What wise man does not see that such things enter the memory only, and not into the understanding above the memory, even though they may be confirmed by reasonings from appearances and fallacies below it?

The light from heaven, which is spiritual, flows into the human mind above the memory but the light from the world, which is natural, flows in below the memory. From this latter light, man can confirm whatever he pleases, falsities equally as well as truths; and after confirmation he sees falsities altogether as truths, as has been shown in a memorable narrative inserted in the work recently published concerning CONJUGIAL LOVE, par. 233.
