**At this stage everything depends not just on your viewpoint – which is quite a usual condition – but also on which way you are looking. (In [2], [xS] says specifically: ‘Man exists within the physical and Spiritual Worlds’.)***

Point of View	Object of Attention	Form
Anywhere in the Physical Universe	Anywhere in the Physical Universe	As normal for us
Anywhere in the Physical Universe	The Spiritual Sphere or World	No sight – but awareness of the Hemisphere of Men ‘within’
The Hemisphere of Men	The Physical Universe	Depends on Individual’s physical location
The Hemisphere of Men	The Spiritual Kingdom	Inside of Hemisphere
The Spiritual Kingdom	The Hemisphere of Men	Inside of Hemisphere
The Spiritual Kingdom	Rest of Creation (including Physical Universe)	Shifting Sphere: [see text continued below this table]

Shifting Sphere[text continued from final box in table above]:

(1) Overall view is as from outside of Sphere, looking in, with rest of Spiritual Kingdom on outside: but when you turn your attention to another within the Spiritual Kingdom, the Kingdom appears once again like the inside of a Sphere.

(2) View focused on any particular point is as from the inside of Sphere, looking out; all round view is obtainable without obstruction by Hemisphere of Men, rest of Spiritual Kingdom, etc. unless one turns one’s attention back to them.

***["The purpose of the Universe and of the Spiritual Kingdom is the purpose of God, the Essence, for them. The purpose of the natural World is to support the purpose for Man. The principal means by which the physical Universe supports Man's purpose are by Creation and by Evolution. The purpose of Man can only be achieved within the degree of physical separation from the One which the Universe provides. Man exists within the physical and Spiritual Worlds: he may sink with the Animals, or rise with the Angels. The purpose of (and for) the Angels is to help Man to fulfil the purpose set for him by God. The principal means by which the Spiritual Kingdom supports Man's purpose are by Love, and by Harmony.” (Original ts)]
