DIVINE WISDOM.

The numbers in this index refer to pages.

Abdomen.-Respiratory movements extend to the abdomen (11).

Act.-Affection first becomes something when it is in act (17). What a man
wills but cannot do, comes into interior act in his spirit (34). In
heaven all acts are sane; in hell, insane (34). Volition and act are
one in the spiritual world (34, 35). To will and not to act impossible
there (35).

Activities. All bodily activities accomplished by co-operation of heart and
lungs (61).

Affection.-Is love in its essence (16). Its ends, uses (16). May be compared
to the blood-vessels (16). Is man's spirit (16). Is nothing unless put
to use and action (17). Affection for use the life of man and the

in heaven (21). Affection for use in selfish people is selfish (24). Life
of the face of an angel according to his affection for use (24). Affec-
tion not found apart from its use (29). Affection is the man himself
and use is its effect, and the two make one (29). The quality of a man
according to the quality of his use and affection (24). Unless use be a
man's affection he is not of sound mind (27). Natural affection may
incite to very excellent uses (30). Spiritual affection for use both ex-
ternal and internal (30). In hell spirits work from necessity, not from
affection (27). Every one judged from his affection (28). Speech
from external affection (28). Thought is from affection, but thought
and not affection is perceived (28). Speech belongs to thought, but its
sound to affection (29). The will is man's affection because the recepta-
cle of his love (n. 31). Spiritual affection not acquired by faith alone,
but by shunning evils as sins (31). Man exists from his affection not
from his thought (33). Animals kept warm by the life of their souls
which is affection (36).

Affections.-Are the continuations and derivations of love (16, 31). Heaven
and hell divided into societies according to affections (16). As many
affections as uses; infinite number (17). Natural affections are the
souls of animals. Uses of affections the souls of vegetables (18). Af
fections of love the wisdom of angels; uses of affections make their
life (19). Mutual and reciprocal love springs from affections for use
(21). All affections have a two-fold origin, the sun of heaven and the
natural sun (25). A man thinks, speaks, acts from his affections after
the removal of his external thought (26). Every man an affection, the
spirits of hell affections for evil, the
Affections are subordinate loves (27).
the heavenly heat and light (29).

angels affections for good (27).
Affections for uses disclosed by
Affections for uses two kinds, nat-

ural and spiritual; one looks to self and the world, the other to the Lord
and the neighbor (29). A spiritual-rational man may know from his
activities what his affections are (33). Living souls are affections (37).
Animals are affections covered with a correspondential body (37, 104).
Pulse varies with the affections (59). All affections belong to the love,
thus to the will (59). In the spiritual world substances vary according
to the angel's affections (73). Variations in tone correspond to varia-
tions in affections (81).

Angel. Only recipient of life (7). Created and finite (9). Would be con-

sumed by direct reception of Divine love, therefore the sun of heaven

jured by the intensity of the Divine love (8). The Divine goes forth
adapted to each (9). Can think apart from space (8). The Lord pres-
ent in each (9). Can comprehend the human soul (10). Are men
just like men in the world (14). Every angel an affection and a use
(18). The affection of love makes the wisdom of the angel, and the
uses of the affections make their life (19). Are men according to
uses (22). The face of an angel according to his use and the life of
his face according to his affection for that use (24). See each other as
men but think of each other as uses (24). Are good affections (27).
Those who have loved and performed uses become angels (27). An-
gels and men will and think from love (35). In heaven the Divine
wisdom appears before the angels as light (42). Divided into spiritual
or celestial kingdom according as they receive more heat, which is love,
or light, which is wisdom (43). Spiritual angels not called wise but
intelligent, because one is wise only so far as his love makes one with
his understanding (43). With angels there is light in equal degree
with wisdom (44). Angels pictured the relation of the heart and
lungs (62). Čelestial angels have relation to the heart of heaven;
spiritual angels to the lungs (64). When they appear to men are seen
as men (64). Have pulse and respiration (64). Their thought, affec-
tion, speech and writing incomprehensible to the natural man (69).
All angels and spirits were born in the world as men (70). Angels
derive their ability to live permanently to eternity from a medium be-
tween the spiritual and the natural (73). If angels had been created
in the spiritual world they would not have been permanent, because
spiritual substance varies according to the affection of the angels (73).

from the inmosts of nature (73). Are clothed according to the truths
of their wisdom (93). Are men and live like men, but are above nature

Body.-Each part has its use, and all are made one by their common use; the action of the lungs produces reciprocal movements in all parts of the body (10, 59).
