Explore a distinctive view of creation and the cosmos. This edition distills Swedenborg's ideas about how infinity becomes finite, and how the universe takes shape.
This non-fiction study surveys how the Infinite can become the finite, and what that means for origins, time, and the natural world. It traces a path from abstract concepts to the physical layers that purportedly structure planets, atmospheres, and minerals. The text highlights how the author frames matter as made from primordial substances, and how different "auras" or atmospheres are said to surround celestial bodies and earthly masses.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into a profound exploration of creation, drawing upon the philosophical and theological framework of Emanuel Swedenborg, an 18th-century Swedish scientist, theologian, and mystic. The author intricately examines Swedenborg's cosmology, which posits the universe as a manifestation of the Infinite, or God. Central to the book is the concept of "finiting," whereby the Infinite gives rise to the finite world through a series of discrete degrees or levels of creation. The author meticulously analyzes Swedenborg's intricate descriptions of vortex rings, natural points, and successive auras, revealing the dynamic interplay between the spiritual and natural realms. The book explores profound theological and philosophical questions about the nature of God, the origin of the universe, and the relationship between the spiritual and material worlds. It delves into the concept of the Spiritual Sun as the first emanation of the Infinite, and the source of life and light for both the spiritual and natural realms. The author further investigates the formation of natural suns and planets, the earth's crust, and the emergence of life. Ultimately, this book offers a captivating journey through Swedenborg's complex cosmology, shedding light on the interconnectedness of all creation and the divine purpose embedded within the very fabric of existence.
