The Spiritism is a philosophical doctrine with scientific basis, and moral implications. It was revealed by the spirits and codificated by the french professor Allan Kardec in the year of 1857.
The five basic concepts of Spiritism are:
- The existence of Spirit and its survival after death.
- The reincarnation.
- The law of cause and effect.
- Communication between the material and spiritual world.
- The progressive evolution of the Spirits.
The basic doctrine of Spiritism ("the Codification") is defined in five books written and published by Allan Kardec:
The Spirits' Book - A philosophical work. It is considered the backbone of Spiritism, since all the other works comes from its principles.
The Mediums' Book - Demonstrates the moral and philosophical consequences from relationships between the material and spiritual.
The Gospel According to Spiritism - Religious and moral part of the Spiritist Doctrine. Teaches Christian ethics by commenting on key passages in the life of Jesus Christ.
Heaven and Hell - Allan Kardec presents the true face of the desired heaven and the feared hell, but also the called Purgatory. Put an end to eternal punishment, showing that everything in the universe evolves.
The Genesis - Shows how the world was created, how the creatures appeared and how is the universe. It's the scientific part of the doctrine. Explains Creation, placing science and religion face to face.
