Odyssey of the Soul, The

by Artemus Lamb

Our soul comes into being at the moment of conception and begins an eternal journey throughout the worlds of God.

Where are we going? When will we arrive at our destination? What will it be like? What experiences will happen to us on the way? What possible perils will we encounter on our road and what can we do to avoid them or, at least, soften them? What preparations can we make for our journey?

Drawing on the literature of the Bahá’í Faith, Artemus Lamb directly answers these age-old questions simply and directly. He charts the progress of the soul from its birth, through the physical world and to the end of its odyssey in the world of the spirit, looking particularly at:

• the nature of the soul
• the value of prayer and meditation
• the purpose of hardships and tests
• dreams as a proof of immortality
