2. “IF YOUR REASON REVOLTS, THEN REJECT IT”
SPIRITUALISM IS A RELIGION, A SCIENCE, AND A PHILOSOPHY; IT IS BASED UPON THE SEVEN PRINCIPLES:
THE FATHERHOOD OF GOD
THE BROTHERHOOD OF MAN
THE COMMUNION OF SPIRITS AND THE MINISTRY OF ANGELS
THE CONTINUOUS EXISTENCE OF THE HUMAN SOUL
PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY
COMPENSATION AND RETRIBUTION HEREAFTER FOR ALL GOOD AND EVIL DEEDS DONE ON EARTH
ETERNAL PROGRESS OPEN TO EVERY HUMAN SOUL.
SPIRITUALISM HAS NO DOGMA AND NO ONE WIL TELL YOU WHAT TO THINK OR HOW TO LIVE, ONLY ADVISE YOU. INDIVIDUAL INTERPRETATION OF EACH OF THE PRINCIPLES IS RESPECTED BY ALL MEMBERS. WHAT MATTERS IS THAT YOU ARE ABLE TO TAKE SOME PERSONAL MEANING FROM EACH OF THEM.
A FAMOUS SPIRIT GUIDE, SILVER BIRCH, ONCE SAID THROUGH HIS MEDIUM, MAURICE BARBANELL:
“IF YOUR REASON REVOLTS, THEN REJECT IT”
THIS IS THE STANCE WE ADVISE YOU TAKE TOWARDS SPIRITUALISM. THOSE IN THE SPIRIT WORLD ARE NOT LOOKING FOR YOUR BLIND FAITH, WHICH IS ONE OF THE REASONS THEY COME THROUGH MEDIUMS TO PROVIDE EVIDENCE OF SURVIVAL. LOOK UPON ALL YOU EXPERIENCE WITH AN OPEN-MINDED BUT CRITICAL EYE. TRUTH HAS ITS OWN VIBRATION.
