[00:00] But because Shoghi Effendi wanted that the isolated believer and groups develop into assembly made mandatory that all the community, whether they are Local Assemblies, they can vote for the election of the National Assembly. And I think the House of Justice will find out that your number has increased considerably, the same method would become little by little universal and all the believers have the right to vote through local conventions, which I [?] several months before Riḍván. Now remember that because it's very important that we increase our membership, that we increase our number of local assemblies, and so that we might have a universal election in every country for the members of the National Spiritual Assembly, which by the say of the Master, ‘Abdu’l-Bahá. Prior to the Secondary House of Justice, this is the Primary House of Justice, the Supreme Body of the Cause, and this one our Secondary House of Justice. I said yesterday, and I mentioned it this morning again, the beloved Guardian wanted a complete separation between administration and [?}. And his plan, when he appointed the first Hand of the Cause, [?], was to create the organization, [?] the propagation of the Faith, Hand of the Cause in 1951, and then auxiliary member, 1954. And just before he passed away, just a few weeks before passed away, in his last message, doubling the number of the auxiliary board members and created a body not only for propagation as before, but also for the protection of the Faith. Now you must study these things because everything gets together and forms one unity.

[2:20] As we have said before, the Local and National Spiritual Assembly today are under than 14, even if some of them they cannot function because of repression in their country. And then there is the fourth [?] title here. After that there is the one concerning the obligation of a membership of a Spiritual Assembly. I think that all local assemblies, when they are elected, they should refer to some letters which Shoghi Effendi wrote as early as 1922, which are in one volume called the Baháʼí administration and learn the range, the wide range of activities, the local assembly has besides sitting once a month on a local assembly meeting, half-sleepy, waiting for the coffee, and sometimes unfortunately filled with smoke, which is terrible. I would be in such assembly [?]. No smoke from the fire, but from human lips, which there is very little inducing or inducing of spirituality. The wide scope of the local assemblies are incredible. Do you know that you can publish publications? Yeah! You could make-- do you know that you can make a [?] teaching? Do you know that you can correspond with other local assembly? The beloved Guardian encouraged that, even to write the outside of the country, write to Persia, to Australia, to New Zealand, anywhere. Kick the fire of friendship and understanding all the time. This is the purpose of a Local Spiritual Assembly. Believe me, if anyone of us would really, would say, abide by the directions of Shoghi Effendi, we will have a very limited time to sleep, actually, because that activity would be so great. And I think that the time has come that we should do that, because we have to prepare the world before this greatness of Bahá’u’lláh's revelation. And so these are the obligation. I'm not going to read it to you because I refer you to this book of the beloved Guardian and of course the House of Justice made this thing here.

[5:00] And then, the House of Justice brings its own function on the forefront, and you know that the terms of service of a membership in Local and National Assembly are limited at the present time to one year. It has a great importance, especially in this evolutionary period of our faith, because this change of a blood every year is spreading the knowledge and the skill of administration among many friends. But you know, the House of Justice has reserved for themselves the right to be in office for five years. So Universal House of Justice, it lasts five years. You know that. If you don't know, well, you learned five years, the other, one year. But in time, Shoghi Effendi said we can extend the period of service and I hope and pray that day with come when we shall not be rushing with the [?] now to do a conventional state of days and run out again and say, "Oh, this convention is killing everybody." Something like that. We're going to have it perhaps in time when we grow mature or when we grow wise, etcetera, we shall have a extension of a period of service. And it would be more economical, too, for the Cause because the expense of a convention are quite high all the time. All those in the election function Universal House of Justice will see fit, calls old National Assemblies to send their membership so that they will elector that this member of the National Assembly would be recognized and seated by the House of Justice as elector of the House of Justice itself.

[6:50] There's something interesting. Many times they ask me that, like I wrote the Aqdas myself, you know - that's incredible - why the women are not eligible to the House of Justice. You see, but the women who have the ight, who are a member National Assembly, or the electors of the Universal House of Justice, and they don't have the duty of a member of the House of Justice. You will see how wonderful it would be with these little baby running around inside that the building of the Universal House of Justice just crying "mama, mama, mama" or something else. Now you can understand that. Bahá’u’lláh, in His wisdom, gave it to a woman an exemption from this honor [?] that he is to be a member of Universal House of Justice. But you are elector, those members. And I think, I don't know which assembly I saw that came into Haifa last year. There were about eight women and one solitary poor man [laughter]. And they could vote for the House of Justice. Their child, you see. So motherhood is a privilege for ladies who are a member of the House of Justice. It's a very strange circle. And then the Universal House of Justice, he said "abcdefg" up to i. The House of Justice comes to the convention for the Election of the House itself. And generally during the period of Riḍván, between the first day of the Riḍván and the last day of the Riḍván. But with a few exceptions, the House of Justice always taken the first day of the Riḍván. And so the new election shall be taking place in 1979. It's five years from - it's 1979, yeah, that's right. It was '73, or no '70. Help me out. '78?

[9:25] And the convention, or say the practical functioning of the election is decided by the House of Justice from time to time as they wish to do. There's no rule said. Nobody can tell them what to do. They make their own decision. They apply and execute their own decision. And then there shall be a procedure for those with no table to attend. I don't remember exactly how many came last year, but quite of large number. But those who could not come they send the ballot by mail or they entrusted the ballots to some member. One member would go and bring the ballots of all the other. And again, this is the procedure which the House of Justice has made for itself. Then there may be possibility that the convention or the international convention could not be practicable. There was one time during the Six Days War and again during this Yom Kippur War that the House of Justice could be in a position that will not hold the election. And then the House of Justice made a provision already. It would be a solitary baby left there, isn't it? Poor child. He's gone, he's gone. So the House of Justice will make a provision for that and the instruction have to gone forth until eventually all the convention for electing the House of Justice. So you see all these things is part of what I would call [?]. Let's call that. Foundation upon which the Faith will continue to function, no matter what happens.

