Spiritism respects all religions and doctrines; values all efforts towards the practice of goodness; works towards peace and fellowship between all nations and all peoples, regardless of race, color, creed, cultural or social standing. It also recognizes that "the truly good person is one who complies with the Laws of Justice, Love and Charity, in their highest degrees of purity.
—from The Gospel According to Spiritism, Chapter 17, Item 3

The Spiritist Doctrine has three interrelated aspects, which convey the essence of Spiritism.
Why Philosophy? Because Spiritism reveals the origin and destiny of human kind. It is the intelligent manifestation of reason.
Why Science? Because Spiritism investigates the phenomena of the Universe.
Why Religion? Because Spiritism reveals the harmony of the Universe, ordained by God through His moral and physical Laws, stimulating progress towards perfection. |

To be born, to die and be reborn yet again, and constantly progress, that is the law. (Allan Kardec)
The Society welcomes you to acquaint yourself with Spiritism. As practitioners, we are constantly searching for Enlightenment through study and analysis of the three aspects of the doctrine—philosophy, religion, and science. The works of Allan Kardec provide a foundation in the Spiritist Doctrine explaining reincarnation, its mechanism, and phenomena.
Through practicing the doctrine, we understand the reasons behind our past and present life, the causes and effects of our suffering. This enables us to take responsibility for who we are, bringing hope and faith into everyday existence.
The Spiritist practice involves mutual help toward personal transformation and responsibility, understanding of life-trials and suffering, learning how to forgive and to love and, most of all, to gain knowledge of teachings of Christ and other teachers of wisdom. Through hope and faith, we can make every effort to be more instrumental in change toward a better world. |
