3887# 在天堂（或“至大之人”）中有两大王国：属天王国和属灵王国。属天王国由属天天使组成，这他们生前活在对主的仁爱中，因此具有一切智慧，因为他们比其他天使更亲近主，因此也比其他天使更具有平安与纯真的状态。他们在其他天使眼中显现如婴儿，因为平安与纯真的状态产生这种显现。在那里的一切事物在他们面前都仿佛是活的，因为直接从主而来的一切都是活的。这就是属天王国。
另一个国度称为属灵王国，是由称为属灵天使的天使们构成的，他们生前处于对邻舍的仁义之善中。他们的生命喜乐在于能够无偿地为他人行善，能够为他人行善本身就是他们的报酬。他们越是想要并渴望这样做，就越具有更大的聪明和幸福，因为在来世，每个人都按照他出于意愿情感所提供的功用，从主那里获得聪明和幸福。这就是属灵王国。
【2】在主的属天王国中的人，都属于心脏的区域；在属灵王国中的人，都属于肺部的区域。从属天王国流入属灵王国的关系，类似于心脏流入肺部的关系，也类似于心脏的一切事物流入肺部事物的关系。因为心脏通过血管在整个身体及其各个部分中运行，肺部也通过呼吸在其各个部分中运行，因此在身体各处都有如同心脏流入肺部的关系，但是根据各处的形式和状态而有所不同。由此产生一切感觉，以及一切属于身体本身的行动。这一点从胚胎和新生婴儿也可以证实：在他们的肺部打开之前，在一个流入另一个的关系建立之前，他们无法有任何身体感觉，也无法有任何自主行动。
在灵性世界中的情况也是类似的，但有所区别，因为在那里不是肉体的和自然的事物，而是属天的和属灵的事物，也就是仁爱的良善与信仰的良善，因此他们的心跳运动是根据仁爱的状态，呼吸运动是根据信仰的状态；一个流入另一个产生属灵的感知和属灵的行动。这些对人来说可能显得很奇特，因为对于仁爱的良善与信仰的真理，人们只有抽象的概念，认为它们没有产生任何效果的能力，然而事实恰恰相反，即一切感知和感觉，以及人里面的一切能力和行动都是由此而来。
3887.天堂或大人有两个国度，一个被称为属天的，一个被称为属灵的。属天国度由所谓的属天天使构成，这些天使具有对主之爱，因而具有一切智慧。因为与其他所有人相比，他们更居于主里面，从而更体验到平安和纯真的状态。在其他人看来，他们就像小孩子，因为平安和纯真的状态给予他们这种表象。那里的一切事物在他们眼里可以说都是活的，因为直接出自主的事物都是活的。这就是属天国度。另一个国度被称为属灵的，该国度由所谓的属灵天使构成，这些天使具有对邻之仁的良善。他们将生命的快乐置于以下事实：他们能向他人行善而无需回报。对他们来说，能允许他们行善本身就是一种回报。他们越这样意愿和渴望，就越体验到聪明和幸福，因为在来世，主照着每个人出于意愿的情感而发挥的功用赐下聪明和幸福。这就是属灵国度。
主的属天国度的居民全都属于心脏区域，而其属灵国度的居民则全都属于肺脏区域。从属天国度进入属灵国度的流注类似于心脏进入肺脏的流注，也类似于属心脏的一切事物进入属肺脏的一切事物的流注。因为心脏通过血管在全身及其各个部位进行掌控，而肺脏则通过呼吸在全身各个部位进行掌控。所以，全身各处可以说都有一个心脏进入肺脏的流注，不过，这种流注取决于那里的形态，还取决于状态。由此产生适合身体的一切感觉，以及一切活动。这一点从胎儿和新生婴孩的情形可以得到证明。肺脏被打开，随之一种流注从心脏进入肺脏之前，它们没有任何身体感觉，也没有任何自发行为。灵界也有类似情形，不同之处在于，那里没有肉体和属世之物，只有属天和属灵之物，就是爱之良善和信之真理。因此，他们的心脏运动取决于爱的状态，呼吸运动则取决于信的状态。这一个进入那一个的流注使他们拥有属灵的感觉和属灵的行为。这些观念在世人看来似乎自相矛盾，因为他对爱之良善或信之真理没有其它概念，只以为它们是某种抽象事物，并没有产生任何事物的能力。然而，事实恰恰相反。也就是说，一切感知和感觉并一切能量和活动，包括世人的，都源于爱之良善和信之真理。

3887. In heaven or the Grand Man there are two kingdoms, one of which is called Celestial, and the other Spiritual. The celestial kingdom consists of angels who are called celestial, and these are they who have been in love to the Lord, and thence in all wisdom; for they are in the Lord, and thereby they are pre-eminently in a state of peace and innocence. They appear to others like little children; for a state of peace and innocence presents this appearance. Everything there is as it were alive before them, for whatever comes immediately from the Lord is alive. Such is the Celestial Kingdom. The other kingdom is called Spiritual. It consists of angels who are called spiritual, and these are they who have been in the good of charity toward the neighbor. They make the delight of their life to consist in the fact that they can do good to others without recompense; to them it is sufficient recompense to be allowed to do good to others. The more they will and desire this, in so much the greater intelligence and happiness are they; for in the other life everyone is gifted with intelligence and happiness by the Lord, in accordance with the use he performs from the affection of the will. Such is the Spiritual Kingdom. [2] They who are in the Lord's celestial kingdom all belong to the province of the heart; and they who are