1121. In the "inner world" or the being's "kingdom of bliss", as already mentioned, only the "memories" engendered by realistic "experiences" can exist. In the last analysis any "experience" is actually the creation of "memories" that occur in the "outer world". An "experience" that does not create "memories" is not an "experience". It has no influence on the individual and will thus contribute "nothing" to its creation of consciousness, which is thus in turn the same as saying that such an experience is a total impossibility. In accordance with this, no "experience" could possibly exist or arise without it being the making of an "image" or "copy" of the "outer world" that is manifest in the individual's innermost self. The entire "inner world" of the "living being" is thus a "reproduction" or "copy" of the "outer world" materialised in the "substance of bliss", such as the senses of the being in question have reacted to it. But thereby the being has been "given a present" of a complete "reproduction" of the "outer world". In its innermost self a radiant "living copy" of the universe or cosmos appears with its vast areas of worlds, sun cities and galaxies, not to mention the multitude of life forms and details, beings and things of the being's own planet, all according to the ability of its senses to react to the same "outer world". Not one single thing that the being has experienced in the above-mentioned "outer world" has not left an exact "living copy" in its "inner world", whether it be any form of movement, any kind of solid, liquid, gaseous or ray-formed thing, whether it be articulate and creative human species with their works of art, their physical and mental capability, whether it be the roar of the ocean or the stillness of the mountains, the snow drifts, frosty mists and ice crystals of the winter, the profusion of flowers, the billowing heat haze and the light nights of the summer, whether it be tropical regions with jungles, wild animals and strange plants, palm groves, coral islands, deserts and mirages, whether it be enormous natural catastrophes, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes or floods as well as quiet moonlit nights, calm seas and waves glittering in the sun and so on, and so on. All details from the "outer world" are thus present in the being's "inner world" in the form of "living copies" to the extent that the being in question has experienced them. And in the middle of this being's entire "inner world" all the beings that it has experienced wander around, likewise in the form of "living copies": those who have been its parents, friends, companions, spouses, children and siblings together with all the other fellow human beings of more or less close or distant acquaintance, friends as well as enemies. Similarly all other experienced phenomena, those the being likes as well as those it does not like, are naturally also present in the form of "living, active copies" here in the being's "inner world". Indeed, within its sphere this "inner world" contains absolutely all the details of the "outer world" that the being's senses have reacted to, which in turn means everything that the being has sensed or experienced up till now. But when all the details of the "outer world" that the "living being" has sensed or experienced up till now are thus present here in a copied form in its "inner world", this of course means that the entire universe with its gigantic dimensions, as it has appeared to the being's senses or as it has experienced it in its "outer world", is fully present in its "inner world". Details that the being has neither had an inkling of nor experienced do not yet exist in this being's "outer world" and cannot therefore exist in its "inner world" either. But they are of course not missed there either, just as little as they are missed in its "outer world". Who misses something whose existence it has no inkling of? Everything that the being "has an inkling of", "believes" and "knows" and that exists in the "outer world" is of course just as unfailingly and certainly present in its "inner world" in the form of an "inkling", "belief" and "knowledge" respectively.
But imagine what it will mean thus to possess a "living" and perfect, complete "copy" of the experienced cosmos or universe as one's own absolutely "private property", indeed as a "secret recess of one's soul" that is quite inaccessible to other beings, given to one exclusively by the eternal Providence alone. Truly and in the absolute sense of the word a divine gift!
