david,
i would offer to you that our hearts provide the guidance. there is this nice
line attributed to the Master in paris talks, "first >>you <<must find one who
is pleasing to >>u<<."
the rest of the cite says something about before that happens, parents have no
right to interfere with the process. if parentsw, who can say y/n on marriage
have no right there, what would the House have?
It can offer Text & Guidance, when such has been provenanced, and translated
accurately enuff to serve everyone.
before then, imho, it would almost be like playing favorites for the UHJ to say
anything other than, dude, check with freinds you trust, and best of luck to
u...which is what i se them telling you.
i also see them saying something else >>>verrrry<<<< important, imho..on the
issue of trusting translations, trusting sources, etc.
and to me that is the most wonderfullly helpful advice they could give.
a longish time ago on this list i posted a tghread which got no answers,
abou7t the idea that scholarship and acadaemia et al. ad naus serve little real
purpose unless it serves to improve the heart connection to the Blessed Beauty.
i mention this, becuase part of getting that done is making the heart conection
to ourselves...which is something i hear Baha'u'llah saying in valley 1 of the
4. your reading may vary.
