Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 41 41. But as this is contrary to appearance, it may seem not to merit belief unless it be proved; and since it can be proved only by such things as man can apprehend by his bodily senses, by these it shall be proved. Man has five external senses, called touch, taste, smell, hearing and sight. The subject of touch is the skin by which man is enveloped, the very substance and form of the skin causing... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=41 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 46 46. From all this it can be seen how sensually (that is, how much from the bodily senses and their blindness in spiritual matters) do those think who maintain that nature is from herself. They think from the eye, and are not able to think from the understanding. Thought from the eye closes the understanding, but thought from the understanding opens the eye. Such persons cannot think at all of Esse... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=46 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 144 144. Since the love of rule springing from love of self is wholly opposed to love to the Lord, the spirits who are in that love of rule turn the face backwards from the Lord, and therefore look with their eyes to the western quarters of the spiritual world; and being thus bodily in a reversed position, they have the east behind them, the north at their right, and the south at their left. They have... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=144 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 162 162. From all this the folly of those who ascribe all things to nature can be seen. Those who have confirmed themselves in favor of nature have brought such a state on themselves that they are no longer willing to raise the mind above nature; consequently their minds are shut above and opened below. Man thus becomes sensual-natural, that is, spiritually dead; and because he then thinks only from s... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=162 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 215 215. That the outmost in each series, that is to say, use, action, work, and doing, is the complex and containant of all things prior, has not yet been known. There seems to be nothing more in use, in action, in work, and in doing than such as there is in movement; yet all things prior are actually present in these, and so fully that nothing is lacking. They are contained therein like wine in its... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=215 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 249 249. There are three kinds of natural men; the first consists of those who know nothing of the Divine precepts; the second, of those who know that there are such precepts, but give no thought to a life according to them; and the third, of those who despise and deny these precepts. In respect to the first class, which consists of those who know nothing of the Divine precepts, since they cannot be t... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=249 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 257 257. The effects are these: (1) The natural mind may be raised up to the light of heaven in which angels are, and may perceive naturally, thus not so fully, what the angels perceive spiritually; nevertheless, man's natural mind cannot be raised into angelic light itself. (2) By means of his natural mind, raised to the light of heaven, man can think, yea, speak with angels; but the thought and spee... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=257 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 276 276. (4) The natural mind that is a hell is in complete opposition to the spiritual mind which is a heaven. When the loves are opposite all things of perception become opposites; for out of love, which makes the very life of man, everything else flows like streams from their source; the things not from that source separating in the natural mind from those which are. Whatever springs from man's rei... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=276 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 278 278. The acts of the body when viewed by the eye, appear thus simple and uniform, as seeds, fruits, and eggs do, in external form, or as nuts and almonds in their shells, yet they contain in themselves all the prior things from which they exist, because every outmost is sheathed about and is thereby rendered distinct from things prior. So is each degree enveloped by a covering, and thereby separat... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=278 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 316 316. In the forms of uses of the animal kingdom there is a similar image of creation, in that the animal body, which is the outmost thereof, is formed by a seed deposited in a womb or an ovum, and this body, when mature, brings forth new seed. This progression is similar to the progression of the forms of uses of the vegetable kingdom: seeds are the beginnings; the womb or the ovum is like the gro... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=316 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 319 319. ALL THINGS OF THE CREATED UNIVERSE, VIEWED IN REFERENCE TO USES REPRESENT MAN IN AN IMAGE, AND THIS TESTIFIES THAT GOD IS A MAN By the ancients man was called a microcosm, from his representing the macrocosm, that is, the universe in its whole complex; but it is not known at the present day why man was so called by the ancients, for no more of the universe or macrocosm is manifest in hi... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=319 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 324 324. That this is so has been abundantly confirmed in the Arcana Coelestia, also in the work Heaven and Hell, and occasionally in the preceding pages where correspondence is treated of. It has been there shown also that nothing is to be found in the created universe which has not a correspondence with something in man, not only with his affections and their thoughts, but also with his bodily organ... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=324 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 333 333. Uses for receiving the spiritual from the Lord, are all things that belong to religion and to worship therefrom; thus all things that teach the acknowledgment and knowledge of God and the knowledge and acknowledgment of good and truth and thus eternal life, which are acquired in the same way as other learning, from parents, teachers, discourses, and books, and especially by applying to life w... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=333 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 351 351. Those who believe in a Divine operation in all the details of nature, are able by very many things they see in nature to confirm themselves in favor of the Divine, as fully as others confirm themselves in favor of nature, yea, more fully. For those who confirm themselves in favor of the Divine give attention to the wonders which are displayed in the production both of plants and animals. In t... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=351 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 361 361. That every man has these two, will and understanding, and that they are distinct from each other, as love and wisdom are distinct, is known and is not known in the world. It is known from common perception, but it is not known from thought and still less from thought when written out; for who does not know from common perception that the will and the understanding are two distinct things in m... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=361 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 385 385. (5) By means of this correspondence many arcana relating to the will and understanding, thus also to love and wisdom, may be disclosed. In the world it is scarcely known what the will is or what love is, for the reason that man is not able, by himself, to love, and from love to will, although he is able as it were by himself to exercise intelligence and thought; just as he is not able of hims... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=385 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 386 386. (6) Man's mind is his spirit, and the spirit is the man, while the body is an external by means of which the mind or spirit feels and acts in its world. That man's mind is his spirit, and that the spirit is the man, can hardly enter the faith of those who have supposed the spirit to be wind, and the soul to be an airy something like breath breathed out from the lungs. For they say, How can th... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=386 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 408 408. (10) Love or the will introduces wisdom or the understanding into all things of its house. By the house of love or the will is meant the whole man as to all things of his mind; and as these correspond to all things of the body (as shown above), by the house is meant also the whole man as to all things of his body, called members, organs, and viscera. That the lungs are introduced into all the... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=408 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 38 38. No man who is in the delights of the lusts of evil can know anything of the delights of the affections of good in which the angelic heaven is; for these two kinds of delight are absolutely opposite to each other in internals, and consequently are opposite interiorly in externals, although indeed they differ but little on the surface. For every love has its own delights; even the love of evil h... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=38 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 75 75. It is otherwise with man: he has not only the affection of natural love but also the affection of spiritual love and the affection of celestial love. For the human mind is of three degrees, as was shown in Part Three of the treatise THE DIVINE LOVE AND WISDOM. Consequently, a man can be raised up from natural knowledge into spiritual understanding and thence into celestial wisdom; and from the... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=75
