AGE CORRESPONDENT - MUMBAI

‘Founder descended from King David’
Neal Chase Ben Joseph Aghsan

Oct. 14: Throwing the gauntlet at all other sects of the Baha'i faith in the country, the Baha'is Under the Provisions of the Covenant (BUPC) has formed the National Baha'i Council in India, with its centre at Mumbai. The BUPC believes that Baha'u'llah, the founder of the Baha'i faith, was a descendant of King David. It also believes that the throne line did not end with the death of the first guardian Shoghi Effen-di but is kept alive by the great-great-grandson of Baha'u'llah, Neal Chase Ben Joseph Aghsan.

According to BUPC members, the throne line of King David, which functions as the hereditary sign to recognize the true Universal House of Justice (UHJ) of Baha'u'llah, has been mistakenly construed to have ended in 1957. Citing Psalm 89, wherein God promises King David that his descendants would rule on his throne forever, the BUPC believes that this prophecy that was fulfilled by the coming of Baha'u'llah is still kept alive by Neal Chase and he is the rightful president of the UHJ.

The BUPC maintains that peace will be established when all of mankind recognises this true spiritual government. Blaming Ruhiyyih Khanum, wife of Effendi and the Hands for trying to reduce the importance of the UHJ, the BUPC maintains that the act was aimed at turning the faith into an oppressive organised religion, in stark contrast to the principles of the faith.

Ridvan Message 2010

“THIS HOUSE OF JUSTICE ENACTETH THE LAWS AND THE GOVERNMENT [EXECUTIVE BRANCH (DAVIDIC KINGSHIP) OF THE UHJ] ENFORCETH THEM. THE LEGISLATIVE BODY MUST REINFORCE THE EXECUTIVE [THE LIVING DAVIDIC KING], THE EXECUTIVE [PRESIDENT OF THE UHJ] MUST AID AND ASSIST THE LEGISLATIVE BODY SO THAT THROUGH THE CLOSE UNION AND HARMONY OF THESE TWO FORCES, THE FOUNDATION OF FAIRNESS AND JUSTICE MAY BECOME FIRM AND STRONG, THAT ALL THE REGIONS OF THE WORLD MAY BECOME EVEN AS PARADISE ITSELF.” (WILL AND TESTAMENT OF ‘ABDU’L-BAHA, PAGE, 15)

They have no executive. They are the Covenant-breakers!


Mr. Neal Chase (Current Guardian of the Baha'i Faith)

TO THE FAITHFUL AND FIRM BAHA’I COMMUNITY OF INDIA AND ALL THE BAHA’IS UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF THE COVENANT THROUGHOUT THE WORLD

Dear Beloved Friends!

Though we are fallible, our faith is infallible. Though we are imperfect, our faith is perfect. This is because our faith is not of ourselves, but it originates from God, the source of all infallibility and the source of all perfection.

Now the faith of men is imperfect, for man’s understanding of God is imperfect. And the religion of men is imperfect because the religion of men is not the same thing as the religion of God. In confusing these two, many have fallen, and are no longer with us today, but many, many more, have been resurrected from the power of death by the irresistible power of life, that is the regenerating power of the Covenant passed down through the throne-line of King David, from Baha’u’llah to ‘Abdu’l-Baha and thence to the true UHJ (body and head both) of which the Davidic Kingship is one fallible member as are all the rest of his fallible co-members.

Thus while these are all fallible members of the UHJ, the decisions of this UHJ (head and body both) are “freed from all error” (Will and Testament of ‘Abdu’l-Baha (W&T), p. 14). These decisions are freed from all error, because the members firstly know they are the fallible members and thus they are free from the error of arrogance and false aggrandizement, where men imagine themselves to be more than men, though essentially human, they craved a “station above their station” (Tablet of the Holy Mariner) to be even above God (Is. Ch. 14).

Consider two fallible rods, one of wood and one of iron. From the wood comes carbon and combined with iron in a dry cell comes the form of the battery. From this combination in perfect proportion and harmony, a chemical reaction is produced and electricity flows, which is called the current. So these component parts, none of which in and of themselves produce the flow of current, but when combined and assembled in the perfect combination and form, provides this mysterious and important effect.
So the true UHJ (www.UHJ.net), organized correctly under the provisions of the Covenant, with the living Davidic king as the irremovable member for life, produces this stimulating current, even as the ark of Moses produced a similar physical and spiritual effect. Thus, its symbolism as “GOLD” – gold representing the power of the sun, light and heat, and the electromagnetic force, the stimulation of the etheric substance produced.

“And in this present cycle, because it is the mightiest of Dispensations, that rod grown out of the vegetable kingdom [wood symbolizing the rod of David of the genealogy of the throne-line of Davidic Kings growth and reproduction appointed head of the UHJ (W&T, p. 14)] and that rod of iron [the elected members of the Council] will be transformed into a rod of purest gold [infallible] , taken from out the endless treasure houses in the Kingdom of the Lord. By this rod [of the Covenant of gold] will the people be trained.” (‘Abdu'l-Baha, Selections, pp. 166-167)

So we have it that the rod of wood (Davidic kingship – a genealogy of growth and reproduction) is united with the rod of iron (extracted from ore through an intellectual process – the elected body of believers that are of magnetic potential) forms the infallible rod of Gold – the true Universal House of Justice of Baha’u’llah (head and body both). Such is the symbology of Ezekiel chapter 37 as well as that of ‘Abdu’l-Baha in explaining the true nature of the Covenant. Outward forms and symbols must be used to express abstract concepts.

So this Council in following the divine plan, and express text of the Covenant, follows the utmost precautions, according to Baha’i consultation, the 5 step process of Shoghi Effendi and the rules of Parliamentary procedure, to continually search for errors, and to remove these errors from our understanding and our decision making process. This also includes errors that influence and derogatorily affect society and individuals at large. This is similar to the methodology of what science does today. One thousand things may be shown to validate some proof, but one contradiction unravels that claim. Therefore, as scientists educated into the Covenant of Baha’u’llah, the members of the UHJ, as a college of divine physicians sent to heal this world, look for the contradictions, the anomaly, the careful measure of what doesn’t jibe or fit, and turning to God, these members are abjured to beseech Him, the Infinite Invisible Essence that created the universe and everything in it, and have faith – not a blind faith – but a faith based upon proof, that the incarnation of the logos, the thought of God in the Supreme Manifestation of Baha’u’llah is unfailingly assuring, that they shall be inspirited rightly by whatsoever He wisheth, and thus the current flow of divine guidance, over all matters of state (8th Ishraq) shall be continued to be given from God Himself unto men - not from the guardian/president, nor by fallible men and women on this Council, but from the Infallible Source of Reality – fallible men and women guided to righteousness by the infallible and unerring guidance of God.

“It is incumbent upon the Trustees of the House of Justice [head and body both] to take counsel together regarding those things which have not outwardly been revealed in the Book, and to enforce that which is agreeable to them. God will verily inspire them with whatsoever He willeth, and He, verily, is the Provider, the Omniscient.” (Baha'u'llah, Tablets, p. 68)

May our ever-advancing knowledge and understanding progress in the world of perfection, from perfection to ever-increasing perfection, and may we be protected from the arrogance of error, the onslaught of the insincere and unfaithful, and from others that have claimed to be “Baha’i” but are not, and have arrogated to themselves the powers and stations that He Himself declared is even above His own station, as well as above that of God Himself, in the prophetical Tablet of the Holy Mariner, in which the “burning meteor” shall drive them out!

“They have desired to ascend unto that state which the Lord hath ordained to be above their stations… Whereupon the burning meteor cast them out from them that abide in the Kingdom of His Presence, Glorified be my Lord, the All-Glorious!

“And they heard the Voice of Grandeur raised from behind the unseen pavilion upon the Height of Glory:… ‘O guardian angels! Return them to their abode in the world below… Inasmuch as they have purposed to rise to that sphere which the wings of the celestial dove have never attained’; Glorified be my Lord, the All-Glorious!” (Baha’u’llah, Tablet of the Holy Mariner)

Friends! One of the reasons for this current state of affairs throughout the Baha’i world today (sans-Guardian by majority and to some extent the other of the 7 Rites http://www.uhj. net/bahai- faith-history. html) is that under the direction of Ruhiyyih Khanum and the “Hands” their puppet headless “UHJ” was expressly directed by them to allow the masses of the people to come into their “fold” without being converted or even informed to the least to the provisions of the Holy Covenant of Baha’u’llah (Kitab-i-Ahd) and the sacred Will and Testament of ‘Abdu’l-Baha.

Ruhiyyih Khanum, in her own words confesses that she counted on the masses being attracted to the 12 Principles of the Baha’i Faith, such as the Oneness of Humanity and World Unity, along with being absolutely ignorant of the Covenant and without ever receiving even one glimpse of the texts of the Covenant or ever even seeing the document of the Will and Testament of ‘Abdu’l-Baha. Innumerable stories from uncountable dissenters/survivor s from that Violating Headless “UHJ” and false covenant-breaking Organization testify to this perfidy of the corrupt “Hands” led by Ruhiyyih Khanum. Thus after 1960, especially in the county of India, mass amounts of spiritually oriented people came into the sans-Guardian Baha’i fold, never even suspecting that Ruhiyyih and the group had murdered Shoghi Effendi in London in 1957 and hijacked the Baha’i world center for their own empowerment and aggrandizement.

From a published talk of Ruhiyyih Khanum in 1964 entitled “Simultaneous Process of Expansion and Consolidation” (see below) sent to me recently by one of the loyal friends with comments and clarifications in brackets, Ruhiyyih Khanum outlines her scheme to allow for the masses to come in without conversion to the Covenant of Baha’u’llah and without reading or even being informed to the slightest of the Will and Testament of ‘Abdu’l-Baha which is the CHARTER of the Kingdom (World Order of Baha’u’llah (WOB), p. 144) and thus rejecting the true UHJ with the Davidic King as its president that Shoghi Effendi himself set up, within his own lifetime (W&T, p. 12) on January 9, 1951 with the aghsan-son of ‘Abdu’l-Baha as its first president, the “sacred head and irremovable member for life of that body” (W&T, p. 14) who was succeeded by his son, the grandson of ‘Abdu’l-Baha; and now myself as the first great grandson of ‘Abdu’l-Baha.

