Allan Kardec

The book of spirits Allan Kardec

Communications between the spiritual and the corporeal world are in the nature of things and do not constitute any supernatural fact. For this reason vestiges of them are found in all peoples and in all ages. Today they are general and obvious to everyone. The spirits announce that the times designated by Providence for a universal manifestation have already arrived and that, being ministers of God and agents of His Will, their mission is to instruct and enlighten men, opening a new era to the regeneration of The humanity. This book is the compilation of his teaching. It has been dictated and written by order of superior spirits, in order to lay the foundations of a rational philosophy, free from the concerns of the system spirit; it contains nothing that is not an expression of their thought and has not been verified by them. Throughout the text it is possible to perceive how masterfully Allan Kardec orders constructive and enthusiastic thoughts, capable of effectively counteracting the atavistic fear of death. Furthermore, the rational exposition of his teaching not only strengthens faith in the spiritualist precepts but, with equal potency, awakens an inexhaustible hope in the future life
