Table of Contents

Introduction / by Donald L. Rose
Preface / by Emanuel Swedenborg
The world of spirits and our state after death
What the world of spirits is
Each of us is inwardly a spirit
Our revival from the dead and entry into eternal life
After death, we are in a complete human form
After death, we enjoy every sense, memory, thought, and affection we had in the world
Our nature after death depends on the kind of life we led in the world
Our first state after death
Our second state after death
Our third state after death is a state of instruction for people who are entering heaven
It is not so hard to lead a heaven-bound life as people think it is
Heaven
The heavens are made up of countless communities
Each community is a heaven in smaller form and each angel a heaven in smallest form
The whole heaven reflects a single individual
Each community in the heavens reflects a single individual
Every angel is in perfect human form
Owing to the Lord's divine human, in its entirety and its parts, heaven reflects a person
There is a correspondence of everything in heaven with everything in the human being
There is a correspondence of heaven with everything earthly
The sun in heaven
Light and warmth in heaven
How the states of angels in heaven change
Time in heaven
The clothes angels appear in
Angels' homes and houses
Space in heaven
Forms of government in heaven
Divine worship in heaven
The power of heaven's angels
The language of angels
How angels talk with us
Written materials in heaven
The wisdom of heaven's angels
The state of innocence of angels in heaven
The state of peace in heaven
The union of heaven with the human race
Heaven's union with us through the Word
Heaven and hell come from the human race
Non-Christians, or people outside the church, in heaven
Children in heaven
Rich and poor people in heaven
Marriages in heaven
What angels do in heaven
Heavenly joy and happiness
The vastness of heaven
Hell
The Lord governs the hells
The Lord does not cast anyone into hell : spirits cast themselves in
All the people who are in the hells are absorbed in evils and consequent falsities because of their loves of themselves and the world
Hellfire and gnashing of teeth
The malice and unspeakable skills of hellish spirits
The appearance, location, and number of the hells
The equilibrium between heaven and hell.
