Pretense psychographies made honest spirits depart from Brazil

Mediunity is a strange phenomenon in Brazil, and it's not for the supernatural.

That's because there's too much mediums that the reality can bring, and how easily emerges messages supposedly attributed to the spirits of famous people.

There's always a "spirit of the week", saying the same old story: "I falled to darkened zones, helped to a spiritual colony hospital, learned the Gospel and saying to living people on Earth to reunite to prayers to the dead one and keep in peace for Jesus Christ".

That's religious mershandising, an advertising campaign to follow the Brazilian Spiritism, although that intention is never professedly declared.

The recent "spirit of the week" was the late footballer Daniel Freitas, a brazilian athlete who played at football teams like São Paulo and Coritiba.

Daniel was involved in an alleged love cheating affair, making sex to Cristiana Brittes, wife of entrepeneur Edison Brittes.

Edison broke the door, warned by the cheating, and found Daniel and Cristiana on bed. Edison says that Daniel tried to rape Cristiana.

Edison and some men caught the footballer, fought him and then the soccer player was killed by stabbing. Daniel's body was found in october 27 in Sao Jose dos Pinhais, Parana. He was 24 years-old.

The alleged medium Hadassa, not necessarily a spiritist and declared a clairvoyant, send a message alleged to the spirit of Daniel. A text (in portuguese) can be read here.

In her alleged mediunity, Hadassa said that the late footballer "really regreted" and "he lives in a forest, was so scared about diffamation against him and ask people on Earth to pray for him".

The alleged mediunity, said Hadassa, received the message when she dreamed.

We cannot consider it dishonest, but there's so much doubts about mediunity in Brazil. Hadassa sweared that she didn't diffused the message to get fame and success.

Brazil became the worst place to work mediunities, because the spree of fakes, started by Francisco Candido Xavier, aka Chico Xavier, made paranormality is a less reliable activity.

There's no serious and rigorous researches about paranormality, and lots of frauds were worked, although almost everything was threated as "honest spiritual messages".

Most of those messages had several mistakes about personal aspects.

Unfortunately, Chico Xavier was not the exception of this sad rule, and his several works are reportedly fraudulents, despite the comfortable messages and appeals to peace and fraternity".

The practice became such a bigger mess, so that the spirits from dead people so hardly approachs to bring some words to the people on Earth, specially Brazil.

Allan Kardec's essential book, The Book on Mediums, was a little effort to discipline the paranormal activity.

It went in vain. In Brazil, paranormality ruined for being a simple party of using a dead person's name to impress clouds and bring stardom and pretense sanctification to an alleged medium.

Of course. If an opportunist says he "establishes contacts to the dead", ingenuous people get affraid to questionate him, because they think he's a demigod.

The bigger mess broke up the contacts between dead people and living people.

Brazil became a great desert of mediumistic contacts. Dead and living people are not able to communicate themselves.

Evertything went to be a party of religious and sensationalist appeals, making stardom to alleged mediums and not helping to make us know about the real nature of spiritual life.

Cowardly, Brazilian Spiritism keep alleged psychographies as "open issues"

OLAVO BILAC, ONE OF THE SEVERAL VICTIMS OF CHICO XAVIER.

Brazilian Spiritism brought a coward decision about the alleged psychographies.

As they works demonstrate a lot of problems related to personal aspects, the brazilian spiritists preferred to make a strange attitude.

They keep the alleged spiritual works as "open issues".

It means that those works don't need to be recognized as true, but refuse to be recognized as false.

It brings the worrisome and serious problem.

The alleged psychographies - or similar activities related to voicing or painting, for example - can't be available to the public reading, if considered "not true nor false".

It must to demand the urgency to a rigorous research to check authenticity or fraud in those works.

Nobody can release to anybody works that are not sure to be written by a supposed author, if there's lacks of comprovation of this authorship.

Humberto de Campos, the main and serious example of alleged psychography, had strong differences between his original style and the style shown by the alleged spiritual works attributed to him.

There's several differences. Original Humberto's style was agile, cult but accessible and informal. The alleged spirit had other style, which seems so tired, prolix and excessively solemn.

The problem not only involves Humberto. Involves all of any spirit used by alleged mediums to be credited in supposed spiritual messages.

Brazilian journalist and former Realidade magazine's reporter, Leo Gilson Ribeiro (also one of the founders of Caros Amigos magazine), said a ironic comment about the alleged psychographies:

- "O espírito sobe, o talento desce" ("The spirit rises up, the talent throws down").

An indignant Joao Dornas Filho said similar thing about Olavo Bilac, one of the supposed authors of Chico Xavier's Parnaso de Além-Túmulo (Post Grave's Parnassus):

- "Olavo Bilac, um homem que no estágio de imperfeição nunca assinou um verso imperfeito, depois de morto ditou a Chico Xavier sonetos inteirinhos abaixo dos medíocres". ("Olavo Bilac, a man that in his unperfect stage never wrote an unperfect verse, but, after death, dictated to Chico Xavier entire sonnets less than mediocre").