[11:50] If a member of the National Assemblies ceases to be a member of the National Assembly before the election of the House of Justice he has the right to vote. This is the part of the Constitution. You know the words. If for some reason he has to cease to be a member of the House of Justice and the call has already arrived from the House of Justice, he has the right to vote, even if you're not a member any longer. Well, that's a detail that perhaps there'll be one or two instances like that, but it's better to know. If the call of the election has come and a member or 2 members of the National Assembly are compelled to go for reasons we cannot fathom now, he has the right to be the elector of the Universal House of Justice. Then there is a title here about vacancies, if there are a vacancies in the Universal House of Justice. The vacancies are [?] to nature. One would be physical death and the other one, God forbid, expulsion from the House of Justice. Well, everything spread. The Master speaks very clear in the Will and Testament. And then, in that case there, in this part here, it deals with the subject about substituting a member who is not able or has passed away, and has to be substituted, but no member of the House of Justice can resign his services. He can only resign if he has the approval of all the other members of the House, the Supreme Body. You can't say, "I don't like and I go." You can't do that, or some other reasons. The other members must decide if he is to be freed or not. So that is another clear point.

[14:10] And then, as I said before, the House has no offices. The beloved Master in his Will and Testament had said that the Guardian is for life, the chairman of the Universal House of Justice. And as long as there is no [?], Universal House of Justice has no chairman, has no offices, has no vice chairman, has no treasurer, and whatever you can imagine. They rotate themselves to chair just for the sake of all the discussion. And here I can say perhaps the functioning of the House of Justice is in the [?]. It's like in a Cabinet of the Ministers, minus the prime minister. If they have a meeting, one of them, they rotate themselves, either from day to day or from half a day to half day. They function all for the week and it's according to their desire and methods. They function and they function as a what you would call coordinators more than chairman, because the chairman takes and gives the right of the word, where the coordinator does not take and give the right of the word, that sees that everybody's fairly treated. And that's right. So if you ever receive the letter [?] in our Secretary National Assembly here, I've seen a few, when you get the communication from the House of Justice, it's not signed by a member, but it is sealed and certain members of the House of justice are authorized to sign with writing the Universal House of Justice. And that changes all the time. There are no signature of individuals, but the seal is very important because it is a dry seal, which is sealed which is impressive and with a special punch, goes through the paper. And that is the official. All the documentation that comes out of the House of Justice is marked with this dry seal, even mimeograph statements are. If you don't see anything with a seal and written across is "House of Justice", no matter what it says, the document is not acceptable.

[17:05] So I would say the justice pungency in the department on the I can't say that one department is more important than the other because they all function together and they are all related to each other, and negativity showed otherwise. There would be no perfect functioning well, but the two honors, the most difficult ones, are the secretary. You have no idea what your mail comes and how much you may leave. It is incredible, and the secretary are as a matter to which I don't think is adopted in any organization of the world. Every document which leaves the House and justice is classified. And when a certain number of these documents are richer, they are bound together in books. Before we'll let you know we have any book for certain cheekiness, let's say about one and 1\/2 centimeter. These are considered. And no matter what you search, there is a reference. All of you can go and find what you said before or something else. Most perfect organization on it is a very I would say, owners, that is a fatiguing, exacting task over keeping your secretary are you? And we hope that the young lady here they wanted was having the baby in danger. Who has shown me the The photograph offered a drawing over the new building of the universe around just when the building will be completed. A house of justice. We have enough space to breathing at the present time. They're very cramped quarters because it was a children house to get all the eight or 10 minutes no more than that at the time. And now they are 80 people working and you know it isn't. But when did the new building would be in functional? Dana? They left. Everything will function better in the sense of speed position. That's cute. And so whatever records is leaves, the House of Justice is no told recorded, it is verified. And the verification is Don't buy initials of Remember the House of Justice on the margin of the paper. So, in these days of political maneuvers, I think our beloved Italy that has gone down the drain at the present time did. It can't be nothing like this can happen that we know employer. They're being all deceitfulness, that they cannot be anything like you. They are just far above all these misery that we saw in the world. And then we have another part of which he's six parts of 66 chapter of the by election which calls for local and national election. Now, this, as I mentioned it, is more. This party is that but absolutely most binding, uh, tie that we have with supreme institutional benefit. Everything is within the circle with universal also justice. We're part of one entity and you know, it's like a human organs. If one organ, it doesn't function well, it entire body's affected. You want to remember that and off course. Naturally. The organs which will not function very well, no in human body, not immune about amended by. They wanted that on the lower grade that is the local assembly groups. And sometime and I sure and that the spirit of this chart we have today Yeah, we are all together. You know, he would say, are in frangible on intangible spirit of a collaboration on dedication because about that's very important. And so let's see what the papers say. This funding to elections and then the just give us a minute righted to review. You're just as likely to review any decision off any institutions over the court. Does not matter which the light of revision on division almost be accepted with good, good faith on Billy Billions. This is there, right? The Actually it says any administrative body. And you know what? We charted every 30 bodies, local natural, sending their committed on the part of the administrative body. They're all little appendixes appendixes around this essential body, individuals or an administrative body. I have delighted to appeal to the house of just you know, they can I write. You cannot be denied. Nobody can tell you you can't write. You can do this. You cannot do that, Justin. You're right. Anyone right? But if this case, which is implying a decision off local institutions then they appear should be made in a manner that the institution which is being appealed against, is well informed if you understand, that's it. Besides, being alone is a good man of the law of good manners. It's very important, which is paramount. If you wanted to appeal a decision, you inform your body said my body I am going to appeal to divers are just for this reason, this is part of the chart and see all the all the rights and guarantees we have for the freedom in the big. This is the part. Then we're coming to the end of this document. It is a appointment of the boards off a counselors. You remember that according to the will and testament of a master, the garden alone was one able to appoint an answer. And he is departing this right season and could not be transferred to no one. So the universe, our justice after deliberations in consultation with under, because decided to build the parallel institutions to handle because who bye, love nature of my last 25 or 30 years of the most. And they so in 1968 today appointed Council Board of the