth, for truth is one.”15
In the last part of Paris Talks there is a synopsis of the various social teachings and spiritual truths given by Bahá’u’lláh, several talks by the Master on the power of the Holy Spirit, and two selections not found elsewhere one, a talk known as “The Illuminati” 1'7 concerns meditation, and the second, a Tablet revealed by ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, explains the station of women.
The Master’s Sacred Charge
Bahá’u’lláh laid upon ‘Abdu’l-Bahá a sacred charge to carry to all lands the call to peace, justice, love, and truth, with special insistence on the translating of all praiseworthy ideals into action. The Paris Talks, coupled with the example which ‘Abdu’l-Bahá set before the believers, found heralds to proclaim the Cause. He urged them to “try with all your hearts to be willing channels for God's bounty. For I say unto you that He has chosen you to be His messengers of love throughout the world, to be His bearers of spiritual gifts to man, to be the means of spreading unity and concord on the earth. Thank God with all your hearts that such a privilege has been given unto you. For a life devoted to praise is not too long in which to thank God for such a favor.” 13
To anyone desiring to become a herald of the Kingdom, to rise to a higher plane of spirit, or to deepen himself or another in the basics of the Faith, Paris Talks is recommended.

Harvard Bahá’í’|’s
Sponsor Trip
During the spring vacation, the Harvard University Bahá’í Association sponsored its fourth annual southern teaching trip, this time to Virginia and West Virginia, drawing additional youth from Rhode Island, New Hampshire, and nearby Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
Aided by their State Goals Committees. the communities planned an enriching, varied week of activities. Traveling to rural towns and large cities, we had TV, radio, and newspaper interviews; sang in a college coffeehouse; taught a children's class; spoke with Job Corps youth; examined twentieth century problems (and solutions!) with a high school class; and led many stimulating discussions with enthusiastic seekers at firesides.
The vibrating influence of guitars and Bahá’í songs filled our week with joy and spirit. We were grateful for the bounty of being able to serve with the friends — dedicated pioneers and long-time residents — in bringing the healing message of Bahá’u’lláh to many waiting souls. His strengthening Grace guided our efforts, rescuing us from many difficult situations and showing us the right path.

Prescription for livin§_ (First American Paperback Edition)
In order to continue a paperback edition of this wellloved book by Rúḥíyyih Rabbani, the Publishing Trust has negotiated the production of an American edition with the English publisher, George Ronald.
For many Bahá’ís this book has become not only a source of personal guidance but an excellent way to introduce the Bahá’í Faith. The first half considers man’s unhappiness and confusion in today's society and his lack of understanding of the laws of spiritual life. Among the chapters are: “The Dual Nature of Man,” “Love and Marriage,” “Death,” “Work," “Habit,” “Sorrow and Trial.” The latter portion of the book tells the story of the coming of the Prophet of God, “Springtime in the Nineteenth Century.”
It has been twenty years since this book was first issued, but its direct, challenging answers to the problems of living today are more urgently needed than before.
