Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 88 88. With such a difference between the spiritual and the natural (as shown above, n. 83), nothing from the sun of the natural world, that is, nothing of its heat and light, nor anything pertaining to any earthly object, can pass over into the spiritual world. To the spiritual world the light of the natural world is thick darkness, and its heat is death. Nevertheless, the heat of the world can be v... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=88 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 218 218. That these ascending and descending degrees, also called prior and subsequent, likewise degrees of height or discrete degrees, are in their power in their outmost degree, may be confirmed by all those things that have been adduced in the preceding chapters as confirmations from objects of sense and perception. Here, however, I choose to confirm them only by the conatus, forces and motions in... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=218 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 245 245. The nature of the influx of light into the three degrees of life in man which belong to his mind, shall now be shown. The forms which are receptacles of heat and light, that is, of love and wisdom in man, and which (as was said) are in threefold order or of three degrees, are transparent from birth, transmitting spiritual light as crystal glass transmits natural light; consequently in respect... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=245 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 255 255. (5) The nature of the difference between the life of a natural man and the life of a beast. This difference will be particularly discussed in what follows, where Life will be treated of. Here it may be said only that the difference is that man has three degrees of mind, that is, three degrees of understanding and will, which degrees can be opened successively; and as these are transparent, ma... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=255 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 275 275. (3) The three degrees of the natural mind that is a form and image of hell, are opposite to the three degrees of the spiritual mind which is a form and image of heaven. It has been shown above that there are three degrees of the mind, called natural, spiritual, and celestial, and that the human mind, made up of these degrees, looks towards heaven, and turns itself about in that direction. Fro... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=275 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 285 285. THE LORD FROM ETERNITY, THAT IS, JEHOVAH, COULD NOT HAVE CREATED THE UNIVERSE AND ALL THINGS THEREOF UNLESS HE WERE A MAN. Those who have a corporeal natural idea of God as a Man, are wholly unable to comprehend how God as a Man could have created the universe and all things thereof; for they think within themselves, How can God as a Man wander all over the universe from space to space,... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=285 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 305 305. IN THE SUBSTANCES AND MATTERS OF WHICH LANDS ARE FORMED THERE IS NOTHING OF THE DIVINE IN ITSELF, BUT STILL THEY ARE FROM THE DIVINE IN ITSELF. From the origin of lands (treated of in the preceding chapter), it can be seen, that in their substances and matters there is nothing of the Divine in itself, but that they are devoid of all-that is Divine in itself. For they are, as was said, t... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=305 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 335 335. These things are called uses, because through man they have relation to the Lord; nevertheless, they must not be said to be uses from man for the Lord's sake, but from the Lord for man's sake, inasmuch as in the Lord all uses are infinitely one, but in man there are no uses except from the Lord; for man cannot do good from himself, but only from the Lord, and good is what is called use. The e... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=335 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 395 395. Since the soul in its very esse is love and wisdom, and these two in man are from the Lord, there are created in man two receptacles, which are also the abodes of the Lord in man; one for love, the other for wisdom, the one for love called the will, the other for wisdom called the understanding. Now since Love and Wisdom in the Lord are one distinctly (as may be seen above, n. 17-22), and Div... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=395 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 424 424. (19) Love, when defiled in the understanding and by it, becomes natural, sensual, and corporeal. Natural love separated from spiritual love is the opposite of spiritual love; because natural love is love of self and of the world, and spiritual love is love to the Lord and love to the neighbor; and love of self and the world looks downward and outward, and love to the Lord looks upward and inw... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=424 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 427 427. (22) It is the same with charity and faith and their conjunction as with the will and understanding and their conjunction. There are two loves, according to which the heavens are distinct, celestial love and spiritual love. Celestial love is love to the Lord, and spiritual love is love towards the neighbor. These loves are distinguished by this, that celestial love is the love of good, and sp... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=427 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 4 4. II. THE DIVINE LOVE AND WISDOM PROCEED FROM THE LORD AS ONE. This proposition also is evident from what was shown in the treatise THE DIVINE LOVE AND WISDOM, especially from these matters treated there: Being (Esse) and Existing (Existere) in the Lord are distinctly one (n. 14-77). In the Lord infinite things are distinctly one (n. 17-22). The Divine Love is of the Divine Wisdom, and the Divine... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=4 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 6 6. It is acknowledged by many that there is an only substance and that this is also called the first substance, the source of all things; but the nature of this substance is not known. It is believed to be so simple that there is nothing simpler; that it may be compared to a point with no dimension; and that from an infinite number of such points the forms of dimension came into being. This, howev... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=6 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 12 12. There is, however, a marriage of good and truth in the cause, and there is a marriage of good and truth from the cause in the effect. The marriage of good and truth in the cause is a marriage of the will and the understanding, that is, of love and wisdom. There is such a marriage in everything that a man wills and thinks, and in his consequent conclusions and purposes. This marriage enters int... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=12 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 19 19. VIII. THAT WHICH IS IN GOOD AND AT THE SAME TIME IN TRUTH HAS REALITY; AND THAT WHICH IS IN EVIL AND AT THE SAME TIME IN FALSITY HAS NO REALITY. It may be seen above (n. 11), that what is in good and at the same time in truth has reality; and from this it follows that what is evil and at the same time false has no reality. By having no reality is meant that it has no power and no spiritual lif... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=19 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 22 22. However, as many have broken and are breaking this marriage, especially by the separation of faith and charity, for faith is of truth and truth is of faith, and charity is of good and good is of charity, and as they thereby unite in themselves evil and falsity, and have thus become and continue to be opposed [to good and truth], nevertheless the Lord provides that they shall still be of servic... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=22 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 29 29. All conjunction in the spiritual world is effected by means of looking (inspectio). When anyone there is thinking of another from a desire to speak with him, the other immediately becomes present, and they see each other face to face. It is the same when anyone is thinking of another from an affection of love; but this affection brings about conjunction, while the other produces presence only.... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=29 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 42 42. V. THE MORE NEARLY A MAN IS CONJOINED TO THE LORD THE MORE DISTINCTLY DOES HE APPEAR TO HIMSELF TO BE MASTER OF HIMSELF [suus], AND YET THE MORE EVIDENTLY DOES HE RECOGNISE THAT HE IS THE LORD'S. There is an appearance that the more nearly anyone is conjoined to the Lord the less he is master of himself. This is the appearance with all the wicked, and also with those who from their religion be... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=42 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 50 50. Since angels and spirits are affections of love and thoughts thence derived, they are consequently not in space and time, but only in the appearance of them. To them there is an appearance of space and time according to the states of their affections and of the thoughts arising from these. When anyone therefore thinks of another from affection, intently desiring to see him or to speak with him... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=50
