The difference and distinction will naturally become
realized between all men after their departure from this mortal world. But this
(distinction) is not in respect to place, but it is in respect to the soul and
conscience. For the Kingdom of God is sanctified (or free) from time and place;
it is another world and another universe. But the holy souls are promised the
gift of intercession.
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha (‘Tablets of ‘Abdu’l-Baha, vol. 1’)
