Neither easy nor difficult to read. "Arohanui: Letters from Shoghi Effendi to New Zealand" by Shoghi Effendi is a collection of correspondence written in the early to mid-20th century. This compilation details Shoghi Effendi's thoughts and guidance to the Bahá'ís of New Zealand, expressing love, encouragement, and spiritual insights as they develop their community. The letters serve not only as encouragement for the small but dedicated group of Bahá'ís in New Zealand but also as a historical account of the Faith's establishment in the region. The opening portion of the book introduces readers to the significance of the letters and the overarching theme of "Arohanui," a Maori term meaning "big love" or "enfolding love." The initial letters, dated from 1923 onwards, reflect Shoghi Effendi's deep appreciation for the efforts of individual Bahá'í members and the group as a whole, emphasizing themes of perseverance, spiritual growth, and community building. Through warm and affectionate language, he expresses hopes for the expansion of the Faith, acknowledges the challenges faced, and inspires the recipients to act as beacons of light for others. The messages blend personal anecdotes with broader spiritual advice, setting a foundational understanding for the reader about the emerging Bahá'í community in New Zealand.