Officially, Brazilian Spiritism, avoiding controversy, chosen to keep to "open issue" about the alleged psychographies.

It's unresponsible and coward, but comprehensible.

Brazilian Spiritism had financial intentions, although supposes to use the money rent to the charity.

It means that this religion want not to see the alleged psychographies forbidden to publishing.

The "not true nor false" option, however, gives a disrespect to the memory of dead authors credited in those pretense works.

It's offensive anyway, whatever is avoided all of the vulgar, pornographic or mocking appeals in the texts involved in it.

The offense consists to use a dead author's name, being or not famous, to the credit of the messages written by others, being, in this case, the alleged mediums.

It's so terrible, whatever the texts were so full of nice and comfortable messages about fraternity, peace and Christianism.

A false is a false, anyway, no matter if those messages promise the Peace of the World. Being a lie, they're deplorable in the same way.

Erasto, messenger improved by Allan Kardec, would reject Chico Xavier

Brazilian Spiritism deviated so much from the original Spiritism preceptions.

The brazilian religion became a recycled verson of the old Catholicism from Middle Age which dominated Brazil's colonial era until the 18th century.

Studies about spiritual life and the contact between living and dead people were so damaged.

Brazilian Spiritism reduced to be a religion of adoration, focused to the alleged mediums, promoted as its priests.

The alleged contact between alives and deads is made with strange facility, and restricted to be a religious mershandising, when alleged spirits of the dead always end their messages with statements like "Let's live in peace with Jesus Christ".

It's really so strange. It brings a false impression that the spiritual world is a very big church.

Famous dead people are usually involved at the alleged messages.

From Getulio Vargas, former Brazil's president, to recently late actor Domingos Montagner, there's always a "dead of the moment" in brazilian messages brought by alleged mediums.

Strange scraps are published unpunishedly, with ideas that the dead personalities could never defend if alive.

One example: Raul Seixas, credited as the supposedly codename of Zilio, said the strange idea about "the enemy of yourself", very inappropriate to a rebel rocker he was.

The idea of "the enemy of yourself" is originally from the Theology of Sufferance, derived current from medieval Catholicism.

The Theology of Sufferance consider pleasure and individuality as human addictions, and preaches that suffers must to accept their misfortunes to receive, some time later, the blessing of God.

As Zilio, worked by alleged spiritist medium and radio speaker Nelson Moraes, showed a strangely silly Raul Seixas spirit, seeming most a parody than the spiritual purification after the depuration during early post-death life.

The pretense Raul Seixas strangely kept the religious mysticism he left behind in his last years of life.

You can compare, for example, to the Marcelo Nova's partnership, when Raul returned his his corrosive and ironic critical sense.

Why could Raul Seixas recover the religious mysticism that's not appropriate to his personal nature as a rocker?

It's an example between a lot of ones, and Allan Kardec should condemn this practice.

Francisco Candido Xavier, aka Chico Xavier, begun a bad school of alleged mediunity.

He was the pioneer of fake literature, confirmation that saddens so much people but it's real and true.

The "Humberto de Campos" alleged spirit is so fake. The original Humberto de Campos is one person, one style, and the alleged spirit is so very different.

One ridiculous example: João Dornas Filho, a forgotten brazilian writer, said about the alleged psychography credited to poet Olavo Bilac brought by Chico Xavier:

"Olavo Bilac, a man that in his unperfect stage never created an unperfect verse, but after death dictated to Chico Xavier whole sonets below the mediocre".

Kardec condemned most of Chico Xavier's activities, and a extensive book is necessary to mention all of those mistakes.

Kardec's messenger, the spirit of disciple of St. Paul, Erastus of Paneas, one of the Seventh Disciples, according to Bible's registry, adverted to the "internal enemies" from the Spiritism.

We resume the Erastus serious advices about the Spiritism deviation by pretense followers like Chico Xavier:

- Prolixe and blistering texts to forge pretense erudition;

- Use of famous names to make impression to the readers for further domination;

- Diffusion of beautiful words to make emotional involvement to the readers;

- Bring fanciful ideas, like "spiritual colonies", to justify the social injustices and inequalities and to comfort the suffers when they're invited to accept their misfortunes.

- The charity or philanthropy as skilled tricks to avoid the severe criticism against the alleged mediums.

There's some and main of the negative aspects associated to deviated Brazilian Spiritism and especially Chico Xavier's legacy.

It's so painful to people used to adore him and credit him as a "best symbol of Love, Goodness and dedication to the poor".

But those qualities are so doubful, and builded in a narrative that seems a soap opera's plot, which makes a alleged medium as a "fairy godmother" from the real world.

That's fake an idea that Erastus can approve the Chico Xavier's legacy, the untruth constantly diffused by the Brazilian Spiritism's members.

Erastus, surely, have do reject and reprove, with much rigour, Chico Xavier and everything he did and still represent, although posthumously.

One phrase by Erastus can confirm his bruising but realistic rejection to Chico Xavier:

"It rather to reject ten truths to admit a single lie, just one false theory".