in the spiritual kingdom all belong to the province of the lungs. The influx from the celestial kingdom into the spiritual kingdom is like that of the heart into the lungs; as also is the influx of all things of the heart into those of the lungs; for by means of the blood vessels the heart rules in the whole of the body and in all its parts; and the lungs in all its parts by the respiration. Hence there is everywhere in the body as it were an influx of the heart into the lungs; but according to the forms there; and according to the states. From this arises all the sensation as well as all the action that is proper to the body, as may be seen from the case of foetuses and newborn infants, which cannot have any bodily sensation, nor any voluntary action, until their lungs have been opened, and thus an influx established of the one into the other. The case is similar in the spiritual world, but with the difference that there are not there bodily and natural things, but celestial and spiritual ones, which are the good of love and the truth of faith. Hence the cardiac motions with those in the spiritual world are according to the states of love, and the respiratory motions are according to the states of faith; the influx of the one into the other causes in them spiritual sensation and spiritual action. These things will necessarily appear to man as paradoxical, from his having no other idea of the good of love and the truth of faith than that they are certain abstract things without the power of effecting anything, when yet the contrary is true, namely, that all perception and sensation, and all energy and action, even in man on earth, are from the good of love and the truth of faith.

3887. In heaven or the Grand Man there are two kingdoms, one called celestial, the other spiritual. The celestial kingdom consists of angels who are called celestial and are those who have been governed by love to the Lord and so by all wisdom. For they more than all others abide in the Lord and so more than all others experience the state of peace and innocence. To others they look like young children, for the state of peace and innocence gives them this appearance. Everything there is living so to speak in their eyes, for that which comes directly from the Lord is living. Such is the celestial kingdom. The second kingdom is called spiritual. This consists of angels who are called spiritual and are those who have been governed by the good that flows from charity towards the neighbour. The delight of life is considered by them to lie in being able to do good to others without reward. To them being allowed to do good to others is itself a reward. And the more this is their will and desire the greater the intelligence and happiness they experience, for in the next life the Lord confers intelligence and happiness on everyone according to the use which he performs from the affection that belongs to his will. Such is the spiritual kingdom.
