2008. By a quite similar general force, others are governed differently, each according to his or her own nature and character, but still within their limits, beyond which they cannot stray, because the general force sets the limits. This I observed by a varied experience with spirits, some of whom were then feeling a kind of anguish, saying it was as if they were tied up, because this subject was being thought about. Reflecting on it brought forth the general field, which they cannot stand because then their faults are reflected on. 1748, 20 May.
