AC 6032
In regard to "seeing" as denoting to understand
and consequently to perceive and also to have faith,
be it known that there are two things with man
which make his life, namely,
Spiritual Light and Spiritual Heat.
Spiritual light makes the life of his understanding,
and spiritual heat the life of his will.
Spiritual light is from its first origin
Divine truth from the Divine good of the Lord,
and hence is the truth of faith from the good of charity.
And spiritual heat is from its first origin
the Divine good of the Divine love of the Lord,
and hence is the good of celestial love,
which is love to the Lord,
and the good of spiritual love,
which is love toward the neighbor.
These two, as before said,
constitute the whole life of man.
