When I was in conversation with angels, it happened that we were thinking about reflection, or paying attention to something, and the fact that only reflection causes spirits and angels to know what they are, that things are as they are. Reflection constitutes the essence of thinking, for without it the thinking has no life by sensation. So when, due to objects that came up, we happened to speak about reflection, and the fact that the ability to reflect on something does not belong to the person who is reflecting, but that it flows in, then I was given to see clearly by a spiritual mental image that we are only organic instruments, and that reflection is given by the Lord. It cannot possibly come from any other source.