However, the Brazil considered as the third ignorant country of the world - it will be the first one, because of Jair Bolsonaro's victory from presidential run - , people prefers a comfortable lie as Chico Xavier's legacy, independent of accepting or rejecting some truths. It's so bad.

Spiritism confirmed that runned away from Allan Kardec's teachings

The teacher Allan Kardec should be so shamed about Brazilian Spiritism.

The religion allegedly influenced by Kardec's legacy runner away from his teachings.

Brazilian Spiritism perverted itself from its religious addictions brought from Brazil's colony age.

Kardec's had influenced by the new knowledges brought by french Illuminism and he was the follower of Franz Anton Mesmer's discovers about Magnetism.

Brazilian Spiritism only improved two concepts from Kardec: the notion of life after death and the possibility of reincarnation.

Otherwise, Brazilian Spiritism restricted to be the combination of Middle Age's Catholicism and some practices about witchcrafts, homeopathy and esoterism.

The doctrinal erosion reduced the Spiritism made in Brazil as only a religion of adoration to the alleged mediums and a mediocre moral prescription.

The great most of the Brazilian Spiritism events is about banal topics about "families relationship", "faith during the agony", "individual reforming" and "how to be happy in life".

Those topics sound so beautiful and positive, but they're so shameful and undignfied.

The alleged mediums adoration, especially Francisco Candido Xavier (aka Chico Xavier), is a serious problem prevented previously by personalities associated to religious wisdom.

Moses, known as the writer of the Ten Commandments, condemned the Golden Fleece cult, the idolatry full of fanatism, fantasy and unrealistic idealization.

Jesus Christ condemned the false wises who love to sit in the front spots at the church and pray to God pretending to be humble, but disguising their frivolous pride.

Allan Kardec comdemned the "internal enemies" from Spiritism, people can bring the most beautiful appeals to seduce people to accept mistifying and conservative concepts.

It can be painful to much people, but Chico Xavier represents the three worst aspects mentioned above.

He is, although posthumously, adored with the same way of Golden Fleece's idolatry. There's blind adoration, full of fantasy, which makes Chico like a "fairy-godmother" of the Real World.

The reputation of pretense wise is another problem. Chico is recognized as a pretending philosopher, a false thinker of banal phrases and the backward conception to "endure the misfortunes in silence".

And how "internal enemy" of Spiritism Chico Xavier really was!

Their books had several concepts that directly opposite the original Spiritism preceptions.

The fanciful idea of "spiritual cities", conceived through materialistic daydreams, since the Nosso Lar (Our Home) 1943 book, is very reverse to the kardecian concepts about spiritual world.

In his books, Kardec adverted that we still don't have any notion about what really is the spiritual world. Spiritual life probably exists, but there's not any notion about how it really is.

The conservative ideas from Chico Xavier's books and testimonies are also opposite to Kardec's progressive ideas to the human life.

The idea about the "acception to disgrace", without complaining and contestations, is so medieval and inherited both from Jean-Baptiste Roustaing's legacy and from Teology of Sufferance, a Middle Age's chain from Catholic Church, restored in modern era by Mother Teresa of Calcutta.

There's so much differences about the kardecian idea of the human evolution and the xavierian idea about that.

The original kardecian idea is just about learning and knowing new ideas and practices, not necessarily painful and hard.

The xavierian idea is about to suffer and endure adverse situations until the extreme point.

Essentially, Chico Xavier's Spiritism is like a popular saying in Brazil: "The worst, the better".

It's very shocking to much people, because not so much people recognize Chico Xavier as a conservative and right-wing guy.

And he was so conservative at a level to the most conservative members of the United States' Republican Party.

Is hard to accept this, but Chico Xavier is extremely conservative to the point to defend convictedly the brazilian dictatorship, even in its cruelest times.

"Let's pray to the militaries, who are making Brazil to be the Kingdom of Love", said Chico, in his famous Pinga Fogo show interview, aired by TV Tupi Network in 1971.

This idea from Chico Xavier's reactionary side drive most of the followers to cry in sobs.

But it's true: Chico Xavier didn't support any progressive movement and didn't like the workers movements.

In 1989, Chico Xavier supported Fernando Collor to the presidential run, against the left-wing Lula, in its second round.

Near his death, Chico Xavier indicated to support the center-right PSDB candidates. Aécio Neves was the man wished by Chico to be the ideal leader to Brazil's Republic.

For his ideas, we can deduce that Chico Xavier could make the same tendence to the center-right followers, leaning to support the far right.

There's a very great resemblance between Chico Xavier and Jair Bolsonaro's slogans.

Chico said "Brazil, World's Heart, Gospel's Nation". Jair says "Brazil above all, God above everybody".

Two phrases has so identical by meaning, and if can observe both Chico and Jair thoughts, we can surely conclude that they're conservative soulmates.

Really, Chico Xavier ruined the original Spiritism lessons wih his fake literature, conservative ideas and fanciful conceptions about spiritual life.

That's why the teacher Kardec should be so shamed about what have been done with Spiritism.
