Physiological Correspondences

WORCESTER, JOHN

Serious study of Swedenborg's psychology by a leading twentieth century authority on Swedenborg. In a series of essays Odhner clearly and concisely examines a wide variety of topics concerning the human mental constitution, including its state after death. Particularly helpful in explaining Swedenborg's conception of the relation between the physical and spiritual realms. Fascinating treatment of the memory and its relation to imagination and rational thought. Diagrams. Index.

The Human Mind

Odhner, Hugo L.

In what may be one of the oldest and longest series of dreams and their analysis, Swedish scientist-turned-seer Emanuel Swedenborg (1688-1772) describes his dream life in detail during a crucial period in his transformation into a mystic. Journal of Dreams,  with its accompanying interpretation by psychologist Wilson Van Dusen,  provides an intimate view of spiritual discovery.

<p>"The body of man is the natural object corresponding most closely to heaven and having the greatest relevance to the truly human form. Hence it is that human anatomy and physiology facilitate our understanding of the doctrine of the Grand Man. How delightful it is to think about the beauty and wonder of the bodily structure and function and at the same time to realize that it is the product of the Lord's love and wisdom descended by degrees through heavens. One may easily be lost in wonder and praise. Yet this joyful experience is only a small trace of what it could be if more study, more time and more people were devoted to building temples of wisdom on the foundations of nature." From the Preface The book contains nineteen chapters. The first three provide the theoretical basis for the text, drawing on ideas in the Writings of Swedenborg. Then follow fifteen chapters in which the correspondences of nine major bodily organs and systems are explored. The closing Chapter XIX is titled "The interface between the Spiritual and the Physical." Dr. Berridge spent a lifetime as a research biochemist and has written a book in which the religion and science dialog takes on new meaning through the doctrine of correspondences. First edition 1993, reprinted 2001</p>
