What is spiritualism?

 Each person has individual character traits and predispositions. Some are born with an analytical mind that enables them to make extraordinary scientific discoveries, while others have creativity or a great voice. There are also people among us who are gifted with extraordinary sensitivity and intuition, which is beyond general understanding. Such people often possess an extraordinary ability that is inaccessible to mere mortals, namely the ability to make contact with the hereafter and to establish communication with extraterrestrial beings.  Generally such abilities are called spiritism.

Foundations of spiritism
The foundations of spiritualism are considered to be the work published by Allan Kardec, who claimed to have contacted spirits on a number of occasions. News of the extraordinary work quickly spread around the world, and writers Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Ernesto Bozzano became the first exponents of the new doctrine. However, the origins of spiritualism go back to ancient times.  Probably few people know that the great Greek philosopher Socrates was in the habit of communicating with his spirit guide, whom he called his own guardian. When he wanted to meet him, he used to put himself into a state of absolute, mental passivity. Believing in an invisible spirit and resolutely refusing to deny its existence proved fatal for Socrates. He was labelled a heretic and sentenced to martyrdom by poisoning with hemlock. Kardec himself stated that it was Socrates who gave him the idea to write the work ..... In modern times. Spiritism in itself is not considered a religion. The doctrine asserts that there is no god above all things, and that spirits have the ability to improve and atone for sins committed during their lifetime. Extraterrestrial beings can improve themselves through gradual reincarnation, while communicating and interfering with human life. It is also said that there is life on other planets besides Earth.


Nowadays, spiritualism is widely present in the cultural world: in many films, TV programmes or series, one can find elements of this doctrine
