Dear Listener,
More than two years ago now, I became aware of the lack of high quality Bahá'í audiobooks. I realized that the need was not just mine, or even just the Bahá'í community’s, but also the world’s. As word of the Bahá'í Faith spreads, interested people with busy lives will be searching for a convenient way to learn about it. I decided to try to fill that need. Starting with no experience or knowledge but with a willing heart, I persevered. You are now holding the first fruit of what I intend to be an ongoing endeavor to bring as many of the Bahá'í Writings to the ears of the world as I can.

My humble thanks to you for helping to support this effort. I hope you enjoy it.

Warmest regards,
Leanne Ralya Eleff

P.s. If there’s one thing I’ve learned from recording this book, it’s that Shoghi Effendi needs to be read over and over in order to fully comprehend his meaning. You might, therefore, find it helpful to listen to this audiobook several times, perhaps even reading along as you listen. To facilitate your study, the page and paragraph numbers - corresponding to the 2006 edition of The Advent of Divine Justice - are provided. At this time, only the 2006 edition of the printed book contains the paragraph numbers referenced here, but you can also number your own copy, using the “Beginning Words” provided.