Thus the masses of people had the wool pulled over their eyes, just as Ruhiyyih Khanum anticipated, while at the same time, she also conjured to allow for the rise of a new “pseudo – intellectual satanic elite”, which she called the “cream” that was to rise to the top, who then upon being confronted with her Violation of the Covenant would sell their souls for earthly rewards and incentives to become the loyal new “clergy class” enforcers of oppression of the theology of the Violation of the “Hands”.
Others of those ranks seeing the corruption – but for whatever reasons refusing to go along with it – would be as easily marginalized and expelled from her main fold of the “Hand’s-Faith” as Ruhiyyih and her fellow “Hands” were able to marginalize and expel the adopted aghsan-son of ‘Abdu’l-Baha from out of their midst in the switcheroo of labeling those who were firm in the Covenant as “Covenant-breakers” and have the masses shun the legitimate and legally appointed aghsan successorship as well as the true UHJ of Baha’u’llah (www.UHJ.net) established and active in the world today!!!

As their scheme worked so well – to have the masses (who were already Baha’i prior to the passing of Shoghi Effendi) shun the aghsan-son of ‘Abdu’l-Baha and his loyal supporters, the Baha’is that remained firm under the provisions of the Covenant (see www.entrybytroops. org for more) – they figured it would be even easier to trick the unsuspecting and the unawares of their “new converts”. But now that 40 years time has passed on by, they have been proven to be wrong. For those she put down as “unsuspecting dupes” raised their children under her Violation, and their children have read the Will and Testament of ‘Abdu’l-Baha, searched BUPC.org and UHJ.net, see the genealogy of Baha’u’llah back to King David of the throne-line of Kings, and having heard the piper at the gates of dawn, have come back unto God, and accepted the true UHJ with the Davidic King as its president by which we are all able to recognize the true Universal House of Justice of Baha’u’llah from fakes, frauds, and imitations, and thus bring peace through justice to the world.

They, having possession of the material Baha’i properties and original physical writings, were arrogant in their hi-jacking – even as Muhammad-Ali and his party of “loyal Baha’is” (see “Master’s Last Tablet to America” attached) held the keys to Bahji and stole all the original writings of Baha’u’llah away from ‘Abdu’l-Baha that were kept in two sealed trunks left to the Master by Baha’u’llah Himself. So now also, these ones – Ruhiyyih and the Hands and those who followed them – were able for a short while, to repeat the violation of Yahya and Muhammad-Ali and temporarily gain the allegiance and support of the unsuspecting masses, and cull out a corrupt theologian clergy class die-hard loyal to their violation centered in Haifa. Those “literati” that wouldn’t go along with their scheme were expelled, forced to resign, or simply “lump it”, or for other reasons leave the group, thus decapitating the Baha’i world of the academia Shoghi Effendi was attempting to raise up for Baha’i Studies within his own lifetime. Only an elect few of which, due to their own personal experience, are gifted by God to be able to consort with the living Guardian in person, or any of those who remain firm in the Covenant today. Thus, the poison of violation, thwarting the rest from association, communion and fellowship – cutting them off from the key information they need to complete their personal work.

Today the majority of “true Baha’is” loyal to the current living Davidic King and the true UHJ (www.UHJ.net) have rudely awakened to find themselves trapped within the meshes of their violating society which spans the globe. Only slowly yet surely, like the little leaven that leavens the whole lump, have they been able to move forward and succeed and find their fellow staunch supporters in the Covenant at this time, like those trapped in a German Concentration Camp in World War II, they are forced to speak with careful wisdom in following the instructions of ‘Abdu’l-Baha in His will, in order not to jeopardize their own living situation, by calling attention of the slave masters and boards of protection, that in the similitude of J.R.R. Tolken were designed to turn the pure of heart “elves of light” into twisted orcs, unable to re-enter the light of day.

“Caution and prudence, however, must be observed even as recorded in the Book. The veil must in no wise be suddenly rent asunder.” (W&T, p. 25)

Thus in the last 9 years, since the 9-11 event, which we accurately predicted, and the projection of the true successorship named in the Covenant and the Will and Testament of ‘Abdu’l-Baha, the people have been able to roll back the violation, through re-dedicating themselves to every single provision of the Will and Testament of ‘Abdu’l-Baha; and, therefore God Himself, through the power of the Holy Spirit channeled through the instrumentality of the Covenant today, has allowed for pure souls to find one another and to be in congregation once again, from communities all throughout the world via the promulgation of the world wide web, which has allowed this phenomenon to transpire (take place), in “the twinkling of an eye”.

The real situation is not the vastness of the numbers of those under the provisions of the Covenant today, the 144,000, but in fact their minority relationship to that of the Mainstream worldwide population under the spell of Ruhiyyih Khanum and the violation of the “Hands.” One hundred and forty-four thousand (144,000) compared to 6 to 10 million worldwide, is only a large enough number that if all these were to be outed and exposed, would result in their immediate personal destruction of life and livelihood; and for what useful end and for what purpose? The faithful have already been attacked and/or jailed in America, India, and in Syria and seen threats, violence and in certain cases actual physical harm. I myself was once forced to escape being abducted into a moving vehicle in South Dakota by the followers of Ruhiyyih Khanum and the “Hands”, and at another time, had to appear in Court to help free several of the Baha’is under the Covenant who had been wrongly jailed in Chicago by these raving fanatics, patrolling the temple at Wilmette at the US Baha’i center. When this was about to be exposed and published in the Chicago Tribune, and Sun Times, they relented; and, finally they sent messengers from Haifa, and “all charges were dropped” and the friends were released from jail. One of them was arrested while praying in silent prayer in the Temple in Wilmette, the day before his wedding, and for no other cause at all other than being recognized by those marauding and usurping “thugs” as a loyal support of the Will and Testament of ‘Abdu’l-Baha!

Such are the countless stories of psychosis and insanity in that group; of whom a certain ilk craves power and the secrets of “alchemy” and other “secret knowledge,” like weird black conjurers, hidden in ivory palaces and towers, making secret pacts amongst themselves and alliances with others, just as did the dregs of Karim Kahn (Iqan, p. 190) and his ilk of pretenders of the hijacked Shaykhi movement, that persecuted both the Bab and Baha’u’llah as well as the faithful, the mild and the sincerely true of heart, that used their intellects to investigate first hand and not fall for the hearsay of secondary accounts of others. These are they who are that new race of human being of whom ‘Abdu’l-Baha states, “the slander of the slanderer effecteth not!” (W&T, p. 3). Thus through the TEST of God, the sheep are parted from the goats, even as the Red Sea parted from before the positive power of Moses, like negative magnets that repel, the negative fleeing from the positive pole of God, the cynosure upon which the entire world revolves.

First hand accounts of actions such as these, as well as the covenant-breaking “NSA” in India recently busted for espionage, makes us wonder the fate of individuals in the spotlight such as David Kelly in the UK? Thus, through oppression, and other means, they think they have been successful in violation, like Omar, in scattering “the gathering of the people of Baha” (W&T, p. 12) but in reality and in actuality they have failed, and God’s Cause has prevailed, and the fortunes today have been reversed, praise be unto God, the Lord of All the Worlds!.

Therefore, the only cure for this malady is for these isolated groups and individuals, many of whom do not know the actual identity of the others outside their own local comminutes, to sort through their communities one member at a time, finding those who are pure of heart and firm in the covenant, and also marking those who are firm in the violation to be avoided in their personal teaching efforts. Why should those firm in the Covenant be forced to confide with those who are firm in the violation, and thus open themselves up for attack? Thus, ‘Abdu’l-Baha has said shun them! Avoid them! In other words, do not confide in them. They are not to be trusted! For they will poison all the others against you, the active teachers and guides, if they can. The utmost caution must be used at this time in gathering the faithful from out the violators. Surround yourselves with the faithful, follow the Hidden Words, avoid these ungodly politicos, raised up to be oppressors of the seat of violation, which sits in the abomination of desolation upon the Holy Mountain, prophesied by Baha’u’llah Himself, to be burned with fire and destroyed.

“O FRIEND! In the garden of thy heart plant naught but the rose of love, and from the nightingale of affection and desire loosen not thy hold. Treasure the companionship of the righteous and eschew all fellowship with the ungodly.” (Baha'u'llah, Persian Hidden Words #3)

“A thousand times” he has said, “shun their company.” (See “Master’s Last Tablet to America” attached). Jesus has said, “You shall know them by their fruits!” Therefore be sagacious in your personal judgement. Be not rash to judge, but be prudent and wise in your work, for this work is the work of God, the work of Building His Temple (Haykal), of which we are all living stones (1 Peter). You must test the spirits to see which is true, surround yourselves with those who are faithful, and avoid controversy and shun discord with those loyal to the violation and the violation theology of the “Hands.” Leave them unto God, for He alone may be able to restore them to light and life!

Not everyone in that community is of the violation. “Say not to every one who meeteth you with a greeting, ‘Thou art not a believer’” (Q4:94 Rodwell’s). Many of the pure in heart are isolated and trapped as we once were when we rudely awoke and realized their “UHJ” has no head!! That they have no executive, therefore they are the covenant-breakers! (W&T. p, 15).

Therefore like sagacious judges, who in future may be seated on the elected UHJ, both male and female, these loyal men and women firm in the covenant today, that find themselves trapped with that covenant-breaking administration, must not lose their faith in God, must not forget the truth of the mission of Baha’u’llah, the Davidic King of Kings, but must use the utmost wisdom and the utmost caution! It is left to you who are amongst them, to distinguish, as a judge distinguishes, who is and who is not loyal in that violation, in your own personal work. You must see the truth with your own eye, and avoid those who are covenant-breakers in your midst, loyal to the arch violators, versus those who are pure of heart, oppressed and yearning for the freedom that can only come through accepting God, and the living Davidic King that shows the way to the true UHJ of Baha’u’llah (www.UHJ.net) active in the world today.

Will God come down from heaven and do this for you? No. Certainly not. He has given you the intellect to use criteria of the Will and Testament, and the guidance of the Hidden Words, and now you -- each and everyone one of us as an individual -- must implement that the way you understand it. “The true station which every Baha’i can attain is that of the Old Testament prophet!” Therefore prophesy! Teach! (W&T, p. 10). The violators amongst you will flee, and the faithful will hear the call of the voice of their Lord, the Call of God Himself in this Great and Terrible Day in which we live! Prophecy! Teach! (W&T, p. 10). This is the commandment of God. This is the call of God. This is the word of the Lord! This is the commandment of Baha’u’llah. This is the commandment of the Master ‘Abdu’l-Baha. Prophesy! Teach! (W&T, p. 10). Beware! Beware! There are covenant-breakers amongst you. Prophesy! Teach! (W&T, p. 10). Hear the word of the Lord! They have no EXECUTIVE (Will and Testament, page 15). They are the COVENANT-BREAKERS!

