those strangers, who, as has been said, were monkish spirits, used all
their endeavours to persuade them to live together in society, and not
separate and solitary. For spirits and angels dwell and live together
just as they had done in the world. Those who have dwelt together
collectively in the world, also dwell collectively together in the
other life; and those who have dwelt separated into households and
families, also dwell separated there. These spirits, whilst they had
lived as men on their earth, had dwelt separated, every household and
family, and thus every clan, apart, and therefore knew not what it was
to dwell together in society. Wherefore, when it was told them that
those strangers wanted to persuade them to this, in order that they
might reign and rule over them, and that they could not otherwise
subject them to themselves and make them slaves, they replied that
they were totally ignorant what was meant by reigning and ruling. That
they flee away at the bare idea of rule and domination, was manifest
to me from this circumstance, that one of them, who accompanied us on
the return journey, when I showed him the city in which I dwelt, at
the first sight of it fled away, and was seen no more.
174. I then conversed with the angels who were with me, concerning
dominion, that there are two kinds of dominion, one, of love towards
the neighbour, and the other, of the love of self; and that the
dominion of love towards the neighbour exists among those who dwell
separated into households, families, and clans: but the dominion of
the love of self among those who dwell together in society. Among
those who live separated into households, families, and clans, he who
is the father of the clan bears rule, and under him the fathers of
families, and under these the fathers of each household. He is called
the father of the clan, from whom the families are derived, and the
households of which the families are composed. But all these exercise
dominion from love, like the love of a father towards his children,
who teaches them how they ought to live, provides for their good, and
as far as possible gives to them of what is his own. It never enters
into his mind to subject them to himself, as subjects or as servants,
but he loves that they should obey him as sons obey their father. And
since this love, as is known, increases in descending, therefore the
father of a clan acts from a more inward love than the father himself
from whom the children are immediately descended. Such also is the
dominion in the heavens, because such is the Lord's dominion; for His
dominion is from Divine Love towards the whole human race. But the
dominion of the love of self, which is opposite to the dominion of
love towards the neighbour, began when man alienated himself from the
Lord; for in proportion as a man does not love and worship the
Lord, in that proportion he loves and worships himself, and in
that proportion also he loves the world. Then it was that, from the
necessity for self-preservation, clans consisting of families
and households gathered themselves into one body, and established
governments under various forms. For in proportion as that love
increased, in the same proportion evils of every kind, as, enmity,
envy, hatred, revenge, cruelty and deceit, increased with it, being
directed against all who opposed that love; for from the proprium, in
which those are who are in the love of self, nothing but evil springs,
inasmuch as man's proprium is nothing but evil, and, as the proprium
is evil, it is not receptive of good from heaven: therefore the love
of self, when it is the reigning love, is the father of all such
evils[ddd]; and that love is also of such a nature, that in proportion
as it is left without restraint, it rushes on until at length each one
who is of such a character wants to have dominion over all others in
the whole globe, and wishes to possess all the goods of the others;
nay, it is not even content with this, but would have dominion over
the whole heaven; as may appear from the case of modern Babylon. Such
then is the dominion of the love of self, from which the dominion of
love towards the neighbour differs as much as heaven does from hell.
But notwithstanding that the dominion of the love of self is such in
societies, or in kingdoms and empires, there nevertheless exists even
in these a dominion of love towards the neighbour among those who are
wise from faith in and love to God, for these love the neighbour. That
in the heavens also these dwell distinguished into clans, families,
and households, although in societies together, but according to
spiritual affinities which have relation to the good of love and the
truth of faith, will, by the Lord's Divine mercy, be stated elsewhere.
