When preadamites and those like preadamites are being inaugurated into swifter gyres that I finally felt as continuous, while previously they had been extremely separate [3392], I was given to realize that these inaugurations are like [the gyres] into types of breathing. For when breathing takes place in a person, the senses and perceptions come alive, as well as actions, and when there is inward breathing, that the inward senses and perceptions come alive, as I have been shown by actual experience. For I was driven into inward gyres also, which were kinds of breathing. So the first inauguration is only into types of breathing, and when these have been given, then the spirit is introduced into inward perceptions, and so further, for as shown before [3323], ideas are the intervals and variations of the types of respirations, as is obvious from the operation of the will into the muscles by means of the action of the lungs, spoken of earlier [3035]. 1748, 28 Sept.
