943. Yet who will believe it that human minds, and thus people in the whole world, are controlled entirely at the Messiah's will, by means of spirits; and that human minds, consequently the human beings themselves, are mere instruments? But to the end that everyone may believe this, I can earnestly declare by God that I have experienced it so clearly that I am sure there could not be a clearer sensation in these matters. This has lasted now for a period of almost eight months [see 8a below]. During this time, by the Divine Grace of the Messiah, my mind has been governed by spirits of His heaven, with whom I have spoken throughout that entire period by day, almost without interruption. At such times, these spirits streamed into my mind, bringing spiritual light together with the mental images themselves and the least points of thought, and even the actual words themselves, which no bystander was able to hear. Their inflow was so plain that I knew I was not thinking anything at all, not the least thing, that was not thus consciously streaming in. I could not produce even one idea by my own effort, even though I was conceded the appearance that I could. Yet all the while, during a period of five months, I was going around as before with friends in my country and with others socially, and no one noticed that such a heavenly association existed. Just as they did into my intellect, spirits also streamed into my will and into my very actions. I was led wherever they pleased - through roads and streets, to an inn, and all around - to the point that I was just like a mere passive instrument. So perceptibly did they control the very movements of my feet, arms, head, eyes, and bodily joints, during conversations, according to the pleasure of the Messiah Himself, that the Spirits of His Heaven, who likewise by their own confession were controlled as passive instruments by the Messiah, were amazed themselves that I scarcely strayed by a footstep. This happened in the same way as when one is driven along by a plainly felt power. Through all this, by the Divine grace of the Messiah, I have learned most clearly that all human thought, will and action is guided by the Messiah Alone, according to His will. Some of His Servants, from pure mercy and grace, He leads by means of His heavenly Spirits; and some He leads by permission, through other spirits who are not heavenly, all depending on each person's life.
