To,
Mr. Kenneth E. Bowers
Secretary National Spiritual Assembly of Bahais of United States
We have just read your letter/warnings regarding the activities of one Mr. Bahareh Moghaddam, who you feel is trying to deceive and misguide the Bahais of Iranian descent by sowing the seeds of discord. Well, you may or may not be right in your analysis, but as a sincere and third generation Bahai, I wish to mention that before breaking into pen please follow the principle that Ignorance sometimes is a Bliss (i.e you could have ignored him). Now I am sure many Bahais will take a chance to connect themselves with the misguided soul.
Having given my advice to you regarding the Enemies of Faith, I have some very rough and tough questions to ask. You may forward it to Beloved Universal House of Justice for its explanation.
We, Persian Bahais are concluding that PERSECUTION is something which is destined to us. We face persecution in the country where we pioneer, we face persecution in our own country and now we are facing persecution in our own Faith by fellow Bahais.
Dear Secretary, we see a very systematic persecution of Persian of Bahais in Bahai Administration. It looks like there is systematic cleansing of Persian Bahais from the Bahai Administration.
The representation of the Persian Bahais in Universal House of Justice has gone down tremendously, and they are being replaced by unskilled, ignorant Bahais.
The ITC has been cleansed of many Persian Bahai except Mrs. Mehrangiz. The number of Persian Bahais as counsellors have come down drastically and the story is not different for the ABMs.
They were asked to leave their place of pioneer where they had established themselves, gained respect, involved themselves in Teaching of the Faith and then asked to settle in some other parts of the world. This is nothing but humiliation and harassment.
The case of Bahai Scholar Ahang Rabbani has not be forgotten. After working for 15 years at the World Centre, he was Heart broken.
The way Mr. Ali Nakhjawani was hunted for his misunderstood statement resulting into ignorant Bahais daring to ask him that why he gave such statement.
A sincere Persian Bahais in India was threatened by one of the members of UHJ that he should come in line with UHJ or face severe consequences
Jamshed Fozdar and Firoz Anaki were on the brink of being declared Covenant Breakers but some better reasoning prevailed on UHJ and they stopped from doing such an atrocious act.
There are some misguided Bahais who are making fake sites in the name of sincere Bahais for defamation.
A Norway Bahai sent to India made the life of Persian pioneer miserable in India. He was an arch enemy of Persian Bahais.
Wife of a well-respected former counsellor wanted to attend a Bahai programme but was refused permission. It was well evident that she was accused of being siding with Persian Bahais
The Late Mr. Hasan Sabri along with Isabella Sabri made fun of Persian Bahais and use to call them KHAR (donkey) and use to say that Persian Bahais are misguiding other Bahais.
Many sincere Bahais were asked not to enter any other countries else face consequences.
We see that if a non-Persian Counsellor retires from his post, he is immediately offered another post in his own country, but if the counsellor is a Persian, and that too a pioneer, never this opportunity of service had been offered to him or his experience used for promotion of the Faith.
A retired counsellor wanted to attend a conference in a foreign country at his own expense but was denied permission by the NSA of that country
I don’t understand how just for expressing ones feelings about injustice, is categorized as sowing the seeds of discord?
