Temple site on Mount Carmel

One morning Leroy Ioas drove us to see the Temple site which is situated on the very top of Mt. Carmel about two miles from the Shrine of the Báb. The site is shaped like a peninsula overlooking water on three sides. The Guardian said the Shrine of the Báb is the heart of Carmel and the Temple will be the head. The Guardian said Bahá'u'lláh stood on this site and revealed the Tablet of Carmel, with such loud ringing tones that the nuns in the Carmelite nunnery situated further below could hear Him. This site is also near the cave of Elijah.