[Footnote ddd: Man's proprium, which he derives from his parents, is
nothing but dense evil, nos. 210, 215, 731, 874, 876, 987, 1047, 2307,
2308, 3518, 3701, 3812, 8480, 8550, 10283, 10284, 10286, 10731. Man's
proprium consists in loving himself more than God, and the world more
than heaven, and in holding his neighbour of no account in respect to
himself, except it be for the sake of himself, consequently [in making
much of] himself; thus it consists of the love of self and of the
world, nos. 694, 731, 4317, 5660. All evils flow from the love of self
and of the world, when these predominate, nos. 1307, 1308, 1321, 1594,
1691, 3413, 7255, 7376, 7488, 8318, 9335, 9348, 10038, 10742. These
evils are contempt of others, enmity, hatred, revenge, cruelty,
deceit, nos. 6667, 7372-7374, 9348, 10038, 10742. And from these evils
all falsity flows, nos. 1047, 10283, 10284, 10286.]
175. I afterwards questioned those spirits concerning various things
in the earth from which they were; and first, concerning their Divine
worship, and concerning revelation. Concerning the Divine worship,
they said that clans, with their families, meet together every
thirtieth day, in one place, and hear preaching; and that on these
occasions the preacher, from a pulpit raised a little from the
ground, teaches them the Divine truths which lead to the good of life.
Concerning revelation, they said that it is made early in the morning
in a state midway between sleeping and wakefulness, when they are in
an interior light not as yet interfered with by the bodily senses and
worldly things; that on such occasions they hear the angels of heaven
speaking concerning Divine truths, and a life according to them; and
that when they are quite awake, an angel in a white garment appears
to them by the bed, and then suddenly disappears from their sight; and
that by this they know that what they have heard is from heaven. Thus
a Divine vision is distinguished from a vision which is not Divine;
for in a vision which is not Divine no angel appears. They added,
that in such a manner revelations are made with their preachers, and
sometimes also with others.
176. On questioning them concerning their houses, they said that they
are lowly, built of wood, with a flat roof, having a cornice sloping
downwards; and that in front dwell the husband and wife, in the next
chamber the children, and the maid-servants and men-servants at the
back. With regard to food, they said that they drink milk with water;
and that they get the milk from cows, which are woolly like sheep.
Concerning their [mode of] life, they said that they go naked, and
that to them nakedness is not a matter of shame; also that their
habitual association is with those who are within their own families.
177. Concerning the sun of that earth, they related that it appears to
the inhabitants of a flame-colour; that the time of their year is two
hundred days, and that a day equals nine hours of our time, which they
could conclude from the length of the days of our Earth perceived in
me; and further, that they have a perpetual spring and summer, and
consequently that the fields are ever blooming, and the trees are ever
bearing fruit: the reason why the case is thus is, that their year
is so short, being equal to the time of only seventy-five days of our
year; and when the years are so short, the cold does not continue long
in winter nor the heat in summer, and the ground in consequence is in
a continual state of verdancy.
178. Concerning betrothals and marriages on that earth, they related
that a daughter, when she approaches a marriageable age, is kept at
home, nor is she allowed to go out till the day she is to be married;
and that she is then conducted to a certain connubial house, where
several other marriageable young women are also brought; that they are
there placed behind a screen, which reaches as high as the middle of
the body, so that they appear naked as to the breast and face; that
on such occasions the young men come there to choose for themselves a
wife; and that when a young man sees a young woman suitable for him,
and to whom his mind (_animus_) draws him, he takes her by the
hand. If she then follows him, he leads her to a house that has
been prepared, and she becomes his wife. For they see from the faces
whether they agree in disposition (_animus_), since on that earth
every one's face is an index of the disposition (_animus_), and
disguises and counterfeits nothing. In order that everything may be
done with decency and without lasciviousness, an old man is seated
behind the young virgins, and an elderly woman at their side, to
watch. There are many such places to which the young women are
conducted; and there are also stated times for the young men to make
their choice; for if they do not find a girl to suit them at one
place, they go to another; and if not at one time, they return again
at another. They said further, that a husband has only one wife, and
never more than one, because this is contrary to Divine order.
