4165. About a flood of evils
I have very often experienced being withheld and raised up, so to speak, that is toward inward regions, thus into the company of good spirits, and then withheld from evil spirits, and I realized, and felt, that if I were to be let go of even very slightly, evil spirits would flood me with their persuasions and principles of falsity and evil, and I realized and felt that to the extent that I was let go of, they would inundate me. 1749, 9 Mar. 1
