Verse 16. In all these states you shall seek to perceive the Lord with all your intellectual powers as revealed in the Divine Humanity; namely, in those in which the soul is sustained with pure truth from the Word, and in those in which truth begins to be conjoined with good, and in those in which good is the ruling principle in the mind; and when you shall perceive the Lord's will, you shall endeavour to carry it out in the life.

116. The Sun in Heaven

Our world's sun is not visible in heaven, and neither is anything that is derived from it, since all that is natural. Nature, in fact, begins with that sun, and whatever is produced by it is called natural. The spiritual reality in which heaven exists, though, is above nature and completely distinct from anything natural. They communicate with each other only through correspondences.

The nature of the distinction can be gathered from what was said above about levels in 38, and the nature of the communication from the last two chapters about correspondences.