The way your newly born community of the Covenant agrees, you are to govern yourselves, rightly and with firm resolve, to uphold the Truth in your own local and national area, with those defined borders and that protection of jurisdiction within your precinct, province, and locale. The sovereignty of God, the authority of heaven, has been given unto you the free people under the provisions of the Covenant in this Day of the great democratic-monarchy (Kingdom) of God on earth as it is in heaven. We are no longer to be called “slaves,” but friends, for the Master does not inform the “slave” of what he does, but his friends are taken into confidence, Christ has said this very saying in the Gospel, as a guidance for us today and for tomorrow.

Before long they, the true and loyal Baha’is firm in the Covenant and knowledgeable in the Testament, will be the majority Baha’is in every country, they will control the material property of their nations concerning the Baha’i Temples and the Baha’i Centers, and they will be freed from the bonds of the bogus headless “UHJ” in Haifa, and will be outwardly able to proclaim their full allegiance – bodily – as a single and independent people of their nation aligned to the true UHJ (www.UHJ.net) located now in the Rocky Mountains of the USA.

When that day comes – and come it shall, faster than lightning from the East unto the West – they will remove the voting rights of every single violator of the real and actual Covenant – those who oppose the true UHJ (head and body both) within their nations and thus purge and purify their national administration from those faithless, insincere, political intriguers, who have used their positions in the national Baha’i administration under the violation of Ruhiyyih Khanum and the “Hands” for espionage and personal aggrandizement. They will have full authority and power and jurisdiction within their entire National boundaries, and this will be upheld by the National secular government of their Nation States upon which they are established that shall protect their rights and freedoms from the Violators in Haifa. For when the Hands broke the covenant in 1960, they annulled the agreement that the NSA’s had with the International Center at the seat of Violation and thus the NSA’s and national populations by law do not have to obey, follow and have anything to do with the Covenant-breakers. For the “Hands” by their own violation of the Will and Testament of ‘Abdu’l-Baha nullified their contracts with the NSA’s throughout all the world, who are even now seceding one by one from that state of affairs, and to avoid the onslaught of the calamity that is coming down upon them as ordained by God in all the books and epistles sent out amongst the peoples of the world.

They are thus free by the law of God and free by the law of man, for their constitutions and national charters state they are to be allied only with the true “UHJ” and that “Universal House of Justice” is defined in the Will and Testament of ‘Abdu’l-Baha, a legal document probated in the British Mandate Courts, “THE CHARTER” of the Baha’i faith, (See WOB, p. 144) to be the one singled out with the aghsan-son, the Davidic King as its president. Thus, their charters are in force in the nations, in the US, the UK, France and Russia, and those such as India, only by the UHJ that is located in the Rocky Mountains of the USA and not with pretenders such as the false headless bogus “UHJ” in Haifa Israel that is foretold to be obliterated in the onslaught prophesied to come.

The majority of the people – Baha’u’llah has prophesied – united as one single “burning meteor”, shall drive the violators off of Mount Carmel. After the nations have abandoned that false “UHJ” and when the free Baha’i people have successfully retaken the majority position within their respective nations, the Covenant-breaking flag shall be pulled down, once and forevermore, even in Israel itself, because the surviving Jewish Nation of Israel, shall, likewise have fully accepted the living Davidic king (Jewish), who is not only the head of the true UHJ of Baha’u’llah, but is the promised personage they have awaited that is to lead them to King-Messiah, fulfilled in that Davidic King of Kings, whose name is Baha’u’llah! A physical meteor is also due.

Truth be told, the majority of the members who are active in the US as Covenant-breakers, today, is only about 3000 adults nationwide. The numbers in the UK, France and Russia is even less. Everyday we received more letters of allegiance proclaiming their acceptance of the true UHJ (www.UHJ.net), but who trapped in local community situations do so only in the utmost privacy and confidence. Those who pride themselves in the majority of oppressors shall soon fade. Soon, like all men, their bones shall be beaten to dust in their graves, and the next generation of Baha’i peoples, already loyal to the Covenant, and poised to replace them on the earthly plain, as decreed by the wisdom of God that they should be removed forever from the earth, that is loyal faithful and true to the true UHJ (www.UHJ.net) and the living Davidic King, the great grandson of ‘Abdu’l-Baha, will be the heir to their respective countries and will reverse the tide of violation that they themselves grew up within.

Has this not happened with slavery in the US? And civil rights? Did not the railway workers get the 8-hour day and the 40-hour week? And women now have the right to vote? So the majority in the US has changed from bigotry and oppression to acceptance and equality on many important fronts. The next battle to be waged, by the Baha’is and all people, ‘Abdu’l-Baha tells us, is the battle against economic slavery, which we will win as the world moves through this next world war and current catastrophe that is upon us now. Thus those who are firm in the Covenant, that the “Hands” called Covenant-breakers, shall be reunited with their fellows, even as this is happening now, that were trapped within the halls of violation. This is wood and iron coming together to form a rod of gold, as prophesied of in the Divine Book, and thus no man may rend asunder that which God hath purposed to join together!
Meanwhile, we shall cite two examples, from out all the activity throughout the world that is turning the tide today. Throughout Europe, in Russia, France and the United Kingdom of Britain, the light of the truth of the Baha’i Covenant is again shining and the banner of the Davidic Kingship, the presidency of the true UHJ of Baha’u’llah, has been firmly planted and again raised and hoisted aloft – flying high! Throughout the Muslim world, in Syria, Lebanon, Yemen, Iraq, Iran and the United Arab Emirates, the true believers have found themselves dug in to fortified trenches on the front line of teaching from which God Himself will not allow them to be taken! In South America, and in Africa, the banner of the Covenant of the Davidic Kingship, the aghsan-sons of Baha’u’llah and ‘Abdu’l-Baha is raised aloft and firmly established. Japan and China and the Far East are no exception in this day. In North America, Canada and the Philippines, the vibration of light and love of the true UHJ, the channel of grace and benevolence and knowledge and education for all (WOB, p. 9, 19) is shining firm and resplendent, like the morning sun on the first days of the new divine spring! Thus with all this activity and the tide turning, we see the activity of God that no human being can thwart!

In India, for example, that current “NSA” was struck by the Divine Providence of God at a time when it was persecuting severely the fledgling community of Baha’is under the provisions of the Covenant through that sub-continent and long held spiritual bastion of truth and purity. When Lo! Busted for espionage in the papers, in a national scandal, they were shook down to the core, and so distracted in their own marasmus of corruption, turned their attention away from those who teach this true faith and continually guide the people back under the provisions of the Covenant in that Country.

Now material wealth and power are as important to God and to the faithful as a speck of dust in the black of the eye of an ant. But in order to show the grandeur and the power and the greatness of God, we build edifices unto Him, and perform extraordinary feats in his name, to show the solidarity of divine salvation in opposition to materialism and that of the Covenant-breaker and the usurper. This victory will belong to God and unto Him alone! Only when we are so detached from all material and worldly affairs will this sublimity arise as the sun at high noon, and the victory of those who have remained firm will be seen throughout all the regions of the world. So Baha’u’llah has revealed:

“Rejoicest thou in that thou rulest a span of earth, when the whole world, in the estimation of the people of Baha, is worth as much as the black in the eye of a dead ant? Abandon it unto such as have set their affections upon it, and turn thou unto Him Who is the Desire of the world.”(Baha'u'llah, Epistle to the Son of the Wolf, p. 124-125)

What will all the worldly do when the entire India sub-continent takes back, one soul by one soul at a time, until by majority consensus and vote, their National governing body, which holds title to the temple they built unknowingly in league with the Covenant-breakers in Haifa, and shines forth as one of the first to secede as one soul in many bodies officially and publicly from the center of violation as a nation state from the Covenant-breakers in Haifa!

Thus this power of the Covenant alone, continued in the throne-line of king David which is the executive branch of the true UHJ of Baha’u’llah (www.UHJ.net) can transform satanic strength into heavenly power, for man alone is the greatest talisman, and the power of God is unleashed from out the souls of the faithful who have turned, joyfully and elated, in contrition, humility and servitude unto the Lord of All the Worlds, out of devotion, love and ecstatic bliss, free from the dross of this darksome and material realm.

“Perplexing and difficult as this may appear, the still greater task of converting satanic strength into heavenly power is one that We have been empowered to accomplish. The Force capable of such a transformation transcendeth the potency of the Elixir itself. The Word of God, alone, can claim the distinction of being endowed with the capacity required for so great and far-reaching a change.” (Baha'u'llah, Gleanings, p. 200)

When the Hands broke the Covenant in 1957 and set up that bogus UHJ in 1963, they invalidated any legal obligations that any of the NSA’s had to their national property, money, funds, people (human souls), and national communities. Thus in separating themselves from the Empire of Tyranny of the Hands, (first one soul at a time and later through public national declaration) these “NSA’s” set up originally by Shoghi Effendi, will evolve to the next level as National Baha’i Councils – NBC’s – separate in power and authority from the control of the Haifa, the Hand’s bogus UHJ. This is to happen in the next phase of evolution of the natural order, for the Kingdom of God, ‘Abdu’l-Baha tells us is a Federal system, where the federal states are to rule and govern themselves within their own jurisdiction. This is to come about precisely BECAUSE God allowed Ruhiyyih Khanum and the “Hands” to violate, thus forcing the nation states to rise up against them and their oppression and injustice, in the name of the provisions of the Will and Testament of ‘Abdu’l-Baha, their only recourse to freedom, for their spiritual and social freedom, and thus win their wings as sovereign nation states, sovereign National Baha’i Councils with full self-governing authority and national and ethnic autonomy. Then these, now vetted for the occasion, shall declare their covenant with the true UHJ (body and head both) retaining their sovereignty and thus the real and just Federal System of the Kingdom of God on earth as it is in heaven will have been organically generated by the One Wise Lord. See! See how great God is! What man has planned for evil God has planned for good so that many people could be saved!