Counselors for Continent in same system the velocity Gardiner donor with a hand and these lords of the council is Abbas. The duties and privileges too inspired The friends two assist national bodies in the propagation of the faith and through their body, the body over there board members, which was an institution created by the guard in 1954 to penetrate capital Iran into the body with the believers through the local assemblies and individual believers. You see the picture now we have any cities are friendly. The astronomer. He's going to make a beautiful design here to show with essential son and all the after rotating around it and we all revolving around what is happening. Look also go and they can be no error on that. And then, of course, the what? The not the details here, but members better. The members of the counselor, the cardboard counselor of continent of what counselor are ineligible either to local all National Assembly, but they are eligible to Universal's with justice. What we, the hands When we brought into existence, Universal House of Justice, by calling the election will be decided. No hands real ever. He'll be remember the House of Justice, and I say to myself, Thank God, but the board members are eligible. The counselor are eligible to Universal House if they wish intended. It is one last article which refers to amendment, and that's a very decent The short one is only two lines, very last year, did you say the Constitution of be amended by decision of the universal justice when the full membership is present, they can't could change in this document. It's all nine members are because the House of Justice here gives you the authority to function on a four month quicker specification. They can delegate Thai people within their houses justice to take a decision, not necessarily all present. But when. It is a basic decision of the riches entire courtroom, the entire membership. Because, no, this is briefly the content of this book. I think that that is some for sale on DDE. You should provide at least one copy for every community and started here. No, I haven't finished with the subject here. So it is now 10 minutes, quarter to three and a three o'clock of a more meeting. And I leave it to our charming point, Our chairman what he wishes to do, Uh, they say that we have some questions to ask you. Please come for Don't Don't bring us true that your logical tears because I'm a doctor too large any? Why many? 123 Take it. The name of that. Yeah, a physical description. Do you feel Oh, yeah. I think that is a a subjective imaginative of individuals. I can only tell you my reaction the generally whenever make meeting again. And then when you enter there you found nine persons smiling and their faces not saying about. They're pointing at the chair. You sit down and then didn't say to you, will you recently the price. A newly depressed today and then whoever is functioning a day as coordinator, it brings you question or a person from you. But the you would feel a sense of off tranquillity and comfort when you are with them because of the House of Justice. And we never say Richard decision like I could do until you do this. Luckiest. Don't with me three o'clock 3 15 Never say that. You never say that. The question. You get an answer. Maybe either the day after in amongst they give you the answer. They never make a decision. So you're feeling this confidence that it is a real house just after your emotional where there, that's I say. It's a subject in question is a personal question. I steam a highly everyone every member of the house. I think it's all fine failure. I'm friends with everybody we knew when we were soldiers in the army and the same brand, you see, So it is different. But when they invested, it is Yeah. Functional off member doubts just value. If you did that, it is the only place where you can found report. Tranquility, lack of fear. What can I tell you? More than that. I don't know if I've answered your John someday, I'm sure you will go. They will get upset. If you go, you're being on the building or you have been one where you received about health. Well, that was before. Well, you went to We're not. Yeah, you You know, maybe something back, You know? You know. Yes. Yeah, I will. Yes, I will. You know that you know that you were sense of justice. Come to the decision What's crossed one time ago, over a year ago to build its seat. Because, as I mentioned a few minutes ago, there is no space for them to work. They work in Holloway in form of bathrooms. Believe it or not. Today they have an office inside the old water reserve war. They made a room out of it so below the garden made it in one of his messages around 53 I believe 54. The statement in which you say that are the buildings off the classical style should build on this ark. I mentioned yesterday, starting with the son of the bobbin, ending with shine over the off the two of the greatest old lady. What is a classical style? Uh, we ever the eyes fool over this misery we see called architecture, Not beg your pardon? A baby bottle. The architects are in this room show. Give the defendant being alive. He really would never died. The second death you're seeing in these buildings, your crop cropping up all over the world. Well, your classical stuff himself guided you reading my book. If you can find the copy Little purchase, I don't know. He inserts guided Sutherland Maxwell what he wanted to incorporate in this. It's very interesting reading that part of it over the architectural conception. And then you choose a composite style, Which is it? Eastern style on the classical Western style. And when you say classing with western style, there is some Greek and there is some room. And then I did this very lovely building. Are very found of it. The sign of about this unique it is a very unique When they, when they became into the choice off another style for the international cars e m self pick up the Greeks, you know God visited. Please. Many times you seen the pasta. Known many times. Andi wanted building block of the Parthenon and editing. Now, if you eliminated the Greek and Roman, what style is left? The modern stuff, but up to no good for me, there are some very fine bill these Iraq buildings with, uh that is not very I'm not very enthusiastic about, but was it the time of the splendor of the church of the Catholic Church and all of Europe was disseminated Baroque building. But it is a wonderful style of architecture which is called the neoclassic architecture, which started with, uh, dear friend dear. Or is it from near Venice his name? It'll come to me And this project, which is this young man I'm enough has presented you see the other suggestions? They ask it all our debts behind them buys those they could be reaches to present a curriculum over the lives and work achievement. No, drilling and on the medic over there, they picked up one architect and so they picked up a minute. Who is a very young, promising architect. Is on the 15 years old on DDE me excel in his own country by winning a competition to build a triumphal arch at the time of the celebration off 25th anniversary off the foundation off the empire off What was the name? And then he made some drawings on the drawing is made of this young lady there that has a picture if you want to see it, You made it. Yes. Made the neoclassic architecture building very serviceable, very functional. They level the department to the point of that. You know, they they can be nine or 19 members in the hours of justice. You knew that on did that. You pass it along and you look at on that. Yes. Made anyway that if they be 19 members of the rooms are already built in there. There are personal off the bill there because of the heads of the party and then every secretary multiplication translation department posted department, incoming, outgoing, made all kinds of things are in this very beautiful building. And the other columns 11 meters died. No, I'm a nearly two meters. You multiply, get myself if I find 1\/2 time and you get to see how tall it is Beautiful. Big columns all around with a very nice little building He came to see me. I knew he must. Little boy, 10 years old, one of the fellows who shook my hand like you and run out the door and come back again and again. The e came and we had two days together. Andi, I think, is very competent. And I think it's going to do a very, very fine job. And if I can give you a secret, I hope I don't get in