1839. About an enveloping spiritual field and its working on spirits

You may see elsewhere [167, 973-80] that every spirit possesses his own field of energy, so that many spirits together, or societies of spirits, form a common field. There were societies of good spirits, of angels, I believe, creating a field that I felt plainly, because I had been led into that field by the Lord. I did not understand anything of what they were thinking, but it was quite evident that it was good. But how those fields are to be understood is beyond description, because this happens by means of a general spiritual mental image, and consequently, they cannot be understood except by those who experience it.
