Spiritism 101
Author: Brian Foster
Publisher: CreateSpace
ISBN: 9781511933551
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 72
Book Description
Spiritism was presented to us by the Spirit world so we here on earth may perfect ourselves and prepare the earth to reach a higher plane of existence. Using Spiritism, we are expected to improve our collective behavior. Spiritism was brought to us via the work of Allan Kardec. In 1857, in response to the growing interest in spirits and mediums, Allan Kardec (pen name of the French teacher and educator Hippolyte Leon Denizard Rivail) organized a series of questions designed to discern the exact nature and wishes of the spirits. He did not accept information from just one medium, but verified the response to a question from multiple mediums throughout Europe. Allan Kardec wrote a total of five books documenting the answers to his questions. The basic tenants of Spiritism are: 1. Love God. 2. Do unto others as you would have others do unto you. 3. Practice justice. 4. Forgive all who offend you. 5. Make amends for our own wrong doing. The spirits revealed to us the basic facts of our existence: 1. Your soul is immortal. 2. You travel through multiple lives as a process to learn to love, be fraternal, and be selfless. 3. The goal of God is for every spirit to one day be pure. 4. There is no eternal hell, it is a station for souls who are materialistic and have an excessive love of self. 5. There are many levels of heaven. Heaven is not a place where we have eternal leisure, but one of on-going work to help others. 6. Life on earth is like a school. You are assigned events in your life and how you react and behave will determine your spiritual progress."
