Here are, very briefly explained, some of the principles
of Bahá’u’lláh.
In short, it behoves us all to be lovers of
truth. Let us seek her in every season and in every country, being careful
never to attach ourselves to personalities. Let us see the light wherever it shines,
and may we be enabled to recognize the light of truth no matter where
it may arise. Let us inhale the perfume of the rose from the midst
of thorns which surround it; let us drink the running water from every pure spring.
('Abdu'l-Bahá:
Paris Talks, Pages: 133 - 134)

Mrs. Nakhjavani enthralled the audience with an account of the historic journey she and her husband undertook in 1953. They dropped off Ugandan Bahá'ís Enoch Olinga, Samson Mugono, and Max Kanyerezi at their respective posts in the Belgian Congo, Middle Congo and British Cameroon, as part of the worldwide project for the expansion of the Bahá'í Faith.
Also present at the celebration was Dr. Ezzatullah Tai, 73, originally from Iran and now of France, who played a key role in assisting the growth of the Congolese Bahá'í community.
