Aaru is not a sort of purgatory in the general sense that we think of the word. It is more of a parallel world where dead souls go to have eternal life.
Also, clearly at least some number of the people roaming the island are dead, which makes me really hope that the guitar Hurley was carrying means we get to see Charlie again.
I wonder if the people assumedly stuck in 2007, who logically should have ended up in 1977, were "dead". Maybe Frank and Sun "died" in the plane crash but were alive on the island. I get the feeling to come back to life, so to speak, you have to have been to the island before. I know this doesn't explain Ben but I think he might, for some reason, be an exception to the rule.
And yes, I think about Lost way too much.
