At the dawn of the Enlightenment, at the beginning of the XNUMXth century, the humanity has staged a new historical and relevant cycle. The promise of the Messiah, according to John 16:13, has been fulfilled: “But when the Spirit of truth is come, he will guide you into all truth; for he will not speak of himself, but he will speak whatever he hears, and he will tell you what is to come.”
The Doctrine of Spirits provided an opportunity to unveil phenomena once considered supernatural.
In the “Century of Lights”, exponential figures from the sciences, arts and letters framed the events of the time with in-depth studies linking knowledge to reason, pushing away superstitions and blind faith giving way to logical reasoning.
Among them, we can mention: John Locke (considered the father of the Enlightenment), Denis Diderot, Voltaire, Jean-Jacques Rousseau and Charles-Louis de Secondat (Montesquieu).
The rise of spiritism
With the evolution of scientific knowledge, One of its supporting pillars, the Doctrine of the Spirits, was in charge of Missionary Allan Kardec, sent from Above for its proper codification.
Hard work, disciplined, persevering and covered with a Homeric responsibility, Allan Kardec undertook the study of spiritist phenomenology facing great obstacles from those who rejected such evidence, rooted as they were to prejudice and ignorance.
As revelations until today irrefutable in the light of science and reason have brought to humanity a new horizon of hope, based on the Beatitudes announced by Jesus, giving us the certainty of the immortality of the soul and reincarnation, through the numerous studies carried out by psychiatrists Brian Weiss, Ian Stevenson, among others.
The Scholars of Spirits
The Hydesville Phenomena from 1948, in addition to the studies of pneumatography, materialization and psychometry, the latter so well narrated by Ernesto Bozzano in the book Enigmas da Psicometria, make evident the veracity of the research undertaken.
In this context, it is worth mentioning one of the famous phrases by Allan Kardec, which corroborates the need to always have common sense in mind: “Unshakable faith is only that which can face reason face to face, in all ages of Humanity.. "
Other names of spiritualism
We still have numerous respectable names in spiritist literature, such as: Léon Denis, Gabriel Delane, Camille Flamarion, Chico Xavier, Divaldo Pereira Franco, luminaries that integrate the constellation of disseminators of the Doctrine of Spirits that reveals, console and redeems us.
Consolidated, also by the Gospel of Jesus, it takes us to the field of religion having, still as support, the philosophical precepts of His teachings in the scope of morals in conditions irrevocable rights to be present in any belief in the good. (The certainty of the life beyond the grave is the breath for the present life).
