Letter to the reader

Year 17 - 832 - July 16, 2023

The moral improvement of our planet depends on our own improvement


The thought above is from our interviewee, Ulisses Baptista, from São Paulo, capital. Graduated in Business Administration, he works professionally as a Stockbroker and participates in the activities of the Nosso Lar Beneficent Institution, in which he is one of the speakers. In 2015 he launched the blog Regeneração do Bem, which has expanded and now constitutes an important collection of doctrinal information, the subject of the interview published in this issue.


Leonardo Marmo Moreira presents us the 3rd and last part of his article entitled “Kardec teaches obsession, disobsession and spiritual treatment”, in which he breaks down the case known as “Morzine's possessions” and its consequences on the studies and conclusions of Kardec to concerning the themes of obsession and possession. Earlier parts of the article appeared in issues 830 and 831.


On a day like today, July 16, 1194, in the city of Assisi, in the region of Umbria, Italy, Clara de Assis, founder of the Order of Santa Clara or Order of Clarissas, was born. According to the idea that circulates in the Brazilian Spiritist milieu, Clara de Assis, Joana de Cusa – who lived at the time of Jesus – and Joanna de Ângelis, Divaldo Franco's spiritual mentor, would be the same individuality.