trouble. He's building in the Iran in the end, embassy in Peking, and he goes out and in and out of China, just like we go to the market and come out again. Secret? No question. But, uh, people are working right where? I'm not sure it isn't in the act. I don't think so. But I think it was a rule set by the garden on the standards of the world. I'm not sure I don't want Thio bleed, but blast emails say something which is right. But the House of Justice in the hour down settle, they can reverse their own decisions. You don't expect it to be 21 back backwards again? Yeah. You tell us something about you that you don't want to go into it, Operator. Well, I can tell you briefly. It's like in a ministry off government. He had departments that they are citizens of 10 minutes of five minutes to six. Minister there, nine ministers there at the present time, each one as a department on There is a day I mentioned. I forgot to mention that is the the yeah Department of Finances the button finances to secure and cut. Did you on approval? Expenditure secure in our furniture is a very large department because deals with every every part of the world, I would say more on the spender children than incoming. From there is a department of research, which is very important. This is really a my my special admiration because that delving in writings and tablets, letters and telegrams since the beginning over the Bobby revelation and it is a tremendous work they're doing and they are very few because you have to be a scholar. You have to be at every compression scholar. And you must know the English language in which everything is being translated. But the present. And they you might know that the House of Justice planning to gather together and republish the writing. So, Bob, all the other many, many money, strips and things that they should be translated and brought to the knowledge of the friends. And then the greatest research has been done in the writings of both about Baha'i on day in the ER In my book, I mentioned that they are about some 24,000 answers The show, you think descend out during his lifetime and many more might come. You see, show your friend did not destroy anything, even the slightest piece of paper, which there was a note and everything. So when you receive a question, he answered. But he never kept a No no, not copy. No carbon. Copy. No file, copy. No, no, no. Register copy. Nothing. You have to. No, I haven't finished. Therefore, when the house started this research, ask everybody in the Bible who had written to the garden please send the answer because of the garden. Savor their letters so they'll be matching the answer of the garden with the question of the believer This has taken years before they are about that is there is a new pope. About two between 24 16 is 8000 letters, which are not being saying yet about believers. I met some believers recently, said, Oh yes, we have a lot of letters. One sent house just said, Why should I send him? And I think friends, if you have anything in the nature of the writing, no matter if it is a small piece of paper, either by about beloved how law should defend your bar, Please send it to the House of Justice even if you make a Xerox copy and they can have it. So by doing that, the source of the knowledge of the House of Justice before legislative comes from the did not these figures of fate. I don't before and they cannot legislate on something which that is a very diligent relations, but in our deaths in the park. But then it is a department of translation, which is very difficult because we deal with people who are either speak strange or Spanish weirdo or something else. And they don't write in English because it long but they don't know. And so we have some voluntary girls We ever gone there who are proficient in these languages and they are reserving their department. And then, of course, that it is a very larger department of the maintenance all over the holy places. And that is also there. They were Khanum committed on that They're not about their own, that they worked three persons on committed to make a decision. Well, in your it's like a Ministry of the Kingdom of off off Denmark Forest into something like that, but absolutely been greeted in there because off the branching outside of the country, their market will speak Danish in Finnish, all the Minister of Foreign Affairs worry. But there we branch out in all directions. Answer next. No. Yeah, that No, it is the house that just is going to decide. But I don't think they're ready to do it now. Or you there. Oh, yes, the master say I must say when I say your rest are just decided that I do hope it is English for my sake. You live in time? Yeah. And concerning the question of prayer, that country shit today. And neither should be done according to the hour. Thank you, but because the time being all parts of the planet Yeah, but recently one of the best surgical attending that time of day from six o'clock in the morning. So sick in the afternoons. Now the question is, is changing the law. I told you, Don't ask it a larger question. You you better You better just that the House of Justice if you want. But personally, I think it's a very irrational. But you better if you have any doubt or your national centers in doubt, Osterhaus justice, then anything which is gonna be good. Will Andi within two sides. I think God could give everybody not there with a microscope. Oh, you're right. I forgot to tell you that it is. The prison time is indefinite. They know the House of Justice. Not set any limits. I think that booting you the urgency off completing the nine year plan infested say that they will appoint them for five years. And then really completing on your planet is being as being stepped aside and continue to serve. I don't know how long it will be because if they're elected toe national order for a local body day that short, they decided they wanted to serve administrative continue. But if you are in the universe, if you will not go back to secondary school four divine race, but with people. I great. Really I can't go Then cried. Remember, my dear are gonna be here. But can you remember that I forgive you. I remember that in the event of divine justice, sugar thing speaks of the protruding awfully faces over racial. His international is and so and that is they certainly not not your sympathy racialist that he was in Born in us where I didn't know because, you know, it's very strange because in my mind, in North America, in the certain state of North America, there's been a terrific racialism against the Negro. Do you know how many over these at the time with the colony? And even now are many children of English? People were sucking lee milk from the breast of a Negro woman and color mama. So what can you can you say that it is involved. I think it is the atmosphere in the world today. Yeah, Akka. No, you're not in the outside world wearing off. Now. The question is, Hi, baby. A whole one. He asked you out there, working department. And I say, Dave, there's a group of three of making position or basic decision. Are there to be old together, the order or the administration to stamp on the envelope? That's a very simple one. Somebody would do that. But they make a decision on message like that. Elaborating a plan. They worked very elaborate plan I got here here, soft prepared, which is worldwide large, More more than that to be known before everything together. And it is in the Constitution. This'll item, which I read here tells you exactly what they do, That's all. And they say the oddity The judicial I mentioned this morning they're old incorporated, and they're not in conflict with the children. Captain. All right. You are okay. No, no. Oh, one. Yeah, well, my recollection on this matter goes out almost 20 years now. I remember that somebody was stolen along with this so called more than art in the garden. a shook you say this is no. But he said, What about the birthday over by the Baha'i? Artie said, That's very far along the way. So this is the answer. I can give it to you. But if we speak of after under the influence of this more velocity, let's call it that way. A deprivation or locked, which is sister. Today will be better. Stay home. They don't call it Baha'i. Somebody would arrive with a creative spirit, great creative spirit and produces something great. But then we can say this is buy off. I wish you well. If you want to start something. Yes, Iran. I