799. Therefore, whatever kind of means, or intermediate goal, people are in their own goals, such is the character they acquire, and such their life at first becomes after bodily life; and such also is the abode they are allotted in the greatest body or Heaven, thus in the Human Himself, that is, in the Lord. As for still deeper regions, and the very inward and innermost, these we do not discern, nor consequently, where our heritage will be. This the Lord Alone discerns, because these matters are too inward to be able to open up before our very dim human sight.
