🤝 Spiritist Practice
#


💸 Free of Charge
#

All spiritist practice is free of charge, according to the Gospel principle:

“Give freely what you have received freely.”


🙏 No External Worship
#

Spiritist practice has no external worship, according to the Christian principle that God must be worshipped in spirit and in truth.

Spiritism does not adopt or use in its meetings and practices:

  • Facings, alcoholic beverages, incense, smoke
  • Altars, icons, candles, processions
  • Talismans, amulets, sacraments, granting of indulgences
  • Horoscopes, divination, pyramids, crystals, seashells
  • Rituals or any other form of external worship

🧠 Freedom of Thought
#

Spiritism has no priesthood, gurus or the like. It does not impose its principles — it invites those who wish to know it to submit its teachings to the test of reason before accepting them.


🌀 Mediumship
#

Mediumship — which enables communication between Spirits and men — is a gift that many people bring at birth, regardless of the doctrinal line adopted in their life.

Spiritist mediumistic practice is only that which is exercised on the basis of the principles of the Spiritist Doctrine and according to Christian morality.


🌍 Universal Fraternity
#

Spiritism:

  • Respects all religions
  • Values efforts towards the practice of good
  • Works for fraternity among all men, regardless of race, colour, nationality, creed or sociocultural level

“The truly good man is he who practises the law of justice, love and charity in its greatest purity.”