didn't know that. Well, there is a there is somebody does that in turn. Well, hey there, Ranger by themselves. There's no secretary. No, but there is someone who's always taking notes. Sometimes 12 persons taking notes all the time. They delegate that time to take notes or anything. Bring it to his place, interpreted on and type. And it's his way of Contrini. I can't tell you because I don't see it more than 10 15 minutes, maybe often out with them, and then I'll go away and leave them to the care the way I have a meeting. You have a measure off with the evening. I would be very, very glad to say good bye to everybody because we're leaving girl anymore. Explainable. They said in the telegram way on DDE. But before I finished now shoulder terribly well, forgive me for taking your time. You do like I used to do with school. I usedto be beyond the defendant city way yesterday. Dr Akka really think the magistrate war. Hey, he has a great advantage over me because is able to understand Arabic on ocean which I do not understand. So my field of research or knowledge is very limited to the western world, which is really a very, very Oh, yeah, disheartening limitation I have on. There are so many stories about the garden. It was widely came to my mind. He said he was studying in bail below the master pick up one young men but it belonged to the Baghdad family that being giving great service to the court since the day of luck. And you said never to go. Your name was he said you live it to goto the medical school in Beirut and become a physician. And he paid for the tuition. And they are. Baghdad became a position. But during the time he waas in Beirut to show your friend was there following the law portions of education Does he have that badly? In one of these Master Report, which published in The Stars of the West, It's in the ancient magazine related when one day should get trained. The arrival while he was doing dissecting an animal. I don't remember both a raccoon or something or a cat or something I can't remember now. And, uh, that's somebody knows you go to London, you live all the time in the world way. Yeah, And so that was the voice of truth and sugar Friend was looking and he wanted to know this and he wanted to know that you know the setting. You know, these courses in medicine, they do some universities comparative anatomy between certain animals on the human being found any and no. So there's that was vivisection. You this wild cat on the sugar friend Look at everything. And in that time he was looking through is a man after me, and he was looking and listen to him and texting. The next day he comes to the 20 Baghdad place where he was working in your office. Whatever divorces studying any repeats Word by word divorce the other end of the day before No, that's something. Good bye, everyone. So many things in my heart in my mind to tell you that time is immeasurable. Just brush your so completing it What I said to you yesterday I will speak to you on this briefly This wonderful document. Now I know that examination. No marks. How many have you ever read? The dates it raise your hand. We know Too bad. About 2% is better than nothing. It is better than nothing. I said the other day that the sugar fading the scene say the passing of the master. Yeah, that this magnificent obsession to bring into existence Universal House. Just if you are acquainted with these writings, you will see that from the very early days off his ministry. Let's make it 1920. Do whatever he could be made. Mention over the reversal House of injustice. And I say yesterday as the bride groom is longing for his brother everywhere you know, that's just. And when the universal ask, Justin will come in to assist. He said it to me. One like this is not not in my book. I long for the day when the House of Justice will come into existence and I can only do my work of interpreting and propagating that wasit longer. That the garden is not anymore in this world and there is no guardianship and therefore the institutions which the hands I had the privilege to bring into existence. Universal House of Justice in 1963. Yes, now they hate over the face. It isn't nobody above them and God and the billowing out Anyone who is writing say when the universal House of justice will come into resistance, they will make their own constitution. I didn't say I'm going to do it. They will make their own constitution. He would never bean the chairman over the house and get justice for life. And so this assessing following garden. But it did not come to pass. And so the lighting man off Universal with justice waited from 1963 to 1972. I think it's nine years I'm writing my automatic took nine years to prepare this document. This documentary is the most document after the one we have mentioned before. This is a document of the new and year from feeling the plans of Baha'i. I will speak to your briefing and I want you to study this. It seems very simple. Just few pages, just a few pages. I think it is about 16 patients, including in the front. This piece here, 16 less three makes 15. You're right. 13. It isn't divided in two parts. One is a declaration of trust on. I'm sure you understand the declaration of Atrocities. It is a legal document, and at the same time it's a spiritual document which tells us that the purpose of the House with justice it's function against one. And then in the bylaws No, that's the second part of the bi Bi Lo's has out of the rules by which the house with Justin can come into existence. Deep comment, assistance and we perpetuate itself. And then the most important mmm part is it the connection between the supreme bother with faith and that l. A. Towards which are the members off the national same withdraw from the world. That's what the master said there and the local assemblies and the massive believers throughout the world. I started this document and I remember that when it became into assistance, I wrote So the house with justice, the document and I say how wonderful it is we have now such assurance over the alternative with institutions. The concern additional O r. What would call them? Um but the world is no ties with ligament with the supreme body. We are part of the supreme body to our other tools and they are showering, dispensing upon us God, blessing because they are a body without ever this is very important. So in this document there is something which I will tell you briefly. I made some notes sometime ago and I happened to ever been me. I charge knows almost much are searching yesterday to find the hidden somewhere in my bag. Looks big. He doesn't know you. If you'll have an impression. I let you go by five minutes. I cannot add anything to this part of the city. I can tell you about my dreams. I can take back my swimming and it's not the best part which I think is most touching, is a difference. Part party, which it is an invocation. How many governments in the world ever written their constitutions are putting an interrogation at the very beginning? I don't know who is in a story who there's something that goes solution of the United States say may not created equal before God that's over. But they're not annoy you the old constitutions over the old world. The waiter Crown heads say that we are kings, but right from God, that's all. But no invocation. This invocation of wish you leave it the better. It would be too long. So I made a little resume of it. Then he stays there. You didn't address it to the supreme and most exalted pin Baha'i. This is premium mediator Baha'i. He's a the I'm trying to be vain without glasses. I made up do your region origin off excellent names. Baha'i, the bearer of light of unity and the bear or the law off wantonness. This is the preface This an invocation about the House of Justice so that this constitution will remain a job. A shining jewels for 500,000 years. Who's played here before. Where is it? It's also the authority why we have a house with justice. Where did that springs from? When it springs from This is quality. And the answer is the first list of all is the actors. The writing of the Hola intended interpretations off Abdu'l-Baha and show you, Finn. If you wanted to become a scholar on the House of Justice, you can enjoy yourself because there is so much to put it together. I haven't done a little work myself trying to plan a second book. I don't know if I'll do it. Putting together to show our destiny of this institution is pre ordained