Ridvan Message 2007 From the House of Justice

To the Baha'is of the World

Dear loved Friends,

The first year of the Five Year Plan bears eloquent testimony to the
spirit of devotion with which Baha'u'llah's followers have embraced
the framework for action presented in our message of 27 December 2005
and their commitment to advancing the process of entry by troops.
Where this framework has been applied coherently in all its dimensions
in a cluster, steady progress is being achieved, both in terms of the
participation of the believers and their community life and in terms
of numerical growth, with some clusters reporting enrolments in the
hundreds every few months and others in scores. Vital to this
development has been a heightened awareness of the spiritual nature of
the enterprise, together with an increased understanding of those
decision-making instruments that are defined by the principal features
of the plan.

Prior to our launching the current series of global Plans focused on
the single aim of advancing the process of entry by troops, the Baha'i
community had passed through a stage of rapid, large-scale expansion
in many parts of the world-an expansion which ultimately was
impossible to sustain. The challenge, then, lay not so much in
swelling the ranks of the Cause with new adherents, at least from
populations of proven receptivity, but in incorporating them into the
life of the community and raising up from among them adequate numbers
dedicated to its further expansion. So crucial was it for the Baha'i
world to address this challenge that we made it a central feature of
the Four Year Plan and called upon National Spiritual Assemblies to
spend the greater part of their energies creating institutional
capacity, in the form of the training institute, to develop human
resources. Ever-increasing contingents of believers, we indicated,
would need to benefit from a formal programme of training designed to
endow them with the knowledge and spiritual insights, with the skills
and abilities, required to carry out the acts of service that would
sustain large-scale expansion and consolidation.

Today as we observe the workings of those clusters which are in a
robust state of growth, we note that in every one of them the friends
have continued to strengthen the institute process, while learning to
mobilize their expanding nucleus of active supporters of the Faith, to
establish an efficient scheme for the coordination of their efforts,
to weave their individual initiatives and collective endeavours into
an effective pattern of unified action, and to draw on the analysis of
pertinent information in planning the cycles of their activities. That
they have found the means for carrying forward the work of expansion
and consolidation hand in and-the key to sustained growth-is
demonstrable. Such evidence will surely inspire every devoted believer
to remain resolute on the path of systematic learning that has been
set.

The accomplishments of these years of prodigious effort have not been
confined to those clusters where the work of large-scale expansion and
consolidation is being thus revitalized. The approach taken during the
Four Year Plan, followed by the Twelve Month Plan and the previous
Five Year Plan, proved instrumental in creating conditions for the
believers to extend their endeavours to a wide circle of people,
engaging them in various aspects of community life. The benefits of
the decade-long process of capacity-building in the three participants
of the global Plans are now broadly apparent. Everywhere there was a
need to gain an understanding of the dynamics of human resource
development. Everywhere the friends had to learn the requirements of
steady growth-to promote systematic action and to avoid distractions,
to bring certain elements of collective decision-making close to the
grassroots and to create communities with a sense of mission, to
encourage universal participation and to accommodate different
segments of society in their activities, particularly children and
junior youth, the future champions of the Cause of God and builders of
His civilization.

With so firm a foundation in place, the foremost thought in the mind
of each and every believer should be teaching. Whether in their
personal efforts they teach their friends in firesides and then
involve them in the core activities or use these activities as their
primary instrument for teaching, whether as a community they make
their work with children and junior youth the initial thrust in a
cluster or focus first on the older generations, whether in their
collective endeavours they visit families in teams as part of an
intensive campaign or call on seekers in their homes periodically over
time- these are decisions that can only be made according to the
circumstances and possibilities of the friends and the nature of the
populations with whom they interact. What all must acknowledge,
irrespective of circumstance, are both the crying need of a humanity
that, bereft of spiritual sustenance, is sinking deeper into despair
and the urgency of the responsibility to teach with which we each have
been entrusted as members of the community of the Greatest Name.

Baha'u'llah has commanded His followers to teach the Cause. Already
thousands upon thousands are energetically applying the provisions of
the Plan to open up avenues for them to guide souls to the Ocean of
His Revelation. We look with expectant eyes to the day when teaching
is the dominating passion in the life of every believer and when the
unity of the community is so strong as to enable this state of
enkindlement to express itself in unremitting action in the field of
service. This, then, is our ardent hope for you and the object of our
most fervent prayers at the Sacred Threshold.

The Universal House of Justice
