Sinopsis

Here is a pen-picture of âÇÖAbduâÇÖl-Bahá by an author whom Shoghi Effendiácalled âÇÖthe best writer we have . . . the pre-eminent BaháâÇÖ¡ writer.âÇÖThis collection, which was published to commemorate the 75th anniversary of âÇÖAbduâÇÖl-BaháâÇÖs journey to the West, brings together in one volume the various writings of George Townshendáto and about âÇÖAbduâÇÖl-Bahá, so that his own portrait of the Master emerges, with fitting reverence to the Centre of the Covenant, the Exemplar, the Mystery of God. George Townshend dwells with emphasis on âÇÖAbduâÇÖl-BaháâÇÖs historic journey to the West in his essays on âÇÖThe MasterâÇÖ and âÇÖThe ExemplarâÇÖ.In âÇÖA Study of a Christ-like CharacterâÇÖ, âÇÖThe Letters of âÇÖAbduâÇÖl-BaháâÇÖ and âÇÖThe Fire of the KingâÇÖs LoveâÇÖ, he leads the reader into a fuller realization of that divine love and spirituality exemplified in the MasterâÇÖs life.âÇÖTo live today in deed and truth the kind of life that Jesus of Nazareth led and bade his followers lead, to love God wholeheartedly and for GodâÇÖs sake to love all mankind, even oneâÇÖs slanderers and enemies, to give consistently good for evil, blessings for curses, kindness for cruelty . . . to preserve oneâÇÖs courage and sweetness and calm faith in God - to do all this and yet to play the man in a world of men, sharing at home and in business the common life of humanity, administering when occasion arose affairs and small, handling complex situations with foresight and firmness . . . to how many men is such an achievement given as it has been given in this age of ours to âÇÖAbduâÇÖl-Bahá?âÇÖ George Townshend.
