  • Free Will.Pptx
    2010 © United States Spiritist Council Mark Twain on Free Will What is Free Will? It is a sweltering summer day. You trudge past the ice cream parlor. Wow - 10 new flavors! Special of the day! Frozen yogurt, too! You go inside and proclaim: "I'll have double-fudge chocolate, please." Is picking chocolate over the vast array of other flavors a "free will choice?" No. It is simply the exercise of a preference. "Free will" refers to the type of decision that is uniquely human: a moral choice. Free will is the faculty that each person has to determine one’s own behavior. The possibility that one has, between two or more sufficient reasons for wanting or acting, to choose one of them. Allan Kardec asks the Spirits: Do humans act with free will? The reply is: Since they have freedom of thought, they have freedom of action. Without free will, human beings would be machines. Within this divine spark lies our potential to shape and change the world. Proper use of free will beautifies and perfects. Misuse of free will plunders and destroys. It is a uniquely human undertaking to learn how to use free will properly. Free Will and Human Behavior A belief in free will is important for human strivings. People cherish their sense of control over the world and their own behavior. Recently published articles by Kathleen Vohs, PhD, and by Roy F. Baumeister, PhD4 using arguments based upon observation and experimentation, show the negative consequences (cheating, aggression) of informing participants that free will does not exist.

  • Road to Spiritism
    THE ROAD TO SPIRITISM By MARIA ENEDINA LIMA BEZERRA A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2002 Copyright 2002 By Maria Enedina Lima Bezerra To my beloved parents, Abelardo and Edinir Bezerra, for all the emotional and spiritual support that they gave me throughout this journey; and to the memory of my most adored grandmother, Maria do Carmo Lima, who helped me sow the seeds of the dream that brought me here. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS My first expressions of gratitude go to my parents for always having believed in me and supported my endeavors and for having instilled in me their heart-felt love for learning and for peoples and lands beyond our own. Without them, I would not have grown to be such a curious individual, always interested in leaving my familiar surroundings and learning about other cultures. My deepest gratitude goes to the Spiritists who so warmly and openly welcomed me in their centers and so generously dedicated their time so that 1 could conduct my research. With them I learned about Spiritism and also learned to accept and respect a faith different from my own. It would be impossible for me to list here the names of all the Spiritists I interviewed and interacted with. In particular, I would like to thank the people of Grupo Espirita Paulo e Estevao, Centra Espirita Pedro, o Apostolo de Jesus, and Centro Espirita Grao de Mostarda. Without them, this study would not have been possible.

Two centuries have passed since then, and the Spiritist Movement he initiated continues to strengthen and grow throughout the world; a true testament to the memory of our Codifier’s work and dedication. In essence, the Review’s objective was to become a communication platform for the discussion and analysis of the ideas and experiences that were occurring all over the world at the time. The Spiritist Review also provides insight into the evolution of Kardec’s thoughts during the elaboration of the Spiritist Science, since he used several of its articles in the composition of the Codification works that followed The Spirits’ Book. Exactly 20 years ago, during a solemn meeting of the General Assembly held in Miami, Florida, United States, attended by representatives of several Spiritist institutions from around the world, the International Spiritist Council was tasked with the legal administration of The Spiritist Review, becoming the body responsible for it and ensuring its continuation.

Due to his studies and research, he has been contributed to the dissemination of the precepts of Christ under the perspective of the Spiritism, and also to comfort the people who ignore the true purpose of the present reincarnation. 4 Preliminary explanation Jorge Hessen, a spiritist writer, examines current issues with the objective of disseminating the Spiritist Doctrine and highlighting the dictates of reincarnation and immortality of the soul. His articles suggest a better understanding of immortal life and should be enjoyed by people who are not content with the shallowness of life that is ruled by the tyranny of materialism. * "Unshakable faith is only that which can meet reason face to face, in all ages of mankind."

    Mediumship: Study and Practice Program 2 1 Federação Espírita Brasileira Mediumship: Study and Practice Program 2 Organized by: Marta Antunes Moura Translated by: SUMMARY 2 3 Mediumship: Study and Practice - Program 2 Introduction Further to the launch of the Program I: Mediumship Course: Study and Practice, we present to the Spiritist Movement the Program II which completes the doctrinal content planned for the formation of mediumship workers in the Spiritist House. In this program, the study and practical activities have become more compressed and focused on Mediumistic practice, expected to be developed within six months, including the complementary activities, considered optional. The weekly meetings remain up to two hours, and the presentation of each theoretical theme is at maximum between 30-40 minutes, reserving the remaining time (1 hour and 30/20 minutes) to the Mediumistic exercise, developed in the form of a supervised Mediumistic meeting. Upon completion of the course, if the course coordination understands that participants need more time for Mediumistic practice, they may extend the supervised Mediumistic practice to one or two semesters, in accordance with the existing possibilities. Another possibility, always keeping consistency with the existing conditions in the Spiritist institution, is to direct participants who effectively demonstrate spiritual conditions to join a Mediumistic group, assuming their commitment to the work of mediumship. Participants should be aware that the completion of the course does not guarantee them referral to a Mediumistic group, considering that the Mediumistic experience demands of each one, not only doctrinal knowledge itself, but the persevering effort of moral improvement, dedication, attendance and mental health.

Although the discipline of spirituality is relatively young and its ontology needs Tconsensus, it is noticeable that spirituality adopts different and competing things. It unfolds through the deep understanding about the meaning of life, human nature, and the adoption of a transcendental perspective. It argues that we live in a suitable moment on this planet to take advantage of transformative potential derived from spiritual knowledge for the betterment of the human community. The evidence gathered here shows that by developing our own spirituality we can transform ourselves and our creations, including society and institutions. The approach of this endeavor reveals that both science and religion agree that the spiritual element permeates all things.
