How to deal with Baha’i Excommunication

TO BE PATIENT AND BE STEADFAST

Remember the tyrants will never persist for long. He has to relent some or the other day. Keep protesting, unfurl the flag of discussion and dialogue, fold on the silence lips, asks questions, patience also means taking efforts. He has to bow down to the pressure of other community members who may be questioning and start keeping watch over his each and every deed. It is worth mentioning that steadfastness is the traits of great men.

TO BE PROACTIVE

If Circumstances permit, one should complain to the Authorities concerned as nowadays almost every nation has Anti- excommunication Laws or Law of Religious Freedom embodied in their constitution to safeguard the democratic rights of the people. This will act further deterrent to the Errant and will render him harmless and toothless in the eyes of the Community.

TO BE INDEPENDENT

If matter is because of difference of opinion, one should if feasible become independent and set up his own society with the help of people of similar thoughts and it should be a forward looking organization and should never involved in slander or slogan shouting. This will act further deterrent to the Parent organization that may be forced to compromise with them and May eventually welcome them back in to the Mainstream Community.

For the benefit of readers, I have mentioned herein the narratives of few of those excommunicated ones who fought back and lived the life of dignity. Off course the list is endless.
