How to overcome the challenges brought by the pandemic


As it is well known, the suspension of face-to-face activities carried out by the spiritist centers constituted a huge challenge that the spiritists had to face and overcome. We have already mentioned many examples of similar overcoming in our magazine and today we present another one, described in the interview that our collaborator Marcus Braga did with our colleagues in spiritist work Aline Braga and Grazielle Muzitano, from the Spiritist House Amazonas Hércules, in Rio de Janeiro (RJ). The interview is one of the highlights of this edition.

Another highlight is the Special “The Good Samaritan and the Good Baiano: a sociopsychological analysis”, authored by Professor Almir Del Prette, from the Federal University of São Carlos (SP). In the article he says that there are many passages from the gospels that pose challenges to the different contemporary scientific disciplines. One of them is the narrative contained in the well-known parable of the Good Samaritan, analyzed by him along with an event that took place in Feira de Santana (BA), in which the central character acted just like the good Samaritan.

On Wednesday, May 25th, EVOC – Virtual Publisher The comforter published the e-book "Sick Personalities - A spiritist model of mental disorders", authored by Chrystian Barroso Chaves, Ely Edison da Silva Matos and Ricardo Baesso de Oliveira, all linked to the spiritist movement of Juiz de Fora (MG). The book, as with all EVOC publications, can be read or downloaded for free.
