Re: Manifestations only from the east?

[MATTHEW MENGE]

I was wondering if perhaps the next Manifestation would come from China.  The Ode of 'Ama makes reference to Cathay and it is often the earlier Tablets that are most prophetic.   Best Regards,   Matt     ----- Original Message ----- From: David Friedman Sent: Saturday, September 06, 2003 9:23 PM To: Baha'i Studies Subject: Re: Manifestations only from the east?   >Perhaps the next manifestation will come from California (this speculation >is only half tongue-in->cheek)?  In Tablets of the Divine Plan Abdu'l-Baha >compares it to the Holy Land (quote below). Yesterday I happened to see reference to a Mount Carmel in Illinois.  Wouldn't it be something if the next Manifestation lived right there?  Does anyone know more about this place and if it is close to the Temple?  Neither of my parents had heard of it, despite growing up in Illinois.  And how is "Carmel" pronounced?  I assume it's like the food, and not pronounced the same as the Mount Carmel in Israel.  Are there any other Mount Carmel's I should know about?
