  O my God!O Thou forgiver of sins, bestower of gifts,
dispeller of afflictions!
  Verily, I beseech Thee to forgive the sins of such as have
abandoned the physical garment and have ascended to the
spiritual world.
  O my Lord! Purify them from trespasses, dispel their
sorrows, and change their darkness into light. Cause them to
enter the garden of happiness, cleanse them with the most
pure water, and grant them to behold thy splendors on the
loftiest mount.

 Death proffereth unto every confident believer the cup that
is life indeed. It bestoweth joy, and is the bearer of gladness.
It conferreth the gift of everlasting life.
 
 - Baha'u'lláh

                                                    5
  And now concerning thy question regarding the soul of
man after death. 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. It will manifest the signs of God and His
attributes, and will reveal His loving kindness and bounty.

Any thing with the power to make you laugh
 
over thirty years later isn’t a waste of time.
 
I think something like that is very close to immortality.

  Concerning the future life what Baha'u'lláh says is that the
soul will continue to ascend through many worlds. What
those worlds are and what their nature is we cannot know.
The same way that the child in the matrix cannot know this
world so we cannot know what the other world is going to
be.

individual believer, 1932: National Bahá'í review, No. 92, p.6.

 The progress of the soul does not come to an end with
death. It rather starts along a new line. Baha'u'lláh teaches
that great and far-reaching possibilities await the soul in the
other world. Spiritual progress in that realm is infinite, and
no man, while on this earth, can visualize its full extent.

...the souls of the children of the Kingdom, after their
separation from the body, ascend unto the realm of
everlasting life. But if ye ask as to the place, know ye that the
world of existence is a single world, although its stations are
various and distinct. For example, the mineral life occupieth
its own plane, but a mineral entity is without any awareness
at all of the vegetable kingdom.
 
 - 'Abdu'l-Bahá, Selections from the Writings of 'Abdu'l-Bahá,
pp. 193-194
 
                                                    11
 
 
“The body is mortal, but the person dwelling
in the body is immortal and immeasurable.”
-Bhagavad Gita
 
                                                    12
 
 
All creation, whether of the mineral, vegetable or
animal kingdom, is compelled to obey the law of
motion; it must either ascend or descend. But with
the human soul, there is no decline. Its only
movement is towards perfection; growth and
progress alone constitute the motion of the soul.

                                                    14
 
 
 
In all religions the belief exists that the soul survives the
death of the body. Intercessions are sent up for the beloved
dead, prayers are said for their progress and for the
forgiveness of their sins. If the soul perished with the body
all this would have no meaning. Further, if it were not
possible for the soul to advance towards perfection after it
had been released from the body, of what avail are all these
loving prayers, of devotion?

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all
the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house
of the 
LORD
 for ever.
