Why do we evoke Allan Kardec?

If you are not already aware, recently, after the maturation of our mediumistic group, always carrying out a critical examination of mediumistic communications, we felt that the moment was right and, with the most serious motivation possible, we sought to obtain general guidance from the Spirit of Allan Kardec, knowing, as he himself asserted, that:

All spirits can be evoked: those who animated obscure men, as well as those of the most illustrious figures, whatever era they lived in; those of our relatives, friends, or enemies, and from them, through written or verbal communications, advice, information about their situation in the afterlife, what they think of us, as well as the revelations they are permitted to make to us.

Allan Kardec — The Spirits' Book — Introduction

The manner in which the evocation is performed, and its good or bad outcome, reside in what he says immediately after the preceding paragraph:

Spirits are attracted according to the sympathy inspired in them by the moral nature of the environment that evokes them. Superior Spirits delight in serious gatherings where the love of good and the sincere desire of those who compose them to learn and improve themselves predominate. Their presence repels inferior Spirits who, conversely, find free access and can act with complete freedom among frivolous people or those driven solely by curiosity, and wherever evil instincts exist. Far from obtaining good advice or useful information from them, one should only expect trivialities, lies, tasteless jokes, or mystifications, since they often assume venerated names in order to better lead astray.

Allan Kardec — The Spirits' Book — Introduction

We believe, at the time mentioned, that our environment is precisely that of serious meetings and, in fact, We received a response., which, as we have analyzed, in no way contradicts the expected nature of the response, whether it came directly from that Spirit or from a representative sent by him.

What, however, was the intention behind this evocation? Exhibitionism? Vanity? An attempt to gain authority? Not at all. We consider our group a laboratory and, since we still operate without the collaboration of other groups, we neither should nor wish to obtain anything from them. new about the Spiritist Doctrine, so that no name This will not lead us to adopt any new principle that requires the collaborative methodology used by Kardec. We say: First, we need to establish a central group., with the participation of delegates (representatives) of other mediumistic groups, formed by the same principles, so that we can resume conducting any research.

Our goal, therefore, is to demonstrate to the public that, with the necessary discretion and seriousness, in addition to doctrinal unity (knowledge about the Spirit ScienceYes, it is possible and beneficial to evoke spirits, who will assist us whenever we demonstrate goodwill.

The idea that we now have the Spirit of Allan Kardec at our disposal is far from our minds. No, that would be a mistake—with any Spirit, for that matter. We will continue our learning process, invoking other Spirits, such as that of Ermance Dufaux, whose evocation, At first glance, it seemed to us to be a misrepresentation that, lacking a better way to investigate precisely because we lack partner groups, only leads us to state, for now, This dialogue is fraught with uncertainty.

We eagerly await the formation of more groups within this same doctrinal framework, following the necessary study. However, we regret the slowness of many who still expect the work to be done for them.

One final word: yes, what we already have from Spiritist Doctrine is sufficient to elevate us many steps in evolution. However, as many say, Kardec's work does not encompass all aspects of Spiritism. There is a necessary development on various issues, which, surely, It will not be done in isolation., by one Spirit or by one group.

We await what the future holds.