They, these NBC’s, will be empowered to expel from their ranks all violators and remove entirely all their voting rights in their nations, without question or review, their decisions being final during the epoch of transition from apostasy to righteousness, which Baha’u’llah Himself has prophesied in no less explicit terms than the “mystery of the reversal of the sign of the sovereign”.

Thus shall the nations be purified and purged, and the National Baha’i communities free from those actual violators, who are anti- the living Davidic king, anti- the throne line of kind David of the Baha’i world order. As Christ refers to the throne-line of king David that the aghsan-son of King David through Baha’u’llah and ‘Abdu’l-Baha are alone qualified to be seated as presidents of the true UHJ. (W&T, p. 15). Therefore, these Covenant-breakers who remain against the Davidic King are not only Covenant-breakers but are antichrist. The national councils – nascent national teaching committees – will deal with this themselves from the ruckus of the local community LSA’s, and thus as they purify themselves it is written:

“Behold the kingdoms of this world [the nation-states – national Baha’i councils former NSA’s] have become the kingdoms of our Lord and of his Christ.”

This power, this authorization and this command comes NOW at this time Ridvan 2010, the year 19, from the true UHJ via the current living Davidic King, conferring (for the exigencies of the time being, during this current phase of the Epoch of the Reversal), all power within the boundaries of their Nation States, to declare who is or is not a violator of the Covenant within those countries, based on the criteria of loyalty to the “sign of God” (W&T, p. 11), the person of the living Davidic King, by which we recognize the true UHJ (head and body both) from fakes frauds and imitations. Thus, as a favor from God, have the nations themselves now been empowered to make themselves right with God and loyal to the living throne of David in this day today and everyday.

In the future, when the majority is assembled in those states to make this move, they will find that they have no legal obligation to the “Hands” headless “UHJ” in any way, a headless monster that exists thousands of miles from their nation states, a headless monster – located on Golem Street, to which if anyone remains loyal is Covenant-breaker and is to be expelled from the Baha’i Administration of those nations – in order to purify ourselves away from this spirit of corruption that has completely eroded the spiritual solidarity of the free Baha’i people throughout the entire globe. This process is already deep underway in the two key spots of both the United States and Iran , Persia . It is fast spreading through the communities in the European core counterparts, France, Russia, and the UK. It is no coincidence that these are the nation-states mentioned and indicated especially by Baha’u’llah in His accompanying Tablets of the Surat’ul-Haykal, the Surah of the Temple , which we are now building in its fullest degree at this time! Other nation states are not far behind. The landslide is due, and the accompanying physical calamity of the Great Earthquake, the meteor strike, and the other winds of destruction are a catalyst to help wake up the majority of the people of the world within the Jewish, Christian, and Islamic folds, as well as those of Buddhism, Hinduism and the native cultures of all peoples.

There shall be no freedom, no safe haven, no peace, no serenity, no security and no salvation except within the framework, the shield, the security the everlasting shelter of all the provisions of the sacred Will and Testament of ‘Abdu’l-Baha, meaning the Ark of Salvation of the true UHJ which is recognized by its irremovable appointed member, the living Davidic King of that day. All those that do not seek the shelter of that BRANCH of God (Zech. 3:8 KJV) will find themselves struck by a thermonuclear “heat” unbearable in its intensity and unyielding in its incumbent retributive force.

“A tempest, unprecedented in its violence, unpredictable in its course, catastrophic in its immediate effects, unimaginably glorious in its ultimate consequences, is at present sweeping the face of the earth. Its driving power is remorselessly gaining in range and momentum. Its cleansing force, however much undetected, is increasing with every passing day. Humanity, gripped in the clutches of its devastating power, is smitten by the evidences of its resistless fury. It can neither perceive its origin, nor probe its significance, nor discern its outcome. Bewildered, agonized and helpless, it watches this great and mighty wind of God invading the remotest and fairest regions of the earth, rocking its foundations, deranging its equilibrium, sundering its nations, disrupting the homes of its peoples, wasting its cities, driving into exile its kings, pulling down its bulwarks, uprooting its institutions, dimming its light, and harrowing up the souls of its inhabitants.”

“‘The time for the destruction of the world and its people,’ Baha’u’llah’s prophetic pen has proclaimed, ‘hath arrived.’ ‘The hour is approaching,’ He specifically affirms, ‘when the most great convulsion will have appeared.’ ‘The promised day is come, the day when tormenting trials will have surged above your heads, and beneath your feet, saying: “Taste ye what your hands have wrought!”’ ‘Soon shall the blasts of His chastisement beat upon you, and the dust of hell enshroud you.’” (Shoghi Effendi, The Promised Day is Come, p. 3)

As a mercy and favor from God, once expelled from the Fold by those NSA’s turned NBC’s, in the reversal that is to take place, one by one these may with contrition and humble hearts appeal their cases to the true UHJ with the living Davidic King as its head. But until that process of appeal is concluded, the absolute ruling of the democratic and republican body of the National Baha’i Councils shall stand and all shall shun and avoid entirely those expelled as violators within their nations – those who during the Epoch of Reversal remained loyal to the false UHJ and theology of the “Hands” and Ruhiyyih within their countries, shall be permanently expelled from the congregation of the people locally and nationally and “in no wise accept ANY excuse from them”:

“So soon as they find anyone beginning to oppose and protest against the Guardian of the Cause of God [president and executive of the UHJ], cast him out from the congregation of the people of Baha and in no wise accept any excuse from him. How often hath grievous error been disguised in the garb of truth, that it might sow the seeds of doubt in the hearts of men!” (W&T, p. 12)

Thus were Ruhiyyih Khanum and the “hands” appointed to protect the aghsan-son of ‘Abdu’l-Baha, the living Davidic King, instead they were the ones (the “Hands”) that attacked opposed and protested against him!

“O friends! The Hands of the Cause of God must be nominated and appointed by the Guardian of the Cause of God. All must be under his shadow and obey his command. Should any, within or without the company of the Hands of the Cause of God disobey and seek division, the wrath of God and His vengeance will be upon him, for he will have caused a breach in the true Faith of God.” (W&T, p. 12-13)

Thus Ruhiyyih Khanum and the “Hands” in their rejection of Mason Remey Aghsan (1957-1974), Pepe, Aghsan (1974-1994) and myself, (1994-current) , have indeed caused “a breach in the True Faith of God” as prophesied by ‘Abdu’l-Baha in His Will as a necessary evil, “iniquity must come, but woe betide them by whom its comes” Ruhiyyih Khanum and the other Hands.

Do not shun one another; do not shun the fellow believers in this Cause who are loyal to the true UHJ and the living Davidic King! But beware! Beware for Covenant-breakers are amongst you! Find out who they are. Use your intellects to apply the criteria of the will and avoid them. You must make this call with your own eyes and your own intellects! You are the judges of the local Baha’i councils. You are judges of the national Baha’i bodies. You are the trustees of Baha, within your nations, within your cities, within your villages, within your countries, counties and regions! Gather the faithful under the shadow of God! Shun the arch-violators and their minions! And re-unite one with another in fellowship and communion with God with the living Davidic King and your fellow believers, fellow servants, even as your brothers and sisters are already doing and have done, in these days of God!

SENT TO THE GUARDIAN AND COUNCIL OF THE UHJ VIA E-MAIL:

From a published talk of Ruhiyyih Khanum in 1964 entitled
“Simultaneous Process of Expansion and Consolidation”

Here are the very words Ruhiyyih Khanum [with commentary and clarifications in brackets] designed and engineered in their scheme to bring in the “ignorant” masses, and create a system of incentivized corruption which the “cream”, as she put it, would rise to the top, who like a Nazi Gestapo would then be poised to repress all the rest of the people:

“In 1964 Hand of the Cause Ruhiyyih Khanum spent several months in India and in the nearby countries of Ceylon, Nepal and Sikkim. While in India she participated extensively in the mass teaching [hijacking] program being carried on in the villages in all parts of that land. The following comments written on her return to the Holy Land give much food for thought among all the Baha'is of the world who wish to see their beloved Faith grow and expand among the multitudes not yet touched by the Word of Baha'u'llah. She states:

“The entire Baha'i world is watching the progress being made in India. Her teaching activities and the remarkable rate of increase in the numbers of believers in that country during the last five years are the envy and admiration of her sister communities. But I feel a word of advice is in order here…

“How can one do two entirely contradictory things at the same time [such as serve God and mammon]; require of people that they be mature, understanding, well-informed Baha'is BEFORE letting them into the Faith, [thus she made sure they were NOT WELL INFORMED of the Will and Testament and that the Davidic King MUST be the president of the true UHJ to recognize the true UHJ from fakes, frauds and imitations!] , and; at the same time, have enough Baha'is inside it to put into effect this great, dynamic, [Hijacked and HEADLESS] Order of Baha'u'llah? It is like asking that kindergarten children should first sit for entrance examinations to the university before they can begin their primary education! [Thus she saw the masses as stupid dupes, like “kindergarten- children” – i.e. taking candy from a baby!] [By “university education” she means being indoctrinated to defending and supporting the headless monster UHJ without a guardian as its president, of which she set up a program of incentivized corruption, for personal prestige, power and social and political clout all in opposition to God, the same things and temptations the devil and Satan carroted Jesus with on the mountain for 40 days and 40 nights]. She says:

“Let the people come in. The law of averages decrees that everything has a scale of percentages. Every milk has its percentage of cream; high or low, it is there.” For every hundred new [kindergarten- dupe] “Baha'is” there is invariably going to be a percentage of people of great capacity, both intellectually and spiritually [willing to sell out their country, peoples and souls to join-up with the Violation of Ruhiyyih Khanum and the “Hands” and become the repressive overlords of the masses, a new clergy class, indoctrinating all of them to shun Neal Chase, the living Davidic King and the great grandson of ‘Abdu’l-Baha]; this group [the new Gestapo – clergy oppressors] will take care of the increase in less mature [dupes] and understanding [fools], but no less sincere, souls [that is the pure of heart who are food for these “new” spiritual vampires unleashed upon the masses] who comprise the rest of the hundred [the pure in heart that we have come with our true UHJ to set free]. In other words you get your rank and file [the oppressed masses she thinks she can fool], your foot soldiers [toady lackeys who do anything she says], as well as your officers [repressive overlords of violation in seats of authority and control], all together at the same time.

“[Don’t think about the Covenant and its provisions – don’t read the Will and Testament] Just teach. Trust [Ruhiyyih Khanum and the “Hands”]… and march on to conquer [the ignorant masses, the unsuspecting and the unawares], while there is still the opportunity to do so....

