Books by Allan Kardec

The Gospel According to Spiritism is a splendid book - elegantly written, radiant in its prose, and a source of charm for the speculative imagination. The book celebrates Allan Kardec's discovery of the Christian message through the poetic longings and devotional confessions of those who have already crossed the great river. This is a book that invites the reader to ponder her or his life through the vivid accounts from those who have already mastered their lessons, and the reflections of those who were willing to reevaluate their own past experiences on Earth. This is what makes the Gospel a true guide for our own inner transformation, and for engaging the self in the discovery of each person's true purpose in life.

A book that dares to propose answers to the existential questions that confound human beings in the course of a lifetime: Is there more to life than the physical universe? Is there a purpose for human life? What is God? What is the nature of the Soul? Why is life so unjust and dire to some? Is life-after-life a reality? Does evolution have a role for the spirit? Is Jesus truly the path of salvation? Is consciousness eternal?The Spirits' Book offers new ideas for the person unconvinced by the answers of formal religions or disheartened by the void of afterlife that arises from the conclusions of modern scienceThis third edition of The Spirits' Book is superb in quality, timelessly speaking directly to the modern heart and mind. Commitment to its French origin and stylish readability make this rendition better than any other English translation.

Tiré de l'ouvrage L'Evangile selon le Spiritisme, cet ensemble de prières offre un support à la pensée lau moment de prier. Cet ouvrage propose une analyse de Notre père, l'oraison dominicale, puis des prières pour les réunions spirites, pour les médiums, pour soi, pour des personnes malades, pour les proches décédés...Extrait : Les Esprits ne prescrivent aucune formule absolue de prières ; lorsqu'ils en donnent, c'est afin de fixer les idées, et surtout pour appeler l'attention sur certains principes de la doctrine spirite. C'est aussi dans le but de venir en aide aux personnes qui sont embarrassées pour rendre leurs idées, car il en est qui ne croiraient pas avoir réellement prié si leurs pensées n'étaient pas formulées.Le recueil de prières contenues dans ce chapitre est un choix fait parmi celles qui ont été dictées par les Esprits en différentes circonstances ; ils ont pu en dicter d'autres, et en d'autres termes, appropriées à certaines idées ou à des cas spéciaux, mais peu importe la forme, si la pensée fondamentale est la même. Le but de la prière est d'élever notre âme à Dieu ; la diversité des formules ne doit établir aucune différence entre ceux qui croient en lui, et encore moins entre les adeptes du Spiritisme, car Dieu les accepte toutes lorsqu'elles sont sincères.

Allan Kardec's supreme handbook about the world of the spirits and the movement of Spiritism is a valuable and insightful guide to existences beyond our corporeal realm.Kardec begins this work by delving into the historical significance of spirits, their connection with God and the physical universe. How spirits are situated in the world, and how they move unseen between the planes of existence, is discussed. The second part concentrates on The Spirit World in greater detail. The types of spirits and how they are incarnated are detailed, with Kardec proposing that several distinct planes of existence are extant, and that most individuals proceed through life without knowing or seeing their influence. A chapter is devoted to how spirits might intervene in our everyday, corporeal world. Often these excursions have a purpose; the spirits are on a mission to inform someone, or change something, that harmony may be restored.
