But as it continually desires to come into manifest being it longs for and procures truths in order to do so, for truths are the agency of its nourishment and formation. This is the reason why a man loves truths in the same proportion that he is in go... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=lf§ion=37 Teachings about Life for the New Jerusalem: Drawn from the Ten Commandments 95 95.

For, as already said, the pleasures that are in the bodily or outermost things of man have their origin in delights that are successively more and more interior.

It is in everyone's power very well to know that no life is possible without some love, and that no joy is possible except that which flows from love.
