Very briefly if I understand. What is perhaps more interesting is that Jamsetji got into selling cotton around the time of the American Civil War.

The Tata’s made their wealth being drug barons, i.e. selling Indian opium In China

I didn’t know that bit about Baha’i lore. Interesting.

No worries. Glad to have been of help.
