843. CONCERNING THE CITY ON THIS SIDE OF GEHENNA There also appears to many a great city with high buildings, which is at the front part of Gehenna, where many seem to themselves to dwell. Some who were there said to another spirit that things are tranquil in the city where they perform nothing but services to each other, and where all things are done aright, so that one does not injure another but desires what is right. They suffer such spirits to stay in that city, but no others.
