More quotes by Emanuel Swedenborg

Emanuel Swedenborg
Wherefore the brain must be looked upon as the universal and general sensory and at the same time as the universal and general motory organ of the body and finally as the universal and general laboratory of the animal spirits and the blood or of the essential juices of life.
Emanuel Swedenborg
Every man is received in heaven who receives heaven in himself while in the world, and he is excluded who does not.
Emanuel Swedenborg
The more one is absorbed in so-called philosophy, the greater one's delusion and blindness.
Emanuel Swedenborg
What is true is true, and what is false is false.
Emanuel Swedenborg
Faith is knowing and thinking those truths: charity is willing and doing them.
Emanuel Swedenborg

Marriages on earth--because they are the seminaries of the human race and of the angels of heaven also because, likewise, they proceed from a spiritual origin, that is, from the marriage of good and truth and since, in addition, the Lord's divine proceeding principally flows into conjugal love--are most holy in the estimation of the angels.
Emanuel Swedenborg

Emanuel Swedenborg
Times of happiness, bliss, and sheer delight intensify as the higher levels of our minds are opened within us One our life on earth is over, these levels keep rising forever.
Emanuel Swedenborg
Justice is following the divine design in all that one does, and bringing back into the divine design things that have fallen away from that design. Justice is the divine design itself.
Emanuel Swedenborg
In a word, to grow old in heaven is to grow young.
Emanuel Swedenborg
All religion relates to life, and the life of religion is to do good
Emanuel Swedenborg
We all have spirits present with us who are feeling the way we are.
Emanuel Swedenborg
The activity of love and faith is what makes heaven.
Emanuel Swedenborg
True wisdom is seeing what is beneficial to your eternal life, and managing your life according to that. You do this when you not only know these things and grasp them with your understanding, but also will and do them.
Emanuel Swedenborg
Self-love and the love of the world constitute hell.
Emanuel Swedenborg
To will and not to do when there is opportunity is in reality not to will and to love what is good and not to do it, when it is possible, is in reality not to love it
Emanuel Swedenborg
Man was so created by the Lord as to be able while living in the body to speak with spirits and angels, as in fact was done in the most ancient times for, being a spirit clothed with a body, he is one with them
