SD 4156
Conjugial love was represented near the scene of Paradisaical joys,
by adamantine [or diamond-like] auras,
sparkling as from rubies or deep red garnets.
. . . I afterwards conversed with one that was present, saying,
that conjugial love flowing from the heavenly marriage,
thus from the Lord
and from His compassion towards the human race,
was the principal and fundamental of all the loves
by which the celestial societies are distinguished,
and he could not but wonder that the human race is ignorant of it,
and cares scarcely at all about it.
