64. The Mashriqu'l- Adhkar is one of the most vital institutions in the world, and it hath many subsidiary branches. Although it is a House of Worship, it is also connected with a hospital, a drug dispensary, a traveller's hospice, a school for orphans, and a university for advanced studies. Every Mashriqu'l- Adhkar is connected with these five things. My hope is that the Mashriqu'l- Adhkar will now be established in America, and that gradually the hospital, the school, the university, the dispensary and the hospice, all functioning according to the most efficient and orderly procedures, will follow. Make these matters known to the beloved of the Lord, so that they will understand how very great is the importance of this `Dawning- Point of the Remembrance of God.' The Temple is not only a place for worship; rather, in every respect is it complete and whole. (99:7)
