A contemporary Baha'i architect responded to my email as follows: What you say sounds logical. Actually one might think and research for the reasons why the construction of these buildings was postponed. I mean how come that non of the buildings were built. It is clear that the design of the buildings expresses the understanding of the designer from the Faith. The similarities that the designs of these two temples have to the Islamic temples might be considered as an indicative element. The use of minarets is particularly significant. One might bring to mind that the temple is Eshqabad also had minarets. It is interesting how the flow of the History came to find that building demolished. Imagine the temple in Tehran was built. Or the one in Haifa. It seems, once again, there is wisdom in everything. A mighty hand leads the events! ---------- You are subscribed to Baha'i Studies as: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Baha'i Studies is available through the following: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://list.jccc.net/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=bahai-st news://list.jccc.net/bahai-st http://www.escribe.com/religion/bahaist (public) http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED] (public)
