Answers to questions
A. How is it generated magnetized water?
The Spirit can operate on elementary matter, by his will, giving it certain properties. This is a beneficial substance may become poisoned by a simple modification, the chemistry offers numerous examples. Everyone knows that two ratios may result in that it is deleterious. One part oxygen and two hydrogen atoms, all two harmless form water, gathered together an oxygen atom and have a corrosive liquid. Without changing the proportions, sometimes just a simple change in the mode of molecular aggregation to modify the properties, so that an opaque body may become transparent and vice versa. As the Spirit has, at its sole will, as a powerful action on elementary matter, which gives rise to all bodies, is conceived that it can not only form substances, but also change their properties, then the effect of making a reactive. In the magnetization of water, the Spirit who acts is the magnetizer, most often assisted by a foreign spirit. He operates a transmutation in the water with the help of magnetic fluid that, as we know, is the substance that is closest to the cosmic matter or universal element. May operate as a change in the properties of water, can also produce an analogous phenomenon on the body fluids, and hence the curative effect of magnetic action adequately addressed. (Items 129-131)
B. The objects used by the spirits of his appearances are real?
Yes, the Spirit has on the material elements throughout the space a power which man is far from suspecting. He may, at its discretion, to focus these elements and give them the apparent shape their own objects, thereby mimicking the objects land necessary for their identification against those who see it. (Item 128, paragraphs 2-4)
C. The clothes worn by the spirits are copies of land?
This is not what happens. The clothes and objects used by the Spirit are produced by himself, may or may not have the appearance of parts used in his last incarnation on earth. The Spirit can print the committee etherised changes to his will, and thus produce the costumes, jewelry and any decorations that you need at any given time, under such power to their degree of evolution. (Item 128, paragraphs 4-6)
D. All spirits know how to produce objects that use?
No. often contribute to the formation of an object by an instinctive act that they themselves do not understand, if not well understood at this. Although the inferior spirits may have this power, the more the Spirit is high, the more easily does. (Item 128, paragraphs 14-16)
