I have now come to the conclusion that if the laws of creation only had the effect of imposing direction on the laws of conservation and of least action, they would not suffice to explain all the phenomena. I still argue that this effect exists. We must, however, in addition allow for creative causation, i.e. deeper levels of purposive causation, being able to bring about the transfer, conversion or transmutation of substance and of energy from one stratum of reality to another.
Swedenborg Scientific Association
The Swedenborg Scientific Association’s primary purpose is to make the scientific and philosophical works of Emanuel Swedenborg available as widely as possible. We do this by preserving, translating (into many languages), publishing, and distributing this material.
