* Participants in the courses of the Ruhi Institute are expected to achieve
three levels of comprehension of the quotations they study: to understand
the meaning of the words and sentences from the Writings, to see how
concepts in the Writings apply to one's daily life, and to grasp some of the
implications of the quotations.
* The technique of dividing the participants into pairs, with one person
reading a passage and the other formulating a related question, has a
specific purpose and thus certain limitations in its usefulness.
* The ability to focus attention on the immediate and explicit meaning of
passages from the Writings contributes to the creation of unity in Bahá'í
communities.
* Long discussions on the meaning of single words out of the context of the
material being studied can be counterproductive.