“Today there is an extraordinary receptivity [PT Barnum says: “A sucker born every minute”] in that part of the world [India] (and indeed, in many other lands, maybe more than we realize) to the [violation of the Hands and Ruhiyyih only masquerading as “Baha’i”]--like the soil waiting [for them, to plant the weeds of the devil], dry and breathless with longing, for the monsoon, for the rains that will generate life and bring forth the new crop [both tares and wheat grow together]. This is our opportunity, our challenge, our terrible responsibility. [She admits what she is doing is “terrible” for it is written: “Iniquity MUST come, but woe betide them by who it comes!”]

“For our own sakes, for the sake of [causing] suffering humanity, we cannot afford to fail in seizing this hour [as she “wrote she “seized the reigns” of the Cause] and exploiting it to the full. [Thus she is a self-confessed EXPLOITER]

"There are almost half a billion people in India [ripe for the picking who have not read one single word of the Will and Testament of ‘Abdu’l-Baha and who do not even know that the document exists, let alone that the Davidic King must be the president of the true UHJ to recognize the true UHJ from fakes frauds and imitations such as the one Ruhiyyih and the Hands set up in Haifa to fool and dupe the people into joining their violation], not to mention those in neighboring countries. Not hundreds, not thousands, but literally millions [of suckers born every minute who will even refuse to the read the Will and Testament AFTER it is showed to them later on and will always blindly follow Ruhiyyih Khanum and the Hands!] ready to accept [Ruhiyyih’s and the Hands glaring violation of the Covenant of] Baha'u'llah if you will only tell them He has come to them, for them [they will never even think to investigate for the true UHJ (www.UHJ.net) ], in this glorious new age in which we are [violating the Covenant]are [making an easy] living.”– Amatu’l-Baha Ruhiyyih Khanum.

99999

Friends! In contrast to this absolutely degenerate, appalling, and inexcusable plotting and scheming by Ruhiyyih Khanum and the Hands and those who followed them, the masses are being educated through the school of oppression and via the internet! They are finding their way back to the truth of the Covenant. Some instead of coming back under the Covenant, have broken away to form their own sects of “Baha’i” outside the provisions of the Covenant, but in time even many of these will realize the fruitlessness of their ways, outside the power of the Will and Testament of ‘Abdu’l-Baha, and write into www.UHJ.net and become united in the true power of the Covenant of love and light with the living Davidic King who is the chairmen of our true UHJ alive in the world today.

Then, the mysterious vehement confirming support from God via the Holy Spirit that animates us all, as one soul in many bodies, takes effect. In this elevated and supernatural state, yet while grounded here on earth, we are guided by God in our teaching efforts and connected and reunited one with another, as the true fold resurrects from the dead, and those of the violation amongst us, are, slowly but surely and methodically, singled out, marginalized and left to their own in the nether most gloom. Those who radiate firmness are attracted, and those who are against God, and the Will and Testament of ‘Abdu’l-Baha (see page 11) are repelled away as if by magic, like a fresh breeze blowing away a bad odor (the stink of violation), or the gentle ocean pulses tossing the foam away from our midst and out from our very lives, thoughts, and souls.

How loving, how kind and how gentle, how nurturing is Our God, the Lord of Mercy, the Lord of Love, the God of Light, the Gift of Truth, the God of Grace abounding!
“How great the blessedness that awaiteth the king who will arise to aid My Cause in My kingdom, who will detach himself from all else but Me! Such a king is numbered with the companions of the Crimson Ark – the Ark which God hath prepared for the people of Baha. All must glorify his name, must reverence his station, and aid him to unlock the cities with the keys of My Name, the omnipotent Protector of all that inhabit the visible and invisible kingdoms. Such a king is the very eye of mankind, the luminous ornament on the brow of creation, the fountainhead of blessings unto the whole world. Offer up, O people of Baha, your substance, nay your very lives, for his assistance.” (Baha'u'llah, Kitab-i-Aqdas, p. 50)

Friends, without a doubt, I am only a servant of the servants of God, a fellow believer with you, the companions of the Crimson Ark, in your midst. In these days, I have been singled out for ignominy in the world, because God chose me to preside over His UHJ, and thus willingly and happily endure a public teaching effort, lawsuits, both personal and financial destruction, all at the hands of the enemies of this Cause, of which I am but a pawn in the Hand of God, a ring He turns which ever way He pleases on His finger. The Bab and Baha’u’llah and the Manifestations of God, all else, regardless of their gifts and works – or lack thereof, are but servants in his path:

“His Holiness, the Exalted One (the Bab), is the Manifestation of the Unity and Oneness of God and the Forerunner of the Ancient Beauty. His Holiness the Abha Beauty (may my life be a sacrifice for His steadfast friends) is the Supreme Manifestation of God and the Dayspring of His Most Divine Essence. All others are servants unto Him and do His bidding.”(The Will and Testament of ‘Abdu’l-Baha, p. 19)

To this end, I close this Open Epistle to the Baha’i World directed especially toward the spiritually active and vibrant community in India at this time, with only two important citations of the hundreds and thousand of emails we receive in a continuous shimmering stream from all around the world. We choose these two excerpts, above all others, because of their important and inherent connection, as Shoghi Effendi has stated, whereas Persia is the “Cradle of the Faith”, the United States is the “Cradle of the Administration”, and thus the Faith with its twin Manifestations has come out of Persia, a common faith that we all share, and the Administration has come, not out of Haifa, but out of America, with the Twin establishers, Dr. Leland Jensen, and myself, Neal Chase, as prophesied and spoken of in the scripture as “Joshua and Zerubbabel”, who lay the foundation stone of the second Temple, the second IBC/UHJ” which is the true UHJ, the current World Order of Baha’u’llah now born and active in the world today in the Golden Century of this now Golden Age of the Faith of Baha’u’llah begun on January 1, 2001 AD: the mystery of the reversal of the sign of the sovereign “ra’is” (W&T, p. 14).

Thus, to give an small example of what is now taking place throughout the entire Baha’i world, in every city, in every county, in every nation and in every clime, from one of the active centers in the United States, Cradle of the World Order of the true UHJ (out of innumerable active centers in the world at this time), we share these exemplary words:

Dear Aghsan and Council,

We wish you a lovely approaching 1st day of Ridvan! Our progress in the Baha'i community here in [[REDACTED]] has been steadily increasing for the past few weeks and soon an intensive growth program will begin, which we will participate in along with our elders and LSA members. As our allegiance is truly aligned with you, we wish to know how the Council feels as to our activities with the local Baha'is here outside of the Provisions of the Covenant… To the best of our abilities and capacity to walk a fine line of loving-kindness, tactfulness, genuineness, and understanding, we have tried to follow the Guardian's advice as to how our relationship with those who are sans-Guardian Baha'is should develop.

Allah'u'Abha' [[NAMES REDACTED]]

And from the ancient lands of Persia, Cradle of the Faith, we share these encouraging words – translated into English – from the descendants of one of the first and most ancient families of those who first accepted the call in Shiraz of the Bab and who have remained firm in the Covenant in their entirety from one generation to the next, accepting Baha’u’llah, of whom He covenanted to his son, ‘Abdu’l-Baha, of whom He covenanted to his son, Mason Remey, Aghsan, only son of ‘Abdu’l-Baha, of whom He covenanted to his only son Pepe Aghsan, grandson of ‘Abdu’l-Baha, of whom He covenanted to myself, Neal Chase, Aghsan, the only great grandson of ‘Abdu’l-Baha and the current UHJ (www.UHJ.net) active in the world today:

Subject: Declaration Form for Baha'is Under the Provisions of the Covenant
(http://www.bupc. org/declaration- form.html)

In checking this box, I acknowledge I have read Entry By Troops and I declare my belief in the Covenant of Baha'u'llah as delineated by ‘Abdu'l-Baha in his sacred Will and Testament and constituted by Shoghi Effendi as the first International Baha'i Council/Universal House of Justice (IBC/UHJ) which was embryonic and is now born into the world as the second International Baha'i Council/Universal House of Justice with the living Guardian as its head which will evolve into a World Court, and International Tribunal and then the Universal House of Justice (elected from National Houses of Justice) with the living Guardian as its president and irremovable member for life in all its stages. I recognize that infallibility has been conferred upon this House of Justice, in all its stages, through the Lesser Covenant of God and also upon the Establisher of the Baha’i Faith, Dr. Leland Jensen, through the Greater Covenant of God. I, moreover, give my fealty and loyalty to every single provision of the Master’s sacred Will and Testament of ‘Abdu’l-Baha, and in doing so, thereby, acknowledge and recognize the great grandson of ‘Abdu’l-Baha, Neal Chase ben Joseph Aghsan, as the current living president of the IBC/UHJ, and current living Guardian of the Baha’i Faith seated upon the throne of King David which is to last forever.

Dear Guardian,

Thank you for this useful website…

I am a part of Famous Baha’i Family called [[REDACTED]] , of which they are from [[names ancient Persian city]] as well as myself too.

My name is [[REDACTED]]… I came out of Iran in [[gives YEAR]] and, since then, went, back only once for [[REDACTED FOR PRIVACY]] due to my job in [[REDACTED]]… It was very sad and I was afraid very much.

Thank you for the link

Kind Regard

[[NAMES REDACTED FOR PRIVACY]]

So the Wall of Oppression of the Violation of the Hands is fallen, the faithful have come over the wall and under the provisions of the Covenant, too numerous to mention. They are all active in their respective areas, on fire with the light and love of God! From India to Africa, throughout Europe and America, to Asia and South and North America, the international community of the covenant, has survived the winds of violation, even as it shall survive the four winds of destruction to be unleashed from the great river Euphrates that flows through Iraq.

World Events propel this cause forward. No power of the violation of man can prevent it.

In fact, in every instant God has allowed and assisted the violators to oppose the Covenant and to attack the successorship for the specific reason to show that the successorship itself is able to defend itself against any and every onslaught. Thus does this Covenant stand firm and strong. Thus suffering and finally death of the body is a universal condition – without suffering the people would not learn to empathize with one another, and would not form the common bonds of affection and spiritual affiliation that are essential prerequisites of the everlasting felicity of the communion of the next world. Woe unto those who have remained aloof and insulated from suffering, who have caused suffering unto their fellows, and who have allowed their souls to callous like a scab torn from the heart of hate, whereas God has created all to be in love, knowledge and grace within the haven of His everlasting Kingdom.

