Heaven and Its Wonders and Hell - From Things Heard and Seen 100 100. But correspondence applies far more widely than to man; for there is a correspondence of the heavens with one another. To the third or inmost heaven the second or middle heaven corresponds, and to the second or middle heaven the first or outmost heaven corresponds, and this corresponds to the bodily forms in man called his members, organs, and viscera. Thus it is the bodily part of man in whi... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=hh§ion=100 Heaven and Its Wonders and Hell - From Things Heard and Seen 102 102. Angels are amazed when they hear that there are men who attribute all things to nature and nothing to the Divine, and who also believe that their body, into which so many wonders of heaven are gathered, is a product of nature. Still more are they amazed that the rational part of man is believed to be from nature, when, if men will but lift their minds a little, they can see that such effects... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=hh§ion=102 Heaven and Its Wonders and Hell - From Things Heard and Seen 112 112. How conjunction of heaven with the world is effected by means of correspondences shall also be told in a few words. The Lord's kingdom is a kingdom of ends, which are uses; or what is the same thing, a kingdom of uses which are ends. For this reason the universe has been so created and formed by the Divine that uses may be every where clothed in such a way as to be presented in act, or in eff... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=hh§ion=112 Heaven and Its Wonders and Hell - From Things Heard and Seen 115 115. I have been taught from heaven that the most ancient men on our earth, who were celestial men, thought from correspondences themselves, the natural things of the world before their eyes serving them as means of thinking in this way; and that they could be in fellowship with angels and talk with them because they so thought, and that thus through them heaven was conjoined to the world. For thi... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=hh§ion=115 Heaven and Its Wonders and Hell - From Things Heard and Seen 206 206. In each heaven there is such a form, and in accordance with it the angels have communication and extension of thoughts and affections, and thus in accordance with it they have intelligence and wisdom. But the communication of one heaven with another is different, that is, of the third or inmost with the second or middle, and of this with the first or outmost. But the communication between the... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=hh§ion=206 Heaven and Its Wonders and Hell - From Things Heard and Seen 210 210. The thoughts and affections as well as the speech of the angels of the inmost heaven are never perceived in the middle heaven, because they so transcend what is there. But when it pleases the Lord there is seen in the lower heavens from that source something like a flame, and from the thoughts and affections in the middle heaven there is seen in the outmost heaven something luminous, and some... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=hh§ion=210 Heaven and Its Wonders and Hell - From Things Heard and Seen 211 211. From all this it can be seen what the form of heaven is, namely, that it is the most perfect of all in the inmost heaven; in the middle heaven it is also perfect, but in a lower degree, and in the outmost heaven in a degree still lower; also that the form of one heaven has its permanent existence from another by means of influx from the Lord. But what communication by influx is cannot be unde... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=hh§ion=211 Heaven and Its Wonders and Hell - From Things Heard and Seen 227 227. The doctrines with which their preachings are in accord all look to life as their end, and none look to faith separate from the life. The doctrine of the inmost heaven is more full of wisdom than the doctrine of the middle heaven, and this more full of intelligence than the doctrine of the outmost heaven; for in each heaven the doctrines are adapted to the perceptions of the angels. The essen... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=hh§ion=227 Heaven and Its Wonders and Hell - From Things Heard and Seen 240 240. Because the speech of angels proceeds directly from their affection, and the ideas of their thought are the various forms into which their general affection is distributed (see above, n. 236), angels can express in a moment what a man cannot express in half an hour; also they can set forth in a few words what has been expressed in writing on many pages; and this, too, has been proved to me by... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=hh§ion=240 Heaven and Its Wonders and Hell - From Things Heard and Seen 295 295. The spirits associated with man are such as he himself is in respect to his affection or love; but the Lord associates good spirits with him, while evil spirits are invited by the man himself. The spirits with man, however, are changed in accordance with the changes of his affections; thus there are some spirits that are with him in early childhood, others in boyhood, others in youth and manh... