Travels to the west

Month, Day: 176, Words, Mercy  (Majesty)

Back in the 2012 timeframe, there was a website that presented entries from Mamud's Diary with commentary. This is the diary - Mahmúd's Diary: The Diary of Mírzá Mahmúd-i-Zarqání Chronicling 'Abdu'l-Bahá's Journey to America. This blog had posts that followed the journey's retrospective and pointed to writings of others. This post notes that we'll be doing a review, making changes, and getting a more permanent focus.

The Master arrived in April of 1212. He spent time in New England, DC, and Maine (we want to identify the families at Green Acre). A lot of those were family. He started West in September by going to MSP via CHI. By the end of September, He was in SLC on the way to SFO (I know, I'm using the modern label associated with air travel).

Thornton Chase died at the end of September in LAX. He is New England family, too. I just talked to a Baha'i researcher who mentioned that an early believer in DEN, who met the Master, had been taught by Thornton who got around. The Master went to LAX to visit Thornton's grave and pray.

We will be reviewing our post, like this one that quoted from several of Mahmud's entries: Only in California (left coast). The Master blessed Stanford with His presence. Also, He liked the lights of the Bay which are now even more glorious.
