Concerning thy question whether all the souls enjoy Eternal
Life: Know thou, those souls partake of the Eternal Life in whom the Spirit of
Life is breathed from the Presence of God; and all beside them are dead,
without life as Christ has explained (this matter) in the texts of the Gospel.
Any person whose insight is opened by God, sees the souls in their stations
after the disintegration of the bodies. Verily, they are living and are
subsisting before their Lord and see also the dead souls submerged in the gulfs
of mortality.
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha (Star of the West, vol. 5, no. 19, March 2, 1915)
