389. THAT IT IS ONLY PHANTASIES THAT THEY SEEM TO BE SUCH; AND INDEED SUCH PHANTASIES, THAT SOULS IN THAT STATE ARE QUITE UNABLE TO DISTINGUISH THEM FROM REALITIES Concerning these it has been said and in many places shown that phantasies alone reign, which put on so much actuality as it were, that [souls] suppose that they sensibly touch the things, as garments and the like, altogether as in the body. Likewise, that they seem to themselves to be in subterranean crypts, also that they are on high in heaven above others, when nevertheless they are dispersed throughout the whole globe. If the phantasies are only bent or turned, those who are in the lowest parts may seem to themselves to be in the highest, and so forth. 1747, Dec. 24.* * There is no n. 390 in the manuscript.