by God trends that there is nothing I like in the world in this world. All the governments of a political ideology of the revolution, on the terrorism nothing. There is nothing that compared. And in the churches nothing can be compared to this very simple document. There are no frills attached to it. The essence. What the God that detective Tow them. It's so I said before, what is the authority? Because there is no guardian. The House of Justice, the head of the family and the Supreme Institution by faith and we almost turned on them or to it. Whatever you want to use, what now you want to use to it? So that primo target there's no one about it. The House of Justice is a responsible for the unity for the unit of the friends. In the progress of the fate. You would find that listed in here. But I made it in presentable manners. Or you will remember And of course, the hands not having a garden. We are directed by the House of Justice in the fields, off propagation. Oh, and protection of the faith. And another important point is something which is the alien to most of you. Really? I could ask. It is a contribution which is a taxation by a whole lot, which is they got cold. The write off what belongs to God to give it to God and it is cooked. Look, it in person is or cocoa. I hope I pronounce it right At the present time, the friends of the Western world, I did not ask you to contribute to the cooler, but these they're friends from Persia and the east already one who are supporting a expenses administered by the House of Justice for the Propagation Administration. Propagation problem If it trains in the passion from, I don't go into details what it is to be paid, but they do it gladly. Joyfully. They know that the limb for the life, blood off institutions of the state it would not progress unless we have means material means unfortunate. That is something required that will permit to reach faraway post. Assist the pioneers, build buildings by temple land, built the temples, build it out of the seat of the house of Justin's publish books you don't know are pressures is dismounted that flows by the generosity or the eastern trains. Now they are the houses, just administrator when the guardianship of the garden also the administrator of the EPA Khanum. But he's not there. They are later defect. They administered for me. No, this is where it comes to. The authority now duties over the universal absolute justice. But don't think because they're following, and three for matter would ever do this to the contract. When we are getting up in the morning, later, have a breakfast and be protesting because of the toast is good. Then because it's cold. They already playing in the shine and they don't go to the signs. And I've seen it in by six o'clock in the morning roaming around. Go to the shrine. Pray there is a meeting. They go in prayer. Please. Friends tell me which government in the world no matter which one you mentioned goes playing before going to the office, I think you should allow me. They have a little communication by telephone with way. What did they can engineer to break in the world? That's what, in my opinion, this is my personal opinion. But remember, the house is just go in. And now your friends, you know you better. Just yourself, because when you ever pass card, it's a temple. You live your new community, the local ascend and sound. And they go, don't they got to go there. So you better get up earlier and earlier and particularly during the summer over over Sweden at 3 30 in the morning, you go in front. I'm not joking. This is a new world or so. So we charted the powers and duties the two things over the house and Justin. Now I'm sure in your heart. You know what it is, But I wanted to be the refreshing your memory or tell you so that you will remember and pray for the house. Just don't think because they are a infallible and free of errors. They don't need a trail. Supposedly everybody guarding himself sometime ask you to pray for him. Abdu'l-Baha used to say pray for me. So the first of all is the preservation of the sacred text. Yes, David. We're speaking about what the tragedy has bean with sacred writings off many of the main religion. Because they've been interpolated that they have bean time, put it where they have been poisoned. And someone the integrity does not exist any longer. But Alison Justice ese there, guard. If the guard the custodian off the integrity over the sacred text, nobody can tamper with them. Number. They can play with them. That's one number one. And they never close it to advance in the interest of the effect of God, whether this is our common desire. But the house is justice. This is one over there. Beauty advanced the interest of the course of God. What means the interest? Of course. Where to split, They try to the world, protected the fate of the world and so on and so on. And then it it isn't toe span. And concerning date, the administrative institutions we saw that gives a map that belong in the garden had made on It just brought tears to my eyes because I had the map supreme to the needle. Look at about Mrs Cassetti Topography, Akka Sector room are you looking at? And you don't want to? Two other international look, we have 114 National broke that in a span of the fate of a god until the fate of Baha'i covers, they assume the sea, he says. Abdu'l-Baha himself covers all the seas on the connected with the suspension. Is it toe usher that is Open the door to the old daughter of about. I wish we could stay about three weeks. Really say that I was telling my life my heart is broken because there's so much we can learn it together to usher in the world. I can't resist myself, but the world is divided into that is a Cleveland. You're terrible privilege. Recently were that large government churches, political parties revolution, atomic bomb me everything you can imagine. And then it is so decided. That reason world door the hope of the world They hope for everyone. For those in the street you wanna still asleep but also are in the couches Sleep for those who will say that they are there are any obstacle they don't know old daughter. And this is one of the Duke University housing justice toe usher, the world daughter Baha'i belonged to show your thinking In his last message, which was written about 15 days before his passing. He said the embryonic world water bottle we know embryonic is is even smaller than the new born baby. My jets would be all the past 17 years old and we still are in the embryonic stage, lacking the something inside an egg which has not developed. Now this is the do you want to do the universal. Just I think I'm taking too much. The next point is important in this. I made a decision and I said that this is the Bible. What are we doing for the world? People comes to me saying, Why don't we start to listen? Webster? Friends, we are preparing the spiritual atmosphere in the world. Why did they do this part of the world enough to hear this part of the world? They're moving. All the awful things that I have are making a model over the world. We are preparing a spiritually aspiration or every man in the world. And when this this confusion here will let you down, the world would be ready spiritually toe Accept a unity. Not before that. And this is one of the Duke of Universal House. Just mad about today to think every day about that. So it is to promote in the chief individual and collective Baha'i spiritual life. This is a great order to achieve spiritual life. Mr. Xie Minute Maid button with references from the healthy and strength of the local assembly. If we do know they have a spiritual life in our communities. And united seven the world order about will never come. We are the dear friends in room. Very charming lady. It was a physician was for their arrest. She came all the time too hard meetings. But she said unless we have a world more than six months, I'm not going to be about you people are the way they want to see tomorrow morning. This is it. Long process. One time charming American ladies at the table of the Garden way in Booth School. I used to take it. The teacher got well, you said when we should let it go. Danger Baha'i Garden. Look around, my dear. Will take almost 500 years. Sure you're family. I'm not be here. You see? You see. Oh, but you and the orders. Believers trotted. World will work fast. We can cut to This starts in 1\/2. We concocted 1\/3 and I'll remember friends that this is the house of