"Receive, My beloved son, this habit of thy Order: This shall be to thee and to all Carmelites a privilege, that whosoever dies clothed in it shall not suffer eternal fire." (Our Lady to St Simon Stock)

The wearing of the brown habit or the habit in miniature; “the brown scapular” is the badge of those associated with the Carmelite Order and with a total consecration to JESUS through Mary. It was richly indulged by many Popes.
