This incredible document, from the pen of Abdu’l-Baha, is a cornerstone of the Administrative Order of the Baha’i Faith. Read by the acclaimed actor Phillip Hinton, this audiobook is a must have for all Baha’i libraries.

Shoghi Effendi referred to it as: “The Document establishing that Order, the Charter of a future world civilization, which may be regarded in some of its features as supplementary to no less weighty a Book than the Kitab-i-Aqdas; signed and sealed by ‘Abdu’l-Baha; entirely written with His own hand; its first section composed during one of the darkest periods of His incarceration in the prison-fortress of Akka, proclaims, categorically and unequivocally, the fundamental beliefs of the followers of the Faith of Baha’u’llah; reveals, in unmistakable language, the twofold character of the Mission of the Bab; discloses the full station of the Author of the Baha’i­ Revelation; asserts that “all others are servants unto Him and do His bidding”; stresses the importance of the Kitab-i-Aqdas; establishes the institution of the Guardianship as a hereditary office and outlines its essential functions; provides the measures for the election of the International House of Justice, defines its scope and sets forth its relationship to that Institution; prescribes the obligations, and emphasizes the responsibilities, of the Hands of the Cause of God; and extolls the virtues of the indestructible Covenant established by Baha’u’llah.”  ~ Shoghi Effendi, God Passes By, P.238

He outlines their destiny and mission that lies  before them. [audio mp3="http://hearthewritings.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/TODP-Sample.mp3"][/audio]]]> “O that I could travel, even though on foot and in the utmost poverty, to these regions, and, raising the call of “Ya Baha’u’l-Abha” in cities, villages, mountains, deserts and oceans, promote the divine teachings! This, alas, I cannot do. How intensely I deplore it! Please God, ye may achieve it.”
~ `Abdu’l-Bahá

Abdu’l-Bahá’s historic journey to North America in 1912 “endowed the United States and Canada, nay the entire continent, with potentialities such as it had never known in its history.”…”He, through that visit, had bequeathed a priceless heritage – a heritage which carried with it the sacred and primary obligation to arise and carry on in that fertile field the work He had so gloriously initiated.”

No sooner had His long and arduous journey ended, the world became embroiled in a global conflict whilst “…He, repairing to the quiet solitude of His residence in the close neighborhood of Baha’u’lláh’s hallowed shrine, continued to communicate His thoughts and wishes to those whom He had left behind…” “In the immortal Tablets… He unfolded to their eyes His conception of their spiritual destiny, His Plan for the mission He wished them to undertake. The seeds His hands had sown He was now watering with that same care, that same love and patience, which had characterized His previous endeavors whilst He was laboring in their midst.” (Quotes from Shoghi Effendi – God Passes By)
