11. A man's state as regards his will or love does not change after death, for the reason that it is his life, and so too as regards charity. A man's state as regards his understanding does change, and it changes as regards the love in his will. In the world a man may think that he is in heaven on account of his understanding, when really he is not. Therefore all that is true and good in the understanding is taken away, since it does not harmonise with the love in his will.
