Abstract

Abstract:Immanuel Swedenborg (1772-1688), the Protestant Christian mystic, was able to pass on the appearance of the material world in the light of understanding intuitive truths and to attain the intuitive facts of the real world, thereby gaining a semantic understanding of the events of the appearance world. Mystical thought of Immanuel Swedenborg forms on the basis of three fundamental principles. First, the principle of correspondence, which is the main axis of his mystical thought, is such that the hidden presence of this theory can be traced back in the rest of his ideas again. The second pillar of the mystical thought of Swedenborg is presented in the form of a different interpretation of the biblical text through the use of symbolic components which in this direction leads to the formation of an interpretive and symbolic interpretation of Bible verses, which is in the interest of the attention of the scholars and scholars. In the third pillar of his mystical thought, he addresses the various periods of humanity and how man relates to spiritual realms which is a very luminous beginning, and is the end with separation and parting, and hopes to reach light.
