d future re-translation will clear up such passages.

You may be sure that his ardent prayers will be offered on behalf of all
the British Baha'is, that Baha'u'llah may aid them to fulfil His work and
may open the doors of servitude and guide them on their way. He will also
pray for you and your fellow N.S.A. members, for your strength, protection
and guidance in fulfilling your many important tasks.

P.S. Regarding Mr. ... financial affairs; there is naturally no objection
to his receiving his own money, but he should have no communication with
his family, and should arrange for your N.S.A. to receive his money and
deliver it to him. The Guardian is very pleased that he has taken the
right, courageous, Baha'i course of action in his life, and will certainly
pray for his happiness and protection.

There is no ambiguity about the Master's attitude towards psychic forces;
He very strongly warned the believers against using them.

[From the Guardian:]

Dear and valued co-workers,

I grieve to learn of the slow progress of the Six Year Plan which the
English believers have so nobly conceived, and which, I pray and hope,
will be triumphantly consummated. The Plan constitutes a direct and grave
challenge to the English Baha'i community in its entirety. It should be
regarded as the greatest collective enterprise ever launched by the
followers of the Faith of Baha'u'llah in the British Isles. It is thus far
one of the most significant undertakings embarked upon by the members of
Baha'i National Assemblies during the opening years of the second Baha'i
century. To it, as already observed, the immediate destinies of the
community of the English believers are linked, and on it must depend the
future orientation and evolution of the institutions which the members of
that community are labouring to erect for the diffusion of the principles
and the establishment of the Faith of Baha'u'llah in their country. It
must not, it cannot, fail. The attention of the entire body of the
believers must be continually focussed upon it. No sacrifice can be deemed
too great for its successful prosecution. All must arise harmoniously,
co-operate and lend their share of assistance. May the spirit of
Baha'u'llah enable them to achieve signal success.
