The fact that energy fields surround people can be deduced by many considerations-even from things of nature, which are surrounded by fields without which they could never come to exist or remain intact. And it is a wonder that very learned people have not been observant in regard to fields, which nevertheless show up clearly in many areas, and certainly in the individual members of the threefold kingdom [of nature]. As a matter of fact, not the least particle exists that does not have its own field around it; and harmonizing parts make up a harmonious common field agreeing with the parts. There are fields of all parts together, both of energy and of inertia, such as fields of heat or of cold. These are even more distinct and extensive in the spiritual and heavenly realms, very obvious to those who are spiritual and heavenly.
