Spiritism’s Five Basic Books The Spirits’ Book is the initial landmark publication of the five basic works that make up the Codification of Spiritism that has made a profound impact on the thought and view of life of a considerable portion of humankind since the first French edition was published in 1857. It is structured in four parts and has 1,019 questions asked by Allan Kardec, the Codifier of Spiritism. It rationally and logically presents the teachings of Spiritism in their scientific, philosophical and religious aspects. No matter what the religion or beliefs of the reader are, the reading of this book will be of immense value for everyone, for it talks about God, the immortality of the soul, the nature of spirits and their relations to human beings, moral laws, our present and future lives and the destiny of humankind -- subjects of general interest and great practicality. 630 pages Author: Allan Kardec Translator: Darrel W. Kimble / Marcia M. Saiz Published by:ISC - International Spiritist Council The Mediums’ Book is about mediumship -- a faculty that enables the communication between human beings and the spirits of the so-called dead. Allan Kardec was the first to seriously study mediumship by using the scientific method. This book presents the teachings of spirits on all types of spirit manifestations, the ways of communicating with the invisible world, the different types of mediums and the development of mediumship. Employing scientific strictness, it analyses hoaxes and charlatanism, and proposes methods of verifying and controlling information given by spirits. Finally, it defends the use of reason in dealing with subjects related to spirituality. 624 pages Author: Allan Kardec Translator: Darrel W. Kimble / Marcia M. Saiz Published by:ISC - International Spiritist Council The Gospel According to Spiritism consecrates the union between science and religion by explaining the moral maxims of Christ, their accordance with Spiritism and their application to various circumstances of life. This book contains the essence of the moral teaching of Jesus. Thus, it attracts followers of all religions -- and even those who don’t have a religion -- because it offers a safe process for our inner change, which according to Christ, is indispensable for us to reach future happiness and self-peace. In order to reach these goals, our immortal spirits must fully comply with the divine laws in our gradual evolutionary journey towards God. 522 pages Author: Allan Kardec Translator: Janet Duncan Published by:ISC - International Spiritist Council Heaven and Hell In this book, Allan Kardec approaches divine justice from the point of view of Spiritism. The first part is a comparative analysis of the concepts of different faiths about heaven, purgatory and hell, angles and demons, and future punishments and rewards. The dogma of eternal punishment is especially discussed and refuted by arguments taken from the laws of nature. The second part presents numerous communications with spirits in different situations, and which shed light on the state of the soul after death and its passage from the physical life to the spirit life, which until then had been obscure and feared. By compiling the afterlife experiences of a varied range of persons, Allan Kardec skillfully sketched a picture of future life that infuses people with hope and sustains our faith in a loving God. Author: Allan Kardec Translator: Darrel W. Kimble / Marcia M. Saiz Published by:ISC - International Spiritist Council Genesis This is the most scientific book by Allan Kardec. It deals with themes regarded as incontestable by religion in the light of the immortality of the soul, unifying Christian thought and scientific discoveries. It offers us a unique opportunity to know and study themes of universal interest, discussed in a logical, rational and revealing manner. It coherently analyzes the origin of planet earth and avoids mysterious or magical interpretations about its creation. It also analyzes the question of miracles, explaining the true nature of the extraordinary phenomena of the Gospels. Finally, it talks about a new generation, whose advent will be the beginning of a new era for humankind, based on the practice of justice, peace and fraternity. 407 pages Author: Allan Kardec Translator: Spiritist Alliance for Books’ Team Published by: SAB - Spiritist Alliance for Books

Healing is indeed a need that surpasses all national boundaries and can be found in the very essence of human nature. Despite modern medicine’s incredible technological advances, its main focus is the physical body. This causes the cure to be one-sided. Equilibrium is needed for perfect health and this is frequently dismissed. When this occurs, there is little or no harmony between body and soul. In modern medicine there is a great demand for highly specialized training, and this leads us to ask: who can heal? When considering spiritual and magnetic healing through the use of passes we can safely say that everyone is able to heal to some degree, and we will be observing this throughout this work. 102 pages.
