The Eternal Soul

This compilation on the theme of life after death is selected from the writings of Baha'u'llah, the founder of the Baha'i Faith, 'Abdu'l-Baha his son, and The Bab, his forerunner. The quotes are presented alongside illustrations by Corinne Randall. The true nature of the next life is beyond anything we can comprehend but the ineffable mysteries alluded to in these quotes from spiritual exaltation to tears of separation provide an endless fountain of inspiration for the artistic imagination. These writings provide consolation in suffering and bereavement. Abdu'l-Baha invites us to look forward to death as we may anticipate the goal of a journey and Baha'u'llah describes death as a messenger of joy.
