It brings him (the Guardian) great joy to realize that we see before our eyes the promises of Bahá’u’lláh being fulfilled, and the peoples of East and West embracing as lovers, and united in the service of God and of man.
He feels that the Japanese people, so sensitive to every form of beauty both spiritual and material, will have a deep appreciation of the Teachings of Bahá’u’lláh, not only because of their truth and justice, but because of the great beauty which permeates them, a beauty which will gradually, through the fulfillment of His prophecies and the practice of His Laws and Principles, permeate the life of mankind, and create a society such as has never been dreamed of before.

[Letter of October 5, 1953]
To Mr. Michitoshi Zenimoto
Your letter has been received by the beloved Guardian and he has instructed me to answer you on his behalf.
Bahá’u’lláh wrote, many, many years ago: “The vitality of men’s belief in God is dying out in every land; nothing short of His wholesome medicine can ever restore it. The corrosion of ungodliness is eating into the vitals of human society; what else but the Elixir of His potent Revelation can cleanse and revive it?”
