Meet the main authors and figures who contributed to the building and spreading of Spiritist Philosophy.

Allan Kardec (1804–1869)
#

Hippolyte Léon Denizard Rivail was born in Lyon, France, on 3 October 1804. A trained educator and disciple of the renowned pedagogue Pestalozzi, he distinguished himself from an early age as a teacher and author of educational works widely adopted in French schools. His rigorous intellectual background prepared him for the mission he would only discover in maturity: to be the codifier of the Spiritist Doctrine.

🌱 Origins
#

Most spiritist centres began with simple study meetings held in family homes, with the participation of relatives and friends. It was from this union and harmony of ideas that many spiritist centres were founded throughout the world.

God is the supreme intelligence, the first cause of all things. He is eternal, immutable, immaterial, unique, all-powerful, supremely just and good.

✝️ Is Spiritism a Religion?
#

🧭 A Philosophical Doctrine
#

Spiritism is in itself only a philosophical doctrine built on concrete facts and natural laws still little understood. By profoundly modifying ideas, this doctrine touches all social questions — and consequently the religious question, like all others.

🌊 The Universe of Vibrations
#

From Léon Denis — In the Invisible

🌌 Everything Vibrates in the Universe
#

All manifestations of nature and life can be summarised as vibrations — more or less rapid and extensive, according to the causes that produce them. Everything vibrates in the universe: sound, light, heat, electricity, magnetism, chemical rays, cathode rays, radio waves… These are only the various modes of undulation and vibration of universal force — the successive degrees that constitute, as a whole, the ascending scale of energy manifestations.

Spiritism and Science

🔬 Is Spiritism a Science?
#

By Charles Kempf

📖 Definition and Specificity
#

The words spiritualism and spiritualist have a very general meaning: anyone who believes there is something beyond matter in themselves is a spiritualist. On the other hand, the terms SPIRITISM and SPIRITIST are neologisms — words created by its codifier, Allan Kardec.
