| abstract note | Discusses evolution of different styles of teaching the Bahá'í Faith, particularly as the community moved from focus on reaching a few of the educated elite, to reaching large numbers of poorer people in the scheduled castes. The inclusiveness of conversion, and the downplaying of a need to remove oneself from the Hindu background, permits large numbers of converts and the long-term development of commitment to Bahá'í teachings. |
