There was no second Guardian
by smaneck (not verified) on Mon Feb 09, 2009 11:01 AM PST

The reason that the Baha'i community failed to recognize that a second
Guardian is because Shoghi Effendi never appointed one. You will not
find a single document appointing Mason Remey Guardian. Remey was an
American Baha'i twenty years senior to Shoghi Effendi who couldn't
even read the writings in the original, let alone interpret them. Here
is the document which Mason Remey himself signed after Shoghi
Effendi's passing:

"The Custodians shall be deemed to succeed the Guardian of the Bahá'í
Faith, His Eminence the late Shoghi Effendi Rabbani, in Palestine or
Israel Branches of National Spiritual Assemblies of various countries,
which are registered in Israel, and the Custodians may nominate one or
more persons to act on their behalf in any such Israel Branches."
Completed, sealed and signed on this 25th day of November, 1957.

Even if Shoghi Effendi had appointed Mason Remey as his successor
(which he did not) in signing the above document, Remey would have
been legally signing away any claim he might have to that office to
the Custodians, those Hands chosen to serve in the Holy Land pending
the election of the Universal House of Justice.

Case closed.

Ah yes, the mysterious Afnan. Funny that he never came forward, and
indeed nobody seems to know about him except The Great Maker-Up Of
Things. Perhaps soimeone who hasn't a proven track record of wild
claims and invention could tell us somehting about him? Someone who
hasn't openly and proudly admitted he'll say anything as long as it's
against the Baha'is?
Post by Ruhaniya
Bottom line - Nima doesn't like Baha'is or their beliefs, he doesn't
think they should be accorded the same rights as other people, and he
will say anything to try to do them down. Sometimes he likes the IRI,
sometimes he likes the Shah, sometimes he pretends to run with one
crowd, sometimes with another, but this is the one constant.
There you go! You finally figured it all out. Congratulations.

DEATH TO BAHAISM!

I have come across some interesting evidence that NIma's claim that
Shoghi Effendi came to London to talk to a certain Afnan about
succession is in fact true. I don't think it changes anything but I
am not willing to discuss it beyond this. Shoghi Effendi did have a
successor in mind, he was terribly worried about setting up a rival
but at last was convinced to travel to London to arrange things but
died before anything could be done.

I know Nima then asserts that foul play was involved but it really
just appears that Shoghi Effendi didn't think that a bout of
influenza
along with his weaken heart would do him in. A bit of bad luck
really, not a conspiracy.

Dear Baha'i Friend,


The National Spiritual Assembly understands that you are involved in a
weekly Iranian television programme in Perth, sponsored by an Iranian
Muslim.

As you would undoubtedly be aware the House of Justice calls for
Baha'is to exercise great caution in their relations with the Iranian
community. The National Assembly has determined that your involvement
in this programme is not wise. In the best interests of the Faith you
should immediately cease your participation in this television
programme.

Due to the need to protect the Faith in Australia the National
Assembly feels it necessary to warn you that failure to comply with
this instruction will result in the removal of your administrative
rights. The National Assembly looks forward to receiving confirmation
that you have discontinued this activity.


We take this opportunity to recommend that you re-familiarize yourself
with the guidance of the Universal House of Justice in its letter
dated June 18, 1999. A copy of this letter is enclosed.


With loving Baha'i greetings,


NATIONAL SPIRITUAL ASSEMBLY

It remains that Shoghi Effendi would have violated the specific
stipulations of both the aqdas and his grandfather's will had he not
composed a will of his own and organized a successor. It also remains
that there are multiple testimonies now to the existence of a will and
testament of Shoghi Effendi and a specifically stipulated appointment
of a successor in said document.
 It remains that the Mystery Afnan did not step

Maybe this mystery Afnan was 1) the smart one and has been biding

Oh! Really now.

