You also ask about the eventual victory of spirituality in
the Baha’i age. It is certain that spirituality will overcome materiality and
that the divine will have the victory over the human; it is also true that by
divine education souls in every condition of existence will be elevated, except
those that are blind, deaf, dumb and dead. How can such souls comprehend the
light? The sun lighteth up all the dark world, but the blind man hath no
portion in its brilliancy; the cloud of mercy poureth forth streams of water,
but the sterile land will never produce plants and flowers. - ‘Abdu’l-Baha (‘Tablets of ‘Abdu’l-Baha, vol. 2)
