Heaven and Hell

But the paradise and hell of existence are found in all the worlds of God, whether in this world or in the spiritual heavenly worlds.

‘Abdu’l-Bahá, Bahá’í World Faith, p. 323

Think ye of love and good fellowship as the delights of heaven, think ye of hostility and hatred as the torments of hell.

‘Abdu’l-Bahá, Selections from the Writings of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, p. 244

Heaven and hell are conditions within our own beings.
