The phrase was originally a figurative reference to the veil which concealed the innermost sanctuary of the Temple in Jerusalem; it was later taken as referring to the mysterious division between the world of the living and the death. So saying beyond the veil often means that you have passed away to the other side. But it can also indicate a mysterious hidden destination, or even a state of mind.
