The soul not only continues to live after the physical death of the human body, but is, in fact, immortal. Bahá'u'lláh wrote:  
"Know thou of a truth that the soul, after its separation from the body, will continue to progress until it attaineth the presence of God, in a state and condition which neither the revolution of ages and centuries, nor the changes and chances of this world, can alter. It will endure as long as the Kingdom of God, His sovereignty, His dominion and power will endure."[http://reference.bahai.org/en/t/b/GWB/gwb-81.html#gr1}
