By actual and oft repeated experience, I have also been shown that those who have lived a life devoted to the body, or to the loves of the world and of self with their many states, degrees and varieties, are cold entities. In fact, they are so cold, that on repeated occasions they numbed my various members with coldness, then also with cold blasts like wind, when they came near, as tangibly as if there were a wind - but likewise by heat, when they are also given permission to counterfeit heat. These states likewise are countlessly diverse; but they too are removed, except in certain cases, even until [some] are raised up into heaven, about whom [I spoke] earlier [297, 309]. 1747, the 9th day of December.
