In my times of "Catholic, Roman Apostolic", at about the age of 16, the Spiritual Beings of my veneration were Jesus, Mary, Mother of Jesus and Antonio de Padua or Lisbon.
The wake of time rolled, and I, already mother of some children, remained firm as it is today, with my unshakable faith and trust in the three of them.
In the difficult hours of fierce tribulation, I begged one of these dear "older brothers", with tears in my eyes, to help me. Incredible thing! The spiritual help, through intuition, reached my poor spirit, advising resignation, patience and courage.
The years passed and I firmly embraced life after death, the Reincarnation and the various Abodes in the Father's House, and not only two abodes after the death of the physical body: "heaven and hell" for all eternity, as some peopole say in the name of God, in many religions.
I'm a spiritist at heart. I continue with great love the Spiritist Doctrine codified by our dear and brilliant brother Allan Kardec; So much so that, without being a medium = channel, I dared to found a Spiritist Center, which turned 40 years on December 23 last year (2010). However, admiration, respect and love for Jesus, Mary and Antonio de Padua have become stronger, because in our modest and small GESJ we have received messages, especially from Jesus, the son of Mary.
The Spiritist Doctrine allied to the Gospel of Jesus clearly explains the "mysteries and enigmas" of Life: What are we? Where we came from? Where are we going?
How much knowledge! How much logic in the answers, comfort and hope in the magnificent work of Master Kardec!
And the ignorant and poor of spirit attack him barbarously. How much religious fanaticism! How much prejudice and discrimination!
But let us speak of Mary again. I always talk about her sacred name with deep love and admiration, because I am also a mother.
Her messages are a few, but they caused me surprise and immense joy; and how similar they are in their content, we decided to join them in a single book with those of Sister Dulce and Joana de Ângelis.
Three women above the common, and for that reason, stand out for the nobility of character and purity of feelings, dedicating their lives (Joana de Ângelis and Sister Dulce) to live exemplifying, practicing, the Sublime Lessons of the Adored Master.
But speaking of Mary, Mother of the Spiritual Governor of our beautiful Planet, I now remembered an interesting episode that occurred in our routine meetings of disobsession. Here it is:
That evening, as usual, we attended a person we did not know.
He was a man in his 48's or 50's and something unusual happened in his appointment. The medium talked about what he had seen through the clairvoyance on the astral plane.
It was a beautiful, exciting scene about Maria. I do not remember the details any more:
Mary appeared in the sky through clouds and directed words of comfort to the man as to say to him: "Calm down, son. Have faith: I am always with you"! ...
For our surprise, the man very moved, by hearing the words of Mary through the medium, almost crying exclaimed: "I am devoted to Mary, I love her with all my heart!" ...
After the gratifying emotion, I asked him how he came to this Spiritist Center, because I soon realized that he was a Catholic!
He replied: It was Father X from the Y church who advised me to come here.
He said good-bye and we did not know him! I believe that faith, nourished by wonderful clairvoyance, healed him.
"Miracles also happen in Spiritist Centers"! ...
Praised be our Lord Jesus Christ!
Much peace in Jesus.
