Shrine of 'Abdu'l-Baha

This year is historic because (i) it marks the Bicentenary of the birth of the Bab, and (ii) The Universal House of Justice has announced its plans to build the Shrine of the ‘Abdu’l-Baha near the Ridvan Gardens, and appointed its architect, Mr Hossein Amanat. There are references to the Shrine of the Master on p. 277 of "Journey to a Mountain", footnote 76., and in "Coronation on Carmel" see pp 20-21 and footnotes 23 to 3 and in “Coronation on Carmel” (Chapter 3, pp 20-21.