Justice cannot go preaching in the street to be like the Salvation Army and say they the day of the resurrection has come. Give it the right wrist watch. We've seen the plans. They it's up to us to get and then every spiritual eyes of the masses. And then we shall labor the world on the job. A whole lot of friends remember, this is part of your heritage on the list of your duties beside the House of Justice. Well, the captain doesn't go down in the engine room and put his hold on the machine can do that impossible. Like the guard. They could not do that. But we are the oil and we're a part of the machine. And if we don't put two things together, print, let's go to bed and sleep for the rest of us. So somebody's Cristian sets that are preaching a day all over the world with Texas petroleum money. Their mission is everywhere their problems with the kingdom of God that sometime I ask you to remember when it's come to go when the Christ will come from, let them wait for we have we know the way Oh, dear, Dear, dear dear On first illumination or the souls of the man look, friends, this is something fostered illuminations in the souls of men. We must buy us after our community way to humanize themselves of men. We can't wait for the house with just to give a little pinch of something. And we had a luminous spiritually. It's our life reflecting the bond, which is very important a little, but I'm not going to preach in India. I'm going to tell her than they do to the universal justice and then this part of duty groups. Also law. What laws can you little house just tonight the Universal's Jessica and that those which are not in existence in the sector, right? Not only that, but they cannot change. Known all the laws off the actors and interpretation of Abdu'l-Baha. Sure, Griffin, they can do that, but they can make laws, and not only they can make a nose. But if in 10 years, 15 years, five years, three days they become aware that the laws is not about it anymore. They can reverse their own decision and make a new one. But they cannot infringe or change the laws, which are part of a large segments kitchens that's understood fuller and the no the, uh, one of the prerogative, perhaps the most important, which I mentioned before. What show your friends say to me one day is the interpretation of it. The House of Justice cannot interpret. Distracting back to the House of Justice can gratify obscure parts of. And I love to think what can be something more secure or something which is not comprehensible to our mental development or our degree of spirituality, but they can. That's strike. It's not interpreted. So that's part of the beauty. This is a everything so beautiful they remember. The house just doesn't do it by pushing a button or opening a switch. It's we we have to follow what? The house injustice as decreed for themselves and in that deliberations and the next one in the development of the countries in the stability of states, the development of the conference in the stability of states. Who's going to do that? The House of Justice for Michael? We are. We have to keep a relationship good relation with all the people who were there to keep a good relationship with governments of the world. Remember all that bow last given also way. But this is the way the influence Now there is a gentleman here, Mr Maybe, Um no, baby. He's got the little brother. I think it's younger than you, isn't it, little brother? But is it is it is also getting ready. I saw you getting great. Who has been spending the last 18 years? 17 years should be possible going from one country to another from one continent to another. Oh, I don't know the poor man, I I'm surprising. Still alive. Really? Because of the suffering and the fatigue from government to government to make possible that faith is recognized to make possible that influence and spiritual influence of the state on their country's give them lost there. This is important things. We must understand, not let's go on. If you want to know more asking, Mr No, you know that important point we spoke. I spoke yesterday about our big boat to the drives. So he stops a man Khanum and I say that that's the administrative order on the people of bar the members of ourselves and justice on this is a spiritually and administrative center already Baha'i. Why not Mom Carmel received over the institutions therefore universe out justice as its constitutional to preserve, to develop the spiritual and administrative center in iPhone and Akka. And we see that since they took power in 18 1963 today, have accomplished the most administer Bye affairs. We'll go. But this is your apartment. Your honey lips today coming. He's a magician way. Yeah, I see that The Minister Baha'i affairs of the world over and prevent abuses off privileges. Not much of that prevent abuses the privilege within and outside of the things we didn't have faith in outside. So friends anyone of also as a note or Italian nature. You better sell it. No, I should get a drink because they know privileges. In effect, the greatest religion. Faith is love of God. And if you have, my dear, nothing would go wrong with you on your community. Then administer funds, endowment and properties. This is something tremendous. They've department. Really In my heart, I feel sorry for those nine men there. Whoever the life is a completely dedicated to the certain political. Whenever the bow look this way, it's all rounder than constant relation. Morning tonight, Constant. If nothing else. You know all the thoughts once everybody take a recreation and every little picking me. But that's only a temporary medical practice on the eight. Easy is taxing Great taxi physical and their intellectual. Sometime that's and then they did all this just re functions like, of course, judicial. Well, I can't go into details, but you do when they blow the gun and establishing the the international by council, which was at the time appointed by human. I wanted that we establish some courts in the Islamic state's to counter at the Islamic courts because you know many countries, including a wrong. All the Arab countries, they don't have a court of law like we have. I mean, they're George's right? The wrong, corrupted and uncorrupted, really would dispense this administration of justice when the mood that says something, that's the law. And so he wanted to a subject. But now that the House of Justice has come, that's a justice as a judicial duties to function as a cool and this judicial duties is it to adjudicate disputes? Of course. Between the pale over the fit, I don't go into the details. How will we ever know you? But yeah, if it should be one that else injustices the proper authority which will make a decision and then they will adjudicate. Also cases of a violation of the laws over the face. There are many there many violations that I cannot speak to you because perhaps is not the proper place. Continue. But they casted the many violation over the law, the court. And, you know, in the in the Western world we're only five laws to observe. And those low some Aqdas laws cannot be enforced because there is no means we can enforce the law, the law, The prayer is one obligatory prayers every day. Then it is the law we can't force. I'm sorry I say this, but it hurts me. I've seen people that they say, Oh, I can't take it fast because I get so weak. And then they pop singer told a long, long way off course you get. He'll get very weak by popular cigarette. This is another. Tear it down another territory. I don't want him enter into it. But you know, there's a certain enzyme where producers in the liver which by digesting on this enzyme I destroyed by tobacco. Now, if you want to keep on smoking anyone No, please do. But your life will be shorter in the service. Or I can assure you closer departing. But this is something you cannot be forced. This is a lot of the law and so on. I don't go into the taste. Yeah, and they did the indigenisation case that they also Joseph has directed to decree Suntan. We'll be leaving yesterday was asking what kind of the center's sanctions they can't put you in jail. They can do nothing they might deprive. Aborting right, which is also is only attribute of the National Assembly. Better they can find you monetary when they touch the pocket of the hurt. Everything hurts you when you talk, you know that. So that stopped you. And I hope that you would need But that sanctions might be over such a nature. And they