1856. Spirits who in life had taken pleasure in the Word of the Lord, and this with a real sense of enjoyment, have in the other life a certain heavenly, joyful warmth, which I was allowed to feel at the approach of their essential nature. The spirits' warmth is an outer one, to be sure, but radiating from inner qualities not yet very well seen. It actually warmed me, as the heat of summer, starting at the region of the lips and spreading over my cheeks even to my ears, and rising up to beneath my eyes. Downwards it spread onto my chest, to the midriff. The parts of the head above this area, and of the body below it, did have something of warmth from it, but not so strongly. So the area of warmth is from the mouth upward to below the eyes, and downward to the middle of the body.
