2402. About states, and variations of states

I spoke with angels about states, and variations of states. It was said that states are numberless in kind and, in fact, far beyond the grasp of a person on earth, and that in their sequence the same kinds of states do not recur in such a way that they are entirely like previous states, but are of incredible variety. If this applies to states in kind, it must also to the species and to states individually. From this one may infer what the happiness of angels is like.