With great resolve, happy intent and faces uplifted by the great momentum now filling the sails of our ship, at this time, this spring, this Divine Paradise, Ridvan 2010, the year 19 since the foundation of the IBC/UHJ was laid on January 9th, 1991; the year 19 since the Council took its first breath and had its first meeting on resurrection Sunday, 2 March, 1991; the year 19 since the Lamb opened the seventh seal and unfurled the banner of the Will and Testament of ‘Abdu’l-Baha in Ridvan of 1991; NOW the warm moist breezes of life propel this Cause and this people forward, from one adventure to the next, that none but the initiated, none but the cherished, none but the closely informed, the confidants of God, His servants and faithful lovers can or will ever be able to apprehend. On behalf of the Council, and the workers here at the International Center:

I remain yours, in El Abha,

Your servant,

The Guardian,

Neal.

Ruhiyyih Khanum

Ruhiyyih Khanum and those who followed her


The followers of Ruhiyyih Khanum after the great Violation in 1960 are Khanumist’s, The Covenant Breakers and the Card carrying members of the Fake UHJ.

I. The Mainstream Violation of Ruhiyyih Khanum and the Hands.

Friends! One of the reasons for this current state of affairs throughout the Baha’i world today (sans-Guardian by majority and to some extent the other of the 7 Rites http://www.uhj.net/bahai-faith-history.html) is that under the direction of Ruhiyyih Khanum and the “Hands” their puppet headless “UHJ” was expressly directed by them to allow the masses of the people to come into their “fold” without being converted or even informed to the least to the provisions of the Holy Covenant of Baha’u’llah (Kitab-i-Ahd) and the sacred Will and Testament of ‘Abdu’l-Baha.

Ruhiyyih Khanum, in her own words confesses that she counted on the masses being attracted to the 12 Principles of the Baha’i Faith, such as the Oneness of Humanity and World Unity, along with being absolutely ignorant of the Covenant and without ever receiving even one glimpse of the texts of the Covenant or ever even seeing the document of the Will and Testament of ‘Abdu’l-Baha. Innumerable stories from uncountable dissenters/survivor’s from that Violating Headless “UHJ” and false covenant-breaking Organization testify to this perfidy of the corrupt “Hands” led by Ruhiyyih Khanum. Thus after 1960, especially in the county of India, mass amounts of spiritually oriented people came into the sans-Guardian Baha’i fold, became Ruhhiyih Khanumist’s never even suspecting that Ruhiyyih and the group had murdered Shoghi Effendi in London in 1957 and hijacked the Baha’i world center for their own empowerment and aggrandizement.

From a published talk of Ruhiyyih Khanum in 1964 entitled “Simultaneous Process of Expansion and Consolidation” (see below) sent to me recently by one of the loyal friends with comments and clarifications in brackets, Ruhiyyih Khanum outlines her scheme to allow for the masses to come in without conversion to the Covenant of Baha’u’llah and without reading or even being informed to the slightest of the Will and Testament of ‘Abdu’l-Baha which is the CHARTER of the Kingdom (World Order of Baha’u’llah (WOB), p. 144) and thus rejecting the true UHJ with the Davidic King as its president that Shoghi Effendi himself set up, within his own lifetime (W&T, p. 12) on January 9, 1951 with the aghsan-son of ‘Abdu’l-Baha as its first president, the “sacred head and irremovable member for life of that body” (W&T, p. 14) who was succeeded by his son, the grandson of ‘Abdu’l-Baha; and now Mr. Neal Chase as the first great grandson of ‘Abdu’l-Baha.

Thus the masses of people had the wool pulled over their eyes, just as Ruhiyyih Khanum anticipated, while at the same time, she also conjured to allow for the rise of a new “pseudo – intellectual satanic elite”, which she called the “cream” that was to rise to the top, who then upon being confronted with her Violation of the Covenant would sell their souls for earthly rewards and incentives to become the loyal new “clergy class” enforcers of oppression of the theology of the Violation of the “Hands”.

Others of those ranks seeing the corruption – but for whatever reasons refusing to go along with it – would be as easily marginalized and expelled from her main fold of the “Hand’s-Faith” as Ruhiyyih and her fellow “Hands” were able to marginalize and expel the adopted aghsan-son of ‘Abdu’l-Baha from out of their midst in the switcheroo of labeling those who were firm in the Covenant as “Covenant-breakers” and have the masses shun the legitimate and legally appointed aghsan successorship as well as the true UHJ of Baha’u’llah (www.UHJ.net) established and active in the world today!!!

As their scheme worked so well – to have the masses (who were already Baha’i prior to the passing of Shoghi Effendi) shun the aghsan-son of ‘Abdu’l-Baha and his loyal supporters, the Baha’is that remained firm under the provisions of the Covenant (see www.entrybytroops. org for more) – they figured it would be even easier to trick the unsuspecting and the unawares of their “new converts”. But now that 40 years time has passed on by, they have been proven to be wrong. For those she put down as “unsuspecting dupes” raised their children under her Violation, and their children have read the Will and Testament of ‘Abdu’l-Baha, searched BUPC.org and UHJ.net, see the genealogy of Baha’u’llah back to King David of the throne-line of Kings, and having heard the piper at the gates of dawn, have come back unto God, and accepted the true UHJ with the Davidic King as its president by which we are all able to recognize the true Universal House of Justice of Baha’u’llah from fakes, frauds, and imitations, and thus bring peace through justice to the world.

These Khanumist’s, having possession of the material Baha’i properties and original physical writings, were arrogant in their hi-jacking – even as Muhammad-Ali and his party of “loyal Baha’is” (see “Master’s Last Tablet to America” attached) held the keys to Bahji and stole all the original writings of Baha’u’llah away from ‘Abdu’l-Baha that were kept in two sealed trunks left to the Master by Baha’u’llah Himself. So now also, these ones – Ruhiyyih and the Hands and those who followed them (Khanumist’s)– were able for a short while, to repeat the violation of Yahya and Muhammad-Ali and temporarily gain the allegiance and support of the unsuspecting masses, and cull out a corrupt theologian clergy class die-hard loyal to their violation centered in Haifa. Those “literati” that wouldn’t go along with their scheme were expelled, forced to resign, or simply “lump it”, or for other reasons leave the group, thus decapitating the Baha’i world of the academia Shoghi Effendi was attempting to raise up for Baha’i Studies within his own lifetime. Only an elect few of which, due to their own personal experience, are gifted by God to be able to consort with the living Guardian in person, or any of those who remain firm in the Covenant today. Thus, the poison of violation, thwarting the rest from association, communion and fellowship – cutting them off from the key information they need to complete their personal work.

Today the majority of “true Baha’is” loyal to the current living Davidic King and the true UHJ (www.UHJ.net) have rudely awakened to find themselves trapped within the meshes of their violating society which spans the globe. Only slowly yet surely, like the little leaven that leavens the whole lump, have they been able to move forward and succeed and find their fellow staunch supporters in the Covenant at this time, like those trapped in a German Concentration Camp in World War II, they are forced to speak with careful wisdom in following the instructions of ‘Abdu’l-Baha in His will, in order not to jeopardize their own living situation, by calling attention of the slave masters and boards of protection, that in the similitude of J.R.R. Tolken were designed to turn the pure of heart “elves of light” into twisted orcs, unable to re-enter the light of day.

Today there are about 144,000 Baha’is under the provisions of the Covenant working sincerely to carry forward the Message of Bahaullah in different parts of the world.

The faithful have already been attacked and/or jailed in America, India, and in Syria and seen threats, violence and in certain cases actual physical harm. The Present Guardian Mr. Neal Chase was once forced to escape being abducted into a moving vehicle in South Dakota by the followers of Ruhiyyih Khanum and the “Hands”, and at another time, had to appear in Court to help free several of the Baha’is under the Covenant who had been wrongly jailed in Chicago by these raving fanatics, patrolling the temple at Wilmette at the US Baha’i center. When this was about to be exposed and published in the Chicago Tribune, and Sun Times, they relented; and, finally they sent messengers from Haifa, and “all charges were dropped” and the friends were released from jail. One of them was arrested while praying in silent prayer in the Temple in Wilmette, the day before his wedding, and for no other cause at all other than being recognized by those marauding and usurping “thugs” as a loyal support of the Will and Testament of ‘Abdu’l-Baha!

II. Dealing with Khanumist’s( Covenant-breakers)

It is written in the scriptures that "he who sits with a leper gets leprosy" (See 'Abdu'l-Baha's "Last Tablet to America"), but it is also written that "Jesus walked amongst the people and healed them". Today - though the violation of the "Hands" has spread world-wide, those who are under the provisions of the Covenant are immune to its poison and are free to circulate amongst all the people without personal worry. In fact they may be able to do good in helping others. Now that we know the Davidic Kingship will never end, and that this is how we recognize the true UHJ, the violation of the "Hands" is inert and has no effect upon us at all.

Within the mainstream community of "Ruhiyyih Khanum and those that followed her" there is a mixture of pure of heart people who are true Baha'is, and rabid covenant-breakers, that are in tight league with the violation of the Hands. For those who were raised in this community, and have deep ties, this presents a grave problem. For example one of the oldest families in the Baha'i world, which is a family related to the Bab and was the first to accept the Bab and then passed through the test accepting Baha'u'llah, are also firm supporters of myself as the great-grandson of 'Abdu'l-Baha, and the fact that the Council over which Mr. Neal Chase preside is the true UHJ. Were the members of this family to make a public declaration of this truth, to the community, without a doubt they would severely pressured with threats of not only being "shunned", but, as in other cases reported to us, may even receive death threats. As true Baha'is these threats do not effect them, but 'Abdu'l-Baha in the Will and Testament asks us to be cautious in our teaching efforts. So they have informed us of their situation, and circulate throughout that community within a circle of friends who are also firm in the Covenant, and they "avoid" those others in that community that they can see are Covenant-breakers. Thus, we have to all, everyone of us, be able to distinguish, with our own eyes, between those we meet as to who is spiritual and positive, and those who are firm in the violation.

