Arcana Coelestia (Elliott translation)


68. I am well aware of the fact that many people will say that nobody can possibly speak to spirits or angels as long as he is living in the body, and that many will call it delusion. Some will say that I have spread these ideas around so as to win people's trust, while others will say something different again. But none of this deters me; for I have seen, I have heard, I have felt.

Arcana Coelestia (original)


68. Non me latet quod plures dicturi, quod nusquam aliquis loqui possit cum spiritibus et angelis quamdiu in corpore vivit; et plures, quod phantasia sit; alii, quod talia tradidero ut fidem captem; alii aliter; sed haec nihil moror, nam vidi, audivi, sensi.
