Note on the importance of The Dawn-Breakers

[from Ruhi Book 7 Walking Together on a Path of Service, 2024, p142]:

The Guardian refers to this work as an “essential adjunct” to teaching programs and an “unchallengeable textbook” in summer schools. Further, he calls it a “source of inspiration in all literary and artistic pursuits,” an “invaluable companion in times of leisure,” an “indispensable preliminary to future pilgrimage to Bahá’u’lláh’s native land,” and an “unfailing instrument to allay distress and resist attacks of a critical, disillusioned humanity.” On the importance of that book, which was left for us by the great historian Nabíl, Shoghi Effendi writes:

Utilize, as extensively as you possibly can, the wealth of material which Nabíl’s stirring and precious narrative contains, and let it be your chief instrument wherewith you can feed the flame of enthusiasm that glows in every Bahá’í heart and upon which the success of your magnificent, your incessant efforts must ultimately depend.