Let me throw another log on the fire. The document referred to had to
have been a secular document, since there had not yet been established
a Baha'i Court system in the major Islamic cities as specified by
Shoghi Efendi as an essential prelude to the formation of a Universal
House of Justice. That is just one more facet not enacted upon by the
Hands in the Holy Land as they bungled through their activites after
the death of the First Guardian. Now, had there been already
established the Baha'i Court System commanded by Shoghi Effendi, and
had Mason Remey signed a document under its jurisdiction, that would
perhaps be another matter entirely. Any activity peformed by men,
within the secular court systems of the world, remain of this world.
It will be only when the Divinely developed Baha'i Court system is a
part of our fabric that such Baha'i matters may be given any
credence.

The same thing applies as regards the current legal battle brought
against the Orthodox Baha'i Faith by the NSA of the United States.
Secular court activities yield secular results. Regardless of the
outcome of the current legal dispute, the matter of the continuing
guardianship will be ultimately resolved on the battlefield of the
hearts of men.

"The Custodians shall be deemed to succeed the Guardian of the Bahá'í
Faith,..."
A group of Hands could not 'deem' themselves to succeed the Guardian
of the Bahá'í Faith any more than a Governor of one of Americas States
could have deemed herself/himself to be President of the United States
of America, by-passing the election process. United States Law would
not allow it, and neither does Bahá'í Holy Text, the sacred and
immutable Will and Testament of `Abdu'l-Bahá permit anyone to be
Guardian except a man chosen and appointed in accord with the
hereditary principle of the Bahá'í Faith

Furthermore, Charles Mason Remey's authority as head of the embryonic
Universal House of Justice was not diminished by signing his name to a
document which had no validity in the Bahá'í Faith. That paper
establishing the Custodians had no more legitimate authority than a
get-well card, or a wish-you-were-here postcard signed by all of the
Conference attendees present at a Conference and sent to a member who
was unable to attend. It makes no difference what the document said or
how it was worded, the Master, the Center of the Covenant , did not
authorize it, so it is meaningless in the Bahá'í Faith, and all of its
signatures are meaningless.

Only Shoghi Effendi's appointment of the "sacred head" of the
embryonic Universal House of Justice has true authority in the Bahá'í
Faith, and that "sacred head" by the Master's instruction, can only be
the Guardian of the Bahá'í Faith as soon as that House of Justice is
activated. And when Shoghi effendi died, it immediately became
activated and Charles Mason Remey immediately became the second
Guardian of the Bahá'í Faith.

It makes no difference that he was not fully aware of that fact at the
time. He did not choose himself to be Guardian of the Faith.

by smaneck (not verified) on Mon Feb 09, 2009 11:01 AM PST
The reason that the Baha'i community failed to recognize that a second
Guardian is because Shoghi Effendi never appointed one. You will not
find a single document appointing Mason Remey Guardian. Remey was an
American Baha'i twenty years senior to Shoghi Effendi who couldn't
even read the writings in the original, let alone interpret them. Here
is the document which Mason Remey himself signed after Shoghi
"The Custodians shall be deemed to succeed the Guardian of the Bahá'í
Faith, His Eminence the late Shoghi Effendi Rabbani, in Palestine or
Israel Branches of National Spiritual Assemblies of various countries,
which are registered in Israel, and the Custodians may nominate one or
more persons to act on their behalf in any such Israel Branches."
Completed, sealed and signed on this 25th day of November, 1957.
Even if Shoghi Effendi had appointed Mason Remey as his successor
(which he did not) in signing the above document, Remey would have
been legally signing away any claim he might have to that office to
the Custodians, those Hands chosen to serve in the Holy Land pending
the election of the Universal House of Justice.

Dear Friends,

Is there so little faith amongst the friends in the Will of God? Do
they
think that God, an omnipotent being, would actually change his mind?
What price does the world pay for their faithlessness?

What would, what could this world be now, if the Baha'is had remained
faithful to the Promise
that God has made to all of us?

Love,

Janet