know the The Eagles in the Capitol Hill of Aroma will be screaming that They say that because the romance of the source of all legislation for the civilized world problem and the also Joseph is that God not in the sense of the guardianship. They are the Guardians. Request Odeon over divine justice. We air somebody's political party. They speak about justice. But they were the divine in its inventor because they belong to any small Where God don't know tent up. You see, you can imagine your imagination of these political party. They don't believe in Northern. They want justice. What can we just minds justice? There is no such impossible. There is another chicken. It is a little story this to release your attention in a kingdom they were looking for the just men on the the eyepieces say that we don't have a judge's justice established. If we can get to the the shaft of a just man and bring it to the king and then we shall wear this shirt justice for it. And so he sent the head old on scouts all over the world with the trumpet. Been properly. Look, Louise, Just man with just a just man was happy and it was one day left. If they didn't bring the shirt, the head will go down. And so they were in the field of despair. This over New shepherd. We're playing his flute and the ships around when they say, Are you happy? Many years. Do you have a justice? Iran actually say that he let this justice because God is within my heart jump. Yeah, no shit. And then they have a duty to enforce the decision you already attributes. The titles will be given to remember Universal House with justice. Yes. Today we read some reds on myself. From the tablet of it, there is a I recall the man of justice. No, no, no justice. They won already yesterday that people are Baha'i mentioned in the book of names you say and the people of the bar mention Booker will come out of the off these title Baha'i laws given to them people of the power mentioned in the books Name, Book of Names, The Trustee Off God amongst the Servants and The Day Spring, which means rising over the son of authority in these countries. Remember, all the continents of the world are God's country and the and they remember the house. Just the reversals of justice are the trustee of gold for all these countries. This is important, you know, in local assembly, National Assembly Sometimes we had influenced by opinion of believers I've seen recently in some cases which I don't want to discuss with you the believer Gan I'm sort of used good, but is a gang together? I guess the decision of the assembly on they wanted the assembly to change the decision that's no good into by fate in the West, Remember versus justice. And they should be also a member of the second hour of justice which National Assembly they are not responsible for. The believers for their physician go for Vincent, they let another political party. You see, they cannot be influenced by feelings. An opinion, Even if you should be the as they say here, even they should be a massive bill. You You see, they cannot be employed. This is equity. This is justice. And then they must preserve the write off on factory decision on factory means they cannot be changed to make a decision on they, not only for themselves, but for the entire Baha'i world community and then Baha'i for them. God will really inspire them with whatsoever. You will. And this is the source of their infallibility. Individually, they're like man, lack of myself in you, even if you had to go. But today, when they are in a collegiate meeting, they are infallible and free or better. And I think we have had an experience now about that. 12 years. And we see how the paper is progressing under their leadership. Now, Friends is 10 minutes to 12. How long you wanted to go on? Wait way. Have you have okay? Giving me about 15 minutes more. Can you bear it? Request from the friends they want. They question that in the option. Also want to come here to listen to you is uninsured. How will you approach him again? Yes, I don't know that. So then we continue at 15. All the shadows with me. We'll leave. We live. It is how much school? All right, friends. I made a drawing me. This is not good that they very Chinese or not equal Come and make a wonderful wedding is taking care of the baby. That's that one. That should get things. They gave it to the table. You know, under the God didn't give a gift to give a gift which was prepared it in euros. That chatter manner that is Persian silk handkerchief for the large. Then you had it Something rapid in that you gave me several gifts which are still treasure all rapid in this thing said I want to give this to you and I opened it. And there it was. In what? This is based off the hood of everything Basically moved Very thing like that. The on in just screwed a glass I looking at If you knew where to look, it would be this way. On this glass there was a picture on it is a little pull the holding and that is a picture. There was a picture off the off the tomb of the greatest only by Khanum and saying that you go. This has been in my desk for a long, long time. I want you to happen. This is the symbol of the Universal house. Just and I want you to keep it all missing. Front about your eyes. Well, of course, when I'm not at home 11 to keep mentally. When you say that the believers and the National Assembly and the door you say the National Assembly will sustaining the door. We must history deformation of the National Assembly. This was before we are the twin. Yes, the National Assembly was Switzerland. And he said that the door is in the house. Just most Hastings, for that I have a doctor. If you honor of your visit, not altogether, because you cannot change in the room. You would see this thing? Yes, Time. Limit it back to the light. And every time I pass it is on this. I see the I think they're eight Khanum. But you know, we have 114 Khanum in time. You know, United Nations has given a statistic about 240 nations. Someone, they're not free. They're still part of a protectorate, entanglement with the influence spheres of influence. But when it would be 240 columns sustain this door, deliver meat is going to be a great day of rejoicing. Not be sure, because you just keep your they be under than 28 at the end of a five year plan, and then we'll go on. And, of course, if that's the plan of the House made. But if there should be an independent country, we care will come into independence with in reasonable time. And there is a possibility that house will call the minute for the election universal over National Assembly. And so this will be looking back and visited a norm. Yeah, right. And then it would be looking like today. Don't be so many, Khanum. My arm's getting tired. Thank you. That you cannot see through one. Hold them in the order. And this is our duty to a slowly so they don't know. We're not supposed to do that. I show you something, which is something goes wrong. This problem will crumble down. Oh, because 34 other assembly every failed. They didn't they didn't relate to them. They were to be doing something else. And so they could be no election of a national and another one down because of something, you know, divine down. You know what happens already? This There's a new institution equal to that the universal justice in the world. You have made a study of UK compared to Islamic convert to Christianity compared to catalyse. Nothing like impossible. They they cannot conceive without way. Bob last conceivable, but it's not my idea of the whole family and that these institutions we lost into eternity. But we must support in a strange you have a plan. Five years. It's easy. Do the easy thing first, and the guards used to say to me, I always do the easy thing to take it out of my way in life. The way I got myself, these things for the difficult things You between one good night's sleep in the next good night. You found a way to solve with that too. That's true. So, friends, it is time to go. I should be. Now that they're giving me the time, you see how generous they are. This committee I spare you on way can terminate Now you can make yourself pretty for your lunch on. They never speak to you about the bylaws and something else, right? Whatever you want, we shall continue the presentation. All that is Document Park which was introduced it to you this morning On that the part we Houston, this morning Wasn't the declaration on the truck to complete that for those who have not seen it.
