“…it is very necessary that [regional] helpers work closely with the local helpers…
So do not be passive in the region; you need to visit groups and stimulate enthusiasm to do latihan and enthusiasm to know about the latihan and the Subud organisation…
…the way group helpers should work together is that you should always think of and be concerned with the state of the members – the members in each of those groups.
Without clear explanations, correct and proper explanations from a helper, members will get bored.
They will get bored with coming to latihan and bored with continuing as a member and doing latihan.
This is why it is so necessary for you to give explanations.
Because of that, Bapak asks that helpers serving the regions, as well as those in the groups − but this is particularly important for those in the region − should really be aware of and be in the habit of reading Bapak…”
