377. I am about to discuss the correspondence of the heart and the lungs with volition and discernment. Upon this rests the correspondence of everything in the body, called the members of the body as a whole, the sensory organs, and the body's viscera. Further, the correspondence of physical things with spiritual ones has not been recognized even though it was fully demonstrated in two works, one of which is Heaven and Hell and the other of which is on the spiritual meaning of the Word in Genesis and Exodus, titled Secrets of Heaven. For all these reasons, I should like now to point out the sections of these two works where I have written explanations of correspondence.
In Heaven and Hell, there is material on the correspondence of everything in heaven with everything in us, 87-102; and on the correspondence of everything in heaven with everything on earth, 103-115.
In the work on the spiritual meaning of the Word in Genesis and Exodus, titled Secrets of Heaven, there is material on the correspondence of the face and its expressions with the feelings of the mind: 1568, 2988, 2989, 3631, 4796, 4797, 4880 [4800], 5195 [5165], 5168, 5695, 9306;
on the correspondence of the body in its motions and actions with matters of discernment and volition: 2988, 3632, 4215;
on the correspondence of the senses in general: 4318-4330;
on the correspondence of the eyes and their sight: 4403-4420;
on the correspondence of the nostrils and smell: 4624-4634;
on the correspondence of the ears and hearing: 4652-4634 [4652-4659];
on the correspondence of the tongue and taste: 4791-4805;
on the correspondence of the hands, arms, legs, and feet: 4931-4953;
on the correspondence of the groin and the reproductive organs: 5050-5062;
on the correspondence of the inner viscera of the body, particularly the stomach, thymus, the cisterna, the chyle and its ducts and the mesentery: 5171-5180, 5189 [5181];
on the correspondence of the spleen: 9698;
on the correspondence of the peritoneum, kidneys, and bladder: 5377-5396 [5377-5391];
on the correspondence of the liver and the ducts of the liver, of the bladder, and of the pancreas: 5183-5185;
on the correspondence of the intestines: 5392-5395, 5379;
on the correspondence of the bones: 5560-5564;
on the correspondence of the skin: 5552-5573;
on the correspondence of heaven with a person: 911, 1900, 1982 [2162], 2996, 2998, 3624-3649, 3741-3745, 3884, 4091 [4041], 4279 [4280], 4423 [4323], 4524, 4525, 6013, 6057, 9279, 9632;
on the fact that everything in the physical world and its three kingdoms corresponds to something you can see in the spiritual world: 1632, 1881, 2758, 2890-2893 [2990-2993], 2897-3043 [2987-3003], 3213-3227, 3483, 3624-3649, 4044, 4053, 4156, 4366 [4936], 4939, 5116, 5377, 5428, 4477 [5477], 8211, 9280; that everything you see in heaven is a correspondence: 1521, 1532, 1619-1625, 1807, 1808, 1971, 1974, 1977, 1980, 1981, 2299, 2601, 3213-3226, 3348, 3350, 3457 [3475], 3485, 3748 [3747], 9481, 9570, 9576, 9577. The correspondence of the literal meaning of the Word with its spiritual meaning is dealt with throughout, and is also treated in Teachings for the New Jerusalem on Sacred Scripture 5-26, 27-69.
