Additional Commentary - During one occasion when Bahá'u'lláh had pitched His tent on the slopes of Mt. Carmel, He sat in this cypress grove and pointed out to 'Abdu'l-Bahá the spot on which a befitting mausoleum should be built to house the remains of the Báb. "A decade went by before 'Abdu'l-Bahá could carry out that command. The sons of Bahá'u'lláh, who had strayed away from His Covenant, strove hard to block the enterprise." - The Báb by H.M. Balyuzi, p.192.
