Forgive
seventy times seven times,
this is what the law of God
recommends to us
"Forgive seventy times seven
times - until offenses don't
bother us!" With this phrase
Gebaldo José de Sousa closes
the Special of this edition,
entitled “Forgive
unlimitedly!” In the
article, he reminds us that
true love is allied with
compassion, but in fact we
usually act like the old
caravanner mentioned by
Malba Tahan in one of his
stories: we misuse our time
on Earth when we could, in
every moment, to rewrite our
destiny with the constant
practice of good.
“It is very good to be a
spiritist, it is even better
to practice it” – words of
Joaquim Veloso Filho, our
interviewee today. He was
born in Unaí (MG), but
currently residing in Monte
Carmelo, in the same state,
he participates in the
activities of the Humility,
Love and Light Spiritist
Association (Associação
Espírita Humildade, Amor e
Luz), in his city, as he
tells us in an interview,
which he kindly granted to
our collaborator Orson Peter
Carrara.
On a day like today, January
23, Deolindo Amorim was born
in 1906 in Baixa Grande
(BA), who passed away at the
age of 78 in the city of Rio
de Janeiro. Journalist,
writer and lecturer admired
throughout the country,
Deolindo Amorim collaborated
in practically the entire
Brazilian spiritist press,
and it is to him that the
Spiritist Culture Institute
of Brazil (Instituto de
Cultura Espírita do Brasil –
ICEB) was founded in
December 1957.