[2] Inhabitants of the Lord's celestial kingdom all belong to the province of the heart, and those of His spiritual kingdom all belong to the province of the lungs. The influx from the celestial kingdom into the spiritual kingdom is similar to the influx of the heart into the lungs, and also to the influx of all things belonging to the heart into those belonging to the lungs. For the heart reigns in the whole of the body and in every individual part of it by means of the blood vessels, as do the lungs in every individual part by means of the breathing. Consequently throughout the body there is so to speak an influx of the heart into the lungs, but this is dependent on the forms there and on the states. This is how all sensation arises and also all activity which belongs properly to the body. This point can also be proved from embryos and new-born infants. These cannot have any bodily sensation or any act of individual will until the lungs have been opened for them and an influx consequently takes place of heart into lungs. It is similar in the spiritual world, the difference being that bodily and natural things do not exist in that world but celestial and spiritual, which are the good of love and the good of faith. With them therefore motions of the heart are determined by the states of love, and respiratory motions by the states of faith. The influx of one into the other causes them to have sensations of things in a spiritual manner and to act in a spiritual manner. These ideas are bound to seem paradoxical to man because he has no other idea of the good of love or of the truth of faith than that they are some abstract qualities which have no power to effect anything. In fact the contrary is the case; that is to say, they are the source of all perception and sensation, of all energy and activity, including those in man.

3887. In caelo seu in Maximo Homine sunt bina regna, unum vocatur caeleste, alterum spirituale; regnum caeleste constituitur ab angelis qui caelestes vocantur, et illi sunt qui in amore in Dominum fuerunt, ac inde in omni sapientia, nam sunt prae aliis in Domino, et inde prae aliis in statu pacis et innocentiae; apparent aliis sicut infantes, nam status pacis et innocentiae illam apparentiam sistit {1}; vivit quasi coram illis quicquid ibi est, nam quod immediate a Domino venit, hoc vivit; hoc est regnum caeleste. Alterum regnum vocatur spirituale; hoc constituitur ab angelis qui spirituales vocantur, et ibi sunt qui in bono charitatis erga proximum fuerunt; jucunditatem vitae in eo ponunt quod benefacere possint aliis absque retributione, hoc illis est retributio quod aliis liceat bonum facere; quo plus hoc volunt et desiderant, eo in majore intelligentia et felicitate sunt, nam quisque in altera vita intelligentia et felicitate a Domino donatur secundum usum quem ex affectione voluntatis praestat; hoc est regnum spirituale. [2] Qui in caelesti regno Domini sunt, pertinent omnes ad provinciam cordis; et qui in spirituali regno, pertinent omnes ad provinciam pulmonum. Influxus a caelesti regno in spirituale se habet similiter sicut influxus cordis in pulmones;tum sicut influxus omnium quae {2} cordis sunt in illa quae pulmonum; cor enim in universo corpore et in singulis ejus regnat per vasa sanguinea, et quoque pulmo in singulis ejus per respirationem; inde est ubivis in corpore sicut influxus cordis in pulmones, sed secundum formas ibi et secundum status; inde existit {3} omnis sensatio, ut et omnis actio, quae propriae sunt corporis;
quod etiam constare potest ab embryonibus et infantibus recens natis; hi non aliquam {4} sensationem corpoream habere possunt, nec aliquam actionem voluntariam, priusquam aperti illis sunt pulmones, et inde influxus unius in alterum datus. In spirituali mundo similiter se habet, sed cum differentia quod ibi non corporea et naturalia sint {5}, sed caelestia et spiritualia quae sunt bonum amoris et bonum fidei, inde cardiaci motus apud illos sunt {6} secundum status amoris, et respiratorii motus secundum status fidei; influxus unius in alterum facit ut spiritualiter sentiant et spiritualiter agant. Haec non possunt aliter apparere homini quam sicut paradoxa, quia de bono amoris et vero fidei non aliam ideam habet quam quod sint abstracta quaedam absque potentia aliquid efficiendi, cum tamen contrarium est, nempe quod inde sit omnis perceptio et sensatio, et omnis vis et actio, etiam quae in homine. @1 facit$ @2 i in corpore$ @3 venit$ @4 i prius$ @5 sunt$ @6 est AI$