Now is the sounding bell and time for all the people to investigate the truth of the claims of the Baha’i Faith, the foundation of its covenant in the sacred Will and Testament of ‘Abdul-Baha, and make their choice. They can come under the provisions of the covenant (uhj.net), join God’s heavely army – the 144,000 - or remain obstinate – and be replaced by others

Thus they must be told only one simple FACT: the UHJ on Mt. Carmel is the wrong UHJ. It has no executive branch as stated on page 15 of the Will and testament, Therefore THEY are the Covenant-breakers.

The follow-up from them is obvious: "Where is the true UHJ?

Answer: It was established by Shoghi Effendi himself on January 9, 1951 and it had 'Abdu'l-Baha's aghsan-son as its president and executive.

When Shoghi Effendi passed on - there was no "interregnum" the infallibility immediately passed on to the true UHJ. 'Abdu'l-Baha's aghsan-son signed a covenant with all the Hands that they would not go against Shoghi Effendi's plan to have this UHJ evolve through four stages because the Will and Testament states that to go against Shoghi Effendi is to go against God. However the majority of the "Hands" led by Ruhiyyih Khanum, broke this covenant and dismantled the true UHJ in November of 1959 and then had all the Baha'i world shun 'Abdu'l-Baha's aghsan-son.

When 'Abdu'l-Baha had travelled to American in 1912, the same way Baha'u'llah took 'Abdu'l-Baha up on Mt. Carmel to the grove of Cyprus trees and showed him the spot where to build the shrine of the Bab, 'Abdu'l-Baha himself designated the spot in the Rocky Mountains of the US where the true UHJ should be established in the time of the violation as well as the great catastrophe. That is where the true UHJ is located today, and the great-grandson of "Abdu'l-Baha an aghsan - not of those expelled for covenant-breaking by Baha'u'llah, 'Abdu'l-Baha or Shoghi Effendi - is its current president.

This should all be studied and documented from the available books and literature.

You can look up "Interregnum" in the basic Baha'i dictionary by Wendi Momen or the Baha'is Encyclopedia, or some other of their literature. It refers to the supposed "gap" where there was supposedly "no infallibility" during the ministry of the custodians, that is the ministry of the "hands". The Hands states that as Shoghi Effendi is infallible, and as the UHJ is infallible and as "there was no "UHJ" at the time of the passing of Shoghi Effendi (that the lie), therefore, they had to go from one point of infallibility (Shoghi Effendi) to another point of infallibility (the UHJ) which they would "elect" in 1963.

Thus the interregnum is the period of time about 7 years from 1957 on November 4, until April 21, 1963, when there was no infallibility at all and the Hands were in control. Now it is a bold faced lie that there was no UHJ for the UHJ was set up by Shoghi Effendi himself in 1951 about 7 years overlap with his own ministry. At the moment of his passing the conferred infallibility passed from Shoghi Effendi to the UHJ with 'Abdu'l-Baha's aghsan-son as its president which THEN should have been IMMEDIATELY activated by its president. As it was not activated (as he instead went into conclave with the rest of the Hands), ALL the people fell into error, and on April 21, 1963 God had the promised establisher of the Baha'i Faith Dr. Leland Jensen begin his mission and the UHJ was reestablished on January 9, 1991 with the grandson (1991 to 1994) and then the great grandson of 'Abdu'l-Baha (1994 to the present) as its executive.

Thus the Khanumist’s are the Covenant-breakers! They have no executive (Will and Testament page 15)!

The Tree of Life is just beginning to grow… this tree of Life is the Book of the Covenant, the sacred Will and Testament of ‘Abdu’l-Baha!

He is God!

O ye friends of God!

'Abdu'l-Baha is day and night thinking of you and mentioning you, for the friends of God are dear to Him. Every morning at dawn I supplicate the Kingdom of God and ask that you may be filled with the breath of the Holy Spirit, so that you may become brilliant candles, shine with the light of guidance and dispel the darkness of error. Rest assured that the confirmations of the Abha Kingdom will continuously reach you.

Through the power of the divine springtime, the downpour of the celestial clouds and the heat of the Sun of Reality, the tree of life is just beginning to grow. Before long, it will produce buds, bring forth leaves and fruits, and cast its shade over the East and the West. This Tree of Life is the Book of the Covenant.

In America , in these days, severe winds have surrounded the Lamp of the Covenant, hoping that this brilliant Light may be extinguished, and this Tree of Life may be uprooted. Certain weak, capricious, malicious and ignorant souls have been shaken by the earthquake of hatred, of animosity, have striven to efface the Divine Covenant and Testament, and render the clear water muddy so that in it they might fish. They have arisen against the Center of the Covenant like the people of Bayan who attacked the Blessed Beauty and every moment uttered a calumny. Every day they seek a pretext and secretly arouse doubts, so that the Covenant of Baha'u'llah may be completely annihilated in America .

O friends of God! Be awake, be awake; be vigilant, be vigilant! His Holiness, the Bab, made a Covenant for Baha'u'llah with all the people of the Bayan, so that on the day of appearance of "Him Whom God shall manifest"--and of the radiation of the Light of Baha'u'llah, they might believe and be assured, arise in service and promulgate the Word of God. Later the people of the Bayan, like Mirza Yahya and many others, arose against the Blessed Beauty, invented every sort of calumny, aroused doubt in the minds of the people, and from the Books of His Holiness the Bab --that were full of references to "Him Whom God shall manifest"--tried to prove Baha'u'llah false. Every day they wrote and spread a pamphlet opposing Baha'u'llah, caused trouble and perplexity among the people; they inflicted the greatest injury and cruelty, yet counted themselves firm in the Covenant of His Holiness, the Bab. However, when the light of the Covenant of His Holiness, the Bab, lighted the universe, then all the faithful and sincere souls were freed from the darkness of the violation of the people of the Bayan and shone like brilliant candles.

Baha'u'llah, in all the Tablets and Epistles, forbade the true and firm friends from associating and meeting the violators of the Covenant of His Holiness, the Bab, saying that no one should go near them because their breath is like the poison of the snake that kills instantly.

In the Hidden Words, He says: "Esteem the friendship of the just, but withhold both mind and hand from the company of the wicked."

Addressing one of the friends, He says: "It is clear to your honor that before long Satan, in the garb of man, will reach that land and will try to mislead the friends of the Divine Beauty through temptations which arouse the desires of self, and will cause them to follow the footsteps of Satan away from the right and glorious path, and prevent them from attaining the Blessed Shore of the King of Oneness. This is a hidden information of which we have informed the chosen ones lest they may be deprived of their praiseworthy station by associating with the embodiments of hatred. Therefore, it is incumbent upon all the friends of God to shun any person in whom they perceive the emanation of hatred for the Glorious Beauty of Abha, though he may quote all the Heavenly Utterances and cling to all the Books." He continues--Glorious be His Name!--"Protect yourselves with utmost vigilance, lest you be entrapped in the snare of deception and fraud." This is the advice of the Pen of Destiny.

In another address, He says: "Therefore, to avoid these people will be the nearest path by which to attain the divine good pleasure; because their breath is infectious, like unto poison."

In another Tablet, He says: "O Kazim, close thine eye to the people of the world; drink the water of knowledge from the heavenly cup bearers, and listen not to the nonsensical utterances of the manifestations of Satan, because the manifestations of Satan are occupying today the observation posts of the glorious path of God, and preventing the people by every means of deception and ruse. Before long you will witness the turning away of the people of Bayan from the Manifestation of the Merciful."

In another Tablet, He says: "Endeavor to your utmost to protect yourselves, because Satan appears in different robes and appeals to everyone according to each person's own way until he becomes like unto him--then he will leave him alone." In another Tablet, He says: "Shun any man in whom you perceive enmity for this Servant, though he may appear in the garb of piety of the former and later people, or may arise to the worship of the two worlds."

In another Tablet, He says: "O Mahdi! Be informed by these utterances and shun the manifestations of the people of hell, the rising place of Nimrods, the rising place of Pharees, the fountain of Tagut, and the soothsayers. "

Again He says: "Say, O my friend and my pure ones! Listen to the Voice of this Beloved Prisoner in this Great Prison. If you detect in any man the least perceptible breath of violation, shun him and keep away from him." Then He says: "Verily, they are manifestations of Satan."

In another Tablet, He says: "And turn your faces to the Great Countenance for before long the foul odors of the wicked persons will pass over these regions. God willing, you may remain protected during these days."

In the 18th chapter of the Gospel of Matthew, 6th to 9th verses, His Holiness Christ says: "But whosoever shall offend one of these little ones which believe in Me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea. Woe unto the world because of offenses, for it must needs be that offenses come, but woe to that man by whom the offense cometh. Wherefore if thy hand or thy feet offend thee, cut them off and cast them from thee; it is better for thee to enter into life halt or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet, to be cast into everlasting fire. And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out and cast it from thee."

And in the 21st chapter and 38th verse of the Gospel of Matthew, He says: "But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, this is the heir, come let us kill him and let us seize on his inheritance. And they caught him and cast him out of the vineyard and slew him."

Also in the 22nd chapter and the 14th verse of the Gospel of Matthew, He says "But many are called and few are chosen."

In the Holy Writings of His Holiness, Baha'u'llah, in a thousand places at least, the violators of the Covenant are execrated and condemned. Some of the heavenly passages will be mentioned.

In short, all the friends in America know that the founders of this sedition--namely, the violators of the Covenant--are people whose aims are known to all the friends. Yet, O glorious God, they are deceived by them!

Praise be to God, you know with perfect clearness that His Holiness Christ, was extremely kind and loving, yet there were people like Judas Iscariot who--by their own deeds--separated themselves from Christ. Therefore, what fault of Christ's could that be? Now the Nakzeen say that 'Abdu'l-Baha is despotic, drives some people out and excommunicates like the Pope. This is not so at all! Any person who has left (the Cause), did so because of his own actions, intrigues and evil plots. If this objection be raised against 'Abdu'l-Baha, they must also object to the Blessed Beauty who, with distinct and conclusive command, forbids the friends from companionship and familiarity with the violators of the people of Bayan.

Supplication! O Lord of the Covenant! O luminous Star of the world! The persecuted 'Abdu'l-Baha has fallen into the hands of persons who appear as sheep and in reality are ferocious wolves; they exercise every sort of oppression, endeavor to destroy the foundation of the Covenant,--and claim to be Baha'is. They strike at the root of the Tree of the Covenant--and count them-selves persecuted-- just as did the people of Bayan who broke the Covenant of His Holiness, the Bab, and from six directions shot arrows of reproach and calumny at Thy Blessed Body. Notwithstanding this great oppression, they call themselves oppressed. Now this Servant of Thy Threshold has also fallen into the hands of oppressors. Every hour they contrive new intrigues and fraud, and bring forth new calumny.