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=hh§ion=295 Heaven and Its Wonders and Hell - From Things Heard and Seen 305 305. But man has severed this connection with heaven by turning his exteriors away from heaven, and turning them to the world and to self by means of his love of self and of the world, thereby so withdrawing himself that he no longer serves as a basis and foundation for heaven; therefore the Lord has provided a medium to serve in place of this base and foundation for heaven, and also for the conju... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=hh§ion=305 Heaven and Its Wonders and Hell - From Things Heard and Seen 345 345. What the difference is between those who die in childhood and those who die in mature life shall also be told. Those dying in mature life have a plane acquired from the earthly and material world, and this they carry with them. This plane is their memory and its bodily natural affection. This remains fixed and becomes quiescent, but still serves their thought after death as an outmost plane,... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=hh§ion=345 Heaven and Its Wonders and Hell - From Things Heard and Seen 353 353. False intelligence and wisdom is all intelligence and wisdom that is separated from the acknowledgment of the Divine; for all such as do not acknowledge the Divine, but acknowledge nature in the place of the Divine, think from the bodily-sensual, and are merely sensual, however highly they may be esteemed in the world for their accomplishments and learning.# For their learning does not ascend... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=hh§ion=353 Heaven and Its Wonders and Hell - From Things Heard and Seen 356 356. But in respect to those that have acquired intelligence and wisdom through knowledge and science, who are such as have applied all things to the use of life, and have also acknowledged the Divine, loved the Word, and lived a spiritual moral life (of which above, n. 319), to such the sciences have served as a means of becoming wise, and also of corroborating the things pertaining to faith. The... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=hh§ion=356 Heaven and Its Wonders and Hell - From Things Heard and Seen 360 360. I have spoken with some after death who, while they lived in the world, renounced the world and gave themselves up to an almost solitary life, in order that by an abstraction of the thoughts from worldly things they might have opportunity for pious meditations, believing that thus they might enter the way to heaven. But these in the other life are of a sad disposition; they despise others who... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=hh§ion=360 Heaven and Its Wonders and Hell - From Things Heard and Seen 410 410. When certain spirits wished to know what heavenly joy is they were allowed to feel it to such a degree that they could no longer bear it; and yet it was not angelic joy; it was scarcely in the least degree angelic, as I was permitted to perceive by sharing it, but was so slight as to be almost frigid; nevertheless they called it most heavenly, because to them it was an inmost joy. From this i... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=hh§ion=410 Heaven and Its Wonders and Hell - From Things Heard and Seen 480 480. (ii) Man after death continues to eternity such as his will or ruling love is. This, too, has been confirmed by abundant experience. I have been permitted to talk with some who lived two thousand years ago, and whose lives are described in history, and thus known; and I found that they continued to be just the same as they were described, that is, in respect to the love out of which and accor... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=hh§ion=480 Heaven and Its Wonders and Hell - From Things Heard and Seen 518 518. There were some spirits who had convinced themselves, by thinking about it in the world, that they would go to heaven and be received before others because of their learning and their great knowledge of the Word and of the doctrines of their churches, believing that they were wise in consequence, and were such as are meant by those of whom it is said that They shall shine a... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=hh§ion=518 Heaven and Its Wonders and Hell - From Things Heard and Seen 542 542. As hell is divided into the same number of societies as heaven, there are as many hells as there are societies of heaven; for as each society of heaven is a heaven in smaller form (see above, n. 51-58), so each society in hell is a hell in smaller form. As in general there are three heavens, so in general there are three hells, a lowest, which is opposite to the inmost or third heaven, a midd... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=hh§ion=542 The Last Judgment and Babylon Destroyed, Showing That at This Day All the Predictions of the Book of Revelation Have Been Fulfilled - From Things Heard and Seen 58 58. III. Where their habitations in the spiritual world have hitherto been. It was said above (n. 48), that all the nations and peoples in the spiritual world were seen to be as follows: collected in the middle appeared those who are called the Reformed; around this middle, those of the Papal religion; the Mohammedans, beyond them; and lastly the various Gentiles. Hence it may appear that the Papi... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=lj§ion=58
