Note Reading ease score: 32.2 (College-level). Difficult to read.
Summary "Bahá'í Administration" by Shoghi Effendi is a religious treatise written in the early 20th century. This work focuses on the administrative principles and governance of the Bahá'í Faith, emphasizing the guidance of leadership figures in the movement and the importance of unity among its followers. The content aims to establish a framework for the Bahá'í community's organization and the responsibilities entrusted to its leaders. At the start of the book, the author presents excerpts from the "Will and Testament of 'Abdu'l-Bahá," laying the foundation for the principles that guide Bahá'í administration. These early sections evoke a sense of reverence for the past leaders of the Bahá'í Faith, while also urging followers to embody the spirit of service and dedication to their faith. Shoghi Effendi describes the roles and responsibilities of the elected councils, known as Spiritual Assemblies, in guiding the community, fostering unity, and engaging in teaching the principles of the Bahá'í Faith to the wider world. The opening sets an earnest tone, aligning the hearts and actions of the Bahá'ís towards the mission laid out by their founders. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
