Easter
“…I have greatly desired to eat this
Passover with you before I suffer. For I tell
you, I will not eat it again until it is fulfilled in
the kingdom of God.”
“Also, he took a loaf, gave thanks, broke it,
and gave it to them, saying: “ this means
my body with is to be given in your behalf.
Keep doing this in remembrance of me.”

6. Spiritism and Easter

new morals; it only makes it easier
for mankind to understand and
practise Christ's morals by giving
an unshakable and enlightened
faith…”
The Gospel According to Spiritism - Chapter XVII - item 4

7. Spiritism and Easter
Spiritist teachings codified by Allan Kardec has no dogmas, rituals,
celebrations and commemorations.
Spiritism helps to understand the events of Jesus teaching when
reincarnated on Earth.
For the Spiritist Easter is like any other period of the year, can be a
moment of reflection, study and reaffirmation our compromise with
Jesus’s teachings.

8. Spiritism and Easter
Easter can be interpreted as our release of the human tendency of
selfishness, in contribution to our self-development path towards
perfection.
It’s a spiritual transformation, leaving our old habits, mistakes, vices,
greed and etc. behind and walk towards to a life with more plenitude
and spiritual connection.

9. Spiritism and Easter
Celebrate Easter. Yours one, as in your transformation towards to a
life full off plenitude.
