The anniversary of the declaration of the Bab

May 23, 1844 the anniversary of the declaration of the Bab marks the beginnings of the Baha’i Faith in Shiraz, Persia (Iran). The Bab, which means the “Gate”, proclaimed on that date that he was not only the founder of an independent religion, but the Herald of a New and Greater Prophet or Messenger of God, Who would usher in an age of peace for all mankind.
Bahá'í history is traced through a sequence of leaders, beginning with the Báb's May 23, 1844 Declaration in Shiraz, and ultimately resting on an Administrative Order under the guidance of a LIVING GUARDIAN established by the Central Figures of the religion.
The First Guardian of Baha’i Faith was Shoghi Effendi,
The Second Guardian was Mason Remey and the
THIRD Guardian JOEL BRAY MARANGELLA is now the Living Guardian.
All the Orthodox Baha'is of India extend their heartiest Greetings on this auspicious occasion to the Beloved Guardian Joel Bray Marangella and the Vice President of Third International Baha'i Council Mr. Nosratullah Bahremand and to all the Hands of Cause of God appointed by the Third Guardian.
Further we extend our Greetings to all the Baha’is of the world irrespective of the sects.
