132. As Divine Truth is light in the heavens, so all truths wherever they are, whether within an angel or outside him, or whether within the heavens or outside them, emit light. Nevertheless, truths outside the heavens do not shine as do truths within the heavens. Truths outside the heavens shine coldly, like something snowy without heat, because they do not draw their essence from good, as do the truths within the heavens. Therefore that cold light vanishes as soon as the light of heaven falls on it, and if there is evil underneath, it is turned into darkness. This I have sometimes seen, and many other noteworthy things about the shining of truth, which are omitted here.
