I spoke with spirits about earthly things, saying that they come forth from spiritual ones, for the reason that there are spirits who relate to the bladder, ureters and the like. This is confirmed by what may be known to anyone, [namely] that acts of the body, which are earthly, come forth from thought, through the will, which are spiritual. For this is clearly seen by means of a spiritual mental image, that is that earthly acts come forth from things they do not grasp, such as from thought through the will. So in all other cases. 1748, 10 Sept.
