305. IN EACH HEAVEN THERE ARE VERY MANY CENTERS AND BASES WHICH ARE LIKE THE STARS OF THE HEAVENS There are many centers and bases in each heaven, by means of which there are immediate communications between the heavens, and with God Messiah. They are in a most tranquil state: nor can they be more aptly likened than to the ganglia in the human body, and to the nodes in the brain, into which innumerable fibers inflow and where they are formed as it were anew; and thus the things that are round about are disposed in accordance with the ends in the beginnings, and all of them therefore in a most perfect order and form by God Messiah alone. 1747, Dec. 5.
