We have spirits and angels around us, our inner self lives
among them, and the Lord governs us through them. As
to our inner levels, or as to our thoughts and feelings, we
each exist in community with these beings, even though
we are unaware of it. Everything we think and will comes
from there—so much so that if the communities of spirits
and angels in which we exist were taken away from us, we
would instantly lose all thought and will. More than that,
we would instantly fall down completely dead.
