Book Description
Spiritism is one of the most beautiful and complete systems of thought that a human being can find to obtain the answers it longs for, in its relentless quest to know and understand the meaning of existence. Completely demonstrated in this book, it presents itself with an extraordinary rich capacity of synthesis, in the evidence of the facts that it investigates, and in the logic of its philosophy with its deep moral and social consequences. Within its pages, the reader will receive great intellectual and spiritual satisfaction exploring a systematic study of the soul, the afterlife, psychic abilities, mediumship, and reincarnation and how these influence our lives. JON AIZPURUA makes a careful consideration regarding the teachings of Spiritism, generally a spiritualist doctrine, but adheres to a more scientific approach. Thus, drawing a specific and definite dividing line of what Spiritism truly is, and between, all superstitious beliefs and practices that with deplorable frequency is presented in its name. Founded on the framework suggested by the wise French educator and paranormal researcher ALLAN KARDEC, its principle statements are a flag that flutters to the winds of genuine spirituality. Few books have brought together the rigor of its scientific basis with clarity to the general public. The study of this work is not just an acquisition of new knowledge, but is a deep spiritual experience.

Book Description
Wanting to popularize Spiritism and make spreading it easier and quicker, but without prejudicing the basic works of the Spiritist Doctrine, Allan Kardec wrote a number of booklets and distributed them throughout France at prices that were affordable for anyone who might be interested. Some of them had several printings and were highly successful. They continued to be republished even after the Codifier’s discarnation. This is one of those booklets. It is hoped that Spiritist readers will find that this unpretentious work enriches their knowledge of the Spiritist Doctrine.

Book Description
Salvation is the ultimate ambition of the vast majority of the world's most dominant religions. I have researched thirty-one religions that represent the vast majority of the religions of the world. From Christianity that represents one-third of the global religious community, to Judaism that represents a mere minute fraction of a percent. Rituals and beliefs change, but the ultimate spiritual goal remains the same, appeasing their Supreme Being and finding eternal piece. I found that all the various different beliefs, rituals, and traditions end up being different roads that lead to the same location, salvation. The details of the thirty-one most popular and main religions of the world are disused and analyzed. The religions are among the world's main religious denominations, thereby covering the vast majority of the planet's religious beliefs.

Genesis
Author: Allan Kardec
Publisher: FEB Editora/CEI
ISBN: 6555703385
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 402
Book Description
This book is one of the five basic works that make up the Codification of Spiritism, and is the author’s most scientific work. It deals with themes regarded as incontestable by religion in the light of the immortality of the soul, unifying Christian thought and cientific discoveries. It offers a unique opportunity for the reader to know and study themes of universal interest, discussed in a logical, rational and revealing manner. It is divided into three parts: The first part analyses the origin of planet Earth and avoids mysterious or magical interpretations about its creation. The second part analyses the question of miracles, explaining the nature of the fluids and the extraordinary phenomena contained in the Gospel. The third part focuses on the prophecies in the Gospel, the signs of the times and the new generation, whose advent will be the beginning of a new era for humankind based on the practice of justice, peace and fraternity. The subjects presented in its eighteen chapters have as their basis the immutability of the grand Divine Laws.

The Rise of Contemporary Spiritualism
Author: Anne Kalvig
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317017587
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 123
Book Description
Talking to the dead and communication with 'the other side' is often presented as a taboo in an increasingly technological and medically advanced world. However, practices of spiritualism and mediumship continue to remain popular and in high demand within contemporary Western societies. This book analyses the practices of today’s mediums, who insist on standing at the threshold between life and death, interpreting signs and passing on communications, and asks how such concepts and practices are perceived by contemporary society. Using first-hand material gathered from alternative fairs, mediumistic congresses, séances, and interviews with both practitioners and clients, as well as thorough textual analysis, Anne Kalvig provides a clear overview of the various forms of consumption of mediumship in Western society and places these within a socio-cultural, religious and historical context. She also raises questions as to the controversies surrounding spiritualism and its representation and relationship with popular culture and the media. This book will be of interest to researchers in the field of sociology, religious studies, folklore, media studies and anthropology as well as to anyone interested in the upsurge of contemporary spiritualism, psychic phenomena and the paranormal.
