Divine Love and Wisdom (Rogers) n. 8

8. It can be seen from this that one cannot from the perspective of a merely natural idea comprehend how the Divine is everywhere and yet does not exist in space, how angels and spirits comprehend this clearly, and how people can do so, too, provided that they admit into their thought some ray of spiritual light. The reason people can comprehend this is owing to the fact that is it not their body which thinks, but their spirit, thus not their natural element, but their spiritual one.