Ya-Baha'u'l- Abha! Protect the Stronghold of Thy Cause from these thieves, and safeguard the lamps of the Kingdom from these malevolent winds!

Ya-Baha'u'l- Abha! 'Abdu'l-Baha did not rest a moment until He had raised Thy Cause and the Standard of the Kingdom of Abha waved over the world. Now some people have arisen with intrigues and evil aspirations to trample this flag in America , but My hope is in Thy confirmations. Leave Me not single, alone and oppressed! As Thou didst promise, verbally and in writing, that Thou wouldst protect this deer of the pasture of Thy love from the attacks of the hounds of hatred and animosity, and that Thou wouldst safeguard this persecuted sheep from the claws and teeth of the ferocious wolves,--now do I await the appearance of Thy bounties and the realization of Thy definite promise. Thou art the true Protector, and Thou art the Lord of the Covenant! Therefore, protect this Lamp which Thou hast lighted, from the severe winds.

Ya-Baha'u'l- Abha! I have forsaken the world and its people, am heartbroken because of the unfaithful, and am weary. In the cage of this world I flutter like a frightened bird and long for the flight to Thy Kingdom.

Ya-Baha'u'l- Abha! Make me to drink the cup of sacrifice, and free Me! Relieve Me from these difficulties, hardships, afflictions and troubles! Thou art the assister, the helper, the protector and the supporter!

Now some of the writings, prayers and verses of the Blessed Beauty will be mentioned in which association with the violators is forbidden. In the Iranian Commune, He says:

"Protect this Servant from the doubts of the persons who have turned away from Thee and are deprived of the sea of Thy knowledge. O God! O God! Protect this Servant through Thy bounty and generosity from the evil of Thine enemies who have broken Thy Covenant and Testament."

In another place He says: "O My God and the Aim of My Life! Protect this weak one with Thy Mighty hand from the voice of the Naegh (croaking of the golden calf)."

Also He says: "Ye have taken one whom I hate to be thy beloved, and My enemy to be thy friend."

Also He says: "The company of the wicked ones increaseth sorrow, and the association with the pious ones removeth rust from the heart. The one who desires to associate with God, let him associate with His friends; the one who wishes to hear the Words of God, let him hear the words of His chosen ones."

Also He says: "Do not associate with the wicked, because the company of the wicked changeth the light of life into the fire of remorse. If thou asketh for the bounties of the Holy Spirit, associate with the pure ones, because they have quaffed the eternal chalice from the hands of the Cupbearer of eternity."

Also He says: "The greatest of degradation is to leave the Shadow of God and enter under the shadow of Satan."

Also He says: "O ye servants! There is nothing in this heart save the effulgences of the splendor of the morn of Meeting, and it does not speak but the absolute truth from your Lord. Therefore, do not follow self; break not God's Covenant and violate not His Testament. Proceed with perfect steadfastness, and with heart, soul and tongue, turn unto Him, and be not of the thoughtless. "

And still He says: "You have forgotten God's Covenant and violated His Testament."

And again He says: "If anyone comes to you with the book of the wicked, put him behind you."

"Among the people are those who have broken the Covenant, and among them are those who have followed what was ordained by the All-Knower, the All-Wise. My affliction is not from My imprisonment and persecution, or from what comes to Me from My rebellious servants,--but from the actions of those who attribute themselves to this persecuted One and commit among the people that which is degrading to the honor of God. Verily, they are of the seditious."

Likewise speaking for the violators, He says: "Thou hast made the pulpits for Thy mention, the proclamation of Thy Word and the manifestation of Thy Cause, and we have ascended them to proclaim the breaking of Thy Covenant and Testament."

Likewise, He says: "Take what has been ordained for you and follow not those who have broken God's Covenant and Testament, for lo! they are the people of error."

Again He says: "Those who have broken the Covenant of God, notwithstanding His Commands, and have turned away, they are the people of error before the most Opulent, the Exalted."

And He says: "Those who have been faithful to God's Covenant are of the highest ones in the sight of the exalted Lord. Those who have become negligent are of the people of fire in the sight of Thy Lord, the Beloved, the Independent. "

He says: "Blessed is the servant or maid-servant who believes, and woe to the polytheists who have violated the Covenant of God and His Testament, and deviated from My Right Path."

He says: "I implore of Thee not to deprive me of what Thou possessest or what Thou hast ordained for Thy chosen ones who have not broken Thy Covenant and Testament. Say! Die with your hatred! Verily, He is come by Whom the pillars of the world have been shaken and because of Whom the feet have stumbled--save those who have not broken the Covenant, but have followed what God revealed in His Book."

Likewise He says: "The Supreme Concourse will pray for the one who is adorned with the garment of faithfulness between heaven and earth; but he who breaks the Covenant is cursed by heaven and earth."

Likewise He says: "Take hold of what has been revealed unto you, with a power superior to that of the hands of the unbelievers who have violated the Covenant of God and His Testament, and have turned from the Face."

Also He says: "O Yahya! Verily the Book has come! Take it with a power from Us and do not follow those who have broken the Covenant of God and His Testament, and have denied what has been revealed from the Powerful, the All-Knower."

Likewise He says: "I awoke this morning, O My God, under the shadow of Thy great bounty and have taken, with Thy power, the pen to mention Thee with such mention as shall be a light unto the pure, and fire unto the wicked who have violated Thy Covenant, denied Thy Verses and put aside the Kawther of life which appeared by Thy command and was revealed by the finger of Thy will."

Here, in a Tablet to 'Abdu'l-Baha, He says also: "O God! This is a Branch which has sprung forth from the Tree of Oneness, the Sadrat of Thy Unity. O God! Thou seest Him looking to Thee and clinging to the rope of Thy Bounties. Protect Him in the shelter of Thy Mercy! Thou knowest, O My God, that I do not desire Him save for what Thou dost desire Him, and I do not choose Him save for what Thou dost choose Him. Assist Him with the Hosts of Thy earth and Thy heaven. Assist, O God, those who assist Him, and choose those who choose Him. Confirm those who draw nigh unto Him, and debase those who deny Him and do not want Him. O God, Thou seest that at this moment of Revelation My Pen shakes and My Being trembles. I ask Thee, By My impatience in Thy Love and My willingness to proclaim Thy Cause, to ordain for Him and His friends, what Thou hast ordained for Thy Messengers and the faithful ones of Thy Revelation. Verily, Thou art the powerful and the omnipotent! By God, O people, My eye weeps, and the eye of 'Ali weeps in the Supreme Concourse; My heart throbs, and the heart of Muhammad throbs in the Courts of Abha; My heart and the hearts of the Prophets lament with the people of knowledge, if you are those who are possessed of sight. My sorrow is not for Myself, but for the One Who comes after Me in the Shadow of the Cause with a clear, undeniable reign; because these will not acknowledge His Manifestation and will deny His evidences and verses, will dispute His power, will antagonize Him and will be traitors to His Cause as they did to His Person in those days--and ye were witnesses."

Again in a Tablet to 'Abdu'l-Baha, He says: "O Greatest Branch! Verily, Thy illness caused Me sorrow, but God will cure Thee, and He is the most generous and best helper. Glory be upon Thee and upon those who serve Thee and encircle Thee! Woe and torment be upon him who opposes and torments Thee! Blessed is he who befriends Thee, and hell be for him who opposes Thee!"

Likewise He says: "Is it possible that after the dawning of the sun of Thy Testament from the horizon of Thy greatest Tablet that any feet shall slip away from the right Path? We said, O My Supreme Pen, it behooves Thee to do as Thou hast been bidden by God, the exalted and the great. Do not ask about that which melts Thy heart and those of the denizens of Paradise who encompass Thy wonderful Cause. Thou shouldst not know what We have hidden from Thee. Thy Lord is the veiler and the knower. Turn Thy most luminous Face to the greatest aspect and say: O My Merciful God! Decorate the Heaven of Bayan with the stars of steadfastness, trust and truth. Verily, Thou art the Powerful over what Thou willest. There is no God save Thee, the wise and the generous."

In short, from these Holy Utterances and those of His Holiness Christ, it becomes clear, evident and proved, that man should associate with people who are firm in the Covenant and Testament, and befriend the pure ones; because bad associates bring about infection of bad qualities. It is like leprosy; it is impossible for a man to associate and befriend a leper and not be infected. This command is for the sake of protection and to safeguard.

Consider this text of the New Testament: the brothers of His Holiness Christ, came to Him and they said: "These are your brothers." He answered that His brothers were those who believed in God, and refused to associate with His own brothers.

Likewise Qurratu'l-'Ayn, who is celebrated in all the world, when she believed in God and was attracted to the Divine Breaths, she forsook her two eldest sons, although they were her two oldest children, because they did not become believers, and thereafter did not meet them. She said: "All the friends of God are my children, but these two are not. I will have nothing to do with them."

Consider! The Divine Gardener cuts off the dry or weak branch [Muhammad-Ali] from the good tree and grafts to it, a branch [Mason Remey Aghsan, the legally adopted (garfted) aghsan-son of 'Abdu'l-Baha] from another tree. He both separates and unites. This is that which His Holiness Christ says: that from all the world they come and enter the Kingdom, and the children of the Kingdom shall be cast out. Noah's grandson, Canaan , was detested in the sight of Noah and others were accepted. The brothers of the Blessed Beauty detached themselves from Him, and the Blessed Beauty never met them. He said: "This is an eternal separation between you and Me." All this was not because the Blessed Beauty was despotic; but because these persons, through their own actions and words deprived themselves from the bounties and bestowals of the Blessed Beauty. His Holiness Christ did not exercise despotism in the case of Judas Iscariot and His own brothers,--but they separated themselves.

In short, the point is this: 'Abdu'l-Baha is extremely kind, but when the disease is leprosy, what am I to do? Just as in bodily diseases we must prevent intermingling and infection and put into effect sanitary laws--because the infectious physical diseases uproot the foundation of humanity; likewise one must protect and safeguard the blessed souls from the breaths and fatal spiritual diseases; otherwise violation, like the plague, will become a contagion and all will perish. In the early days, after the Ascension of the Blessed Beauty, the Center of violation was alone; little by little the infection spread; and this was due to companionship and association.
