Is there a
relationship between
mediumship and obsession?
The proposed question is the
theme developed by our
collaborator Paulo da Silva
Neto Sobrinho in the Special
that illustrates the present
edition with the title “Who
suffers obsession would be a
medium?” The answer that the
writer himself presents in
his article is affirmative,
that is, if a person is
obsessed, of course he is a
medium, even if he does not
have a specific task to be
accomplished in this area.
It is important, however, to
know the arguments that the
author of the article
gathered to reach a similar
conclusion. The Special is
one of the highlights of
this issue.
Another highlight is the
interview that the current
vice-president of Geepe
(Paulo and Estêvão Spiritist
Studies Group), Pedro Lúcio
Pereira Girio Moreira, gave
to our collaborator Paula
Kloser, who has been living
in Switzerland for some
time. He was born in East
Timor, but has been living
in Switzerland for many
years, our interviewee
participates there, in the
role of Secretary, of the
board of the Swiss Spiritist
Federation (Fesuisse).
On a day like today
(February 20), in the year
1822, Mother Joanna Angélica
de Jesus, considered the
first heroine of the epic of
the Independence of Brazil,
died in Salvador (BA),
murdered when preventing the
invasion of the Convent of
Nossa Senhora da Conceição.
da Lapa by Portuguese
soldiers. The aforementioned
heroine was, as it is well
known, Joana de Cusa, one of
the martyrs of early
Christianity, and is known
to all of us today as Joanna
de Ângelis, mentor of the
orator and medium Divaldo
Franco.
