…the centre of the Sun of Truth is in the supernal world—the
Kingdom of God. Those souls who are pure and unsullied, upon the dissolution of
their elemental frames, hasten away to the world of God, and that world is
within this world. The people of this world, however, are unaware of that
world, and are even as the mineral and the vegetable that know nothing of the
world of the animal and the world of man.
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha (‘Selections from the
Writings of ‘Abdu’l-Baha’)
