5229. 'I remember my sins today' means regarding a state of separation. This is clear from the meaning of 'sins' as the faults that belong to an inversion of true order, dealt with in 5076, and from the meaning of 'remembering' as a joining together, dealt with in 5169, so that 'remembering one's sins' means becoming attached to those faults that belong to an inversion of order, and as a consequence becoming separated from the natural represented by 'Pharaoh'. For that which is attached to the faults present in inverted order is separated from what constitutes true order. The reason 'remembering' means a joining together is that in the next life the remembrance of a person links one up with him. For as soon as any spirit calls another spirit to mind, the latter becomes present with him, so fully that the two can converse with each other. This explains why angels and spirits are able to meet, see, and talk in person to everyone they have been acquainted with or heard about, if the Lord lets them call such persons to mind, 1114.
