What it is:
“Spiritism is a science which deals with the nature, origin and destiny of Spirits, as well as their relationship with the corporeal world.”
It is the set of principles, as revealed by the Superior Spirits, contained in Allan Kardec’s works, which constitute the Spiritist Fundamentals: The Spirits’ Book, The Mediums’ Book, The Gospel Explained by Spiritism, Heaven and Hell, and The Genesis.
-Allan Kardec (Taken from Qu’est-ce que le Spiritisme? – Préambule) Translated from the original French
What it reveals:
It reveals more profound concepts with respect to God, the Universe, the Human Being, the Spirits and the Laws which govern life itself.
Furthermore, it reveals who we are; where we have come from; where we are going to; what is the objective of our existence; and what are the present and past causes of pain and suffering.
What it encompasses:
Spiritism contributes to all areas of knowledge, human activities and behavior, offering new perspectives for humankind.
Spiritism is studied, analyzed, and practiced in all the fundamental aspects of life, such as scientific, philosophical, religious, ethical, moral, educational, and social.
“To be born, to die, to be reborn yet again,
and constantly progress…”- Allan Kardec
