Description

The Mediums' Book sees Allan Kardec introduce and explain how human beings can communicate with the vast spiritual realm. Through this book, we learn how to contact spirits of human ancestors, and identify both the good and evil among them.An excellent book of spiritual guidance, Kardec explains the methods of mediumship. How a seeker of the spirits can build an understanding of the practices needed to summon, and how the rituals must be carried out, is covered in many detailed chapters. Kardec is honest about the pitfalls; upsetting the spirits, or incurring the wrath and misfortune unleashed by malevolent spirits, is something a medium must always be cautious of.In studying the behavior of the spirits, Kardec answers questions about whether they attach themselves to people or objects. We discover why spirits can manifest even without the presence of a learned medium; such as in haunted houses or other sites. Such appearances are shown to be important: sightings indicate man's willingness to gain affinity with spirits, and the need of spirits to communicate with the physical world.We hear about the different types of medium, each of which are ideal for certain events. Some sorts of medianimity are used to form a bond with ancestor spirits, such as in meetings between families. Others are used to pacify bad spirits, or cleanse a haunted place of malevolent influences. Learning to write clearly is a needed skill - many mediums, in the midst of communing with the spirits beyond, receive messages that must be written down quickly.Kardec reveals that there is a hierarchy of spirits, and that some spirits can be good or benevolent. Others, such as those who have suffered wrongs in life, can be evil or vengeful. The medium must not only distinguish the spirits' moral leanings, but also determine who they were by observing their language, the words they prefer, and how they view contact with living humans. Often, creating an affinity with a spirit takes time and care.Allan Kardec spent years in groups conducting seances and rituals. With a background in the sciences, he knew the importance of recording what he saw, so that practitioners of mediumship could put this knowledge to use. In these meetings, he witnessed the practitioner make contact with spirits both good and bad; how they asked the spirit a question, or simply hear what it had to say. Read more

  • Interesting book
Great price

  • To Be Born Again what did Jesus really mean?
This is the second book in the series of about 5 books written under the pseudo name of Allan Kardec. The first in the series is the Book of Spirits. In the Book of Mediums, Kardec a French Intellectual, Professor and Scientist of his time (1860s), continues to reveal what had mostly up to that time been hidden of the very active world of Spirits around us. Many theological concepts will be challenged in these books, however, the discerning student will see the truth in the words which were given to Kardec by various Spirits through the use of Mediums. This book describes the process of what mediums do and how to identify fakes. Also how to know if the Spirit the medium has connected with is who it says it is? Realizing that every human being is a medium Kardec gives directions how one may develop the activity to a higher level. He also warns of potential harm. Anyone interested in learning about Spiritism presented from a Christian perspective would want to read these books in the order they were published. I would have rated the book 5 stars easily, but for the frequent minor misprint and mistranslation. Those are just small distractions that do not interfere with the interpretation of the material. Reading these books is not hard and I think application of common sense will go a long way toward personal validation of what is stated to the reader. I have concluded that for myself this codification of Spiritism in the books by Allan Kardec is the most important material I have ever read. ... show more

  • A classic for serious students.
I read the book twice and I will probably read it again. Kardec lets the spirits educate us about how to be good mediums So if you want to be a helpful medium or you are very serious about finding proper mediums to help you, then this classic book is for you.

  • Did Not Finish This
Unfortunately, I did not care for this because the subject matter was not at all what I was expecting. According to the title, it should have been about "Mediums", or his career as a Medium.. It is not. I did not read the entire book but what I did read was all about "Spiritism". Nothing about being a "Medium" at all, not even one word. Being a medium was not even mentioned. I think Allan Kardec was a pretty famous Brazilian Medium in the late 19th century; this is an English translation I believe. So, I thought this might be an interesting book about being a Medium. It is not. From the little I did read it's about being a "Spiritist". It's also very redundant. Mr. Kardec may have been a very good Medium, just maybe not a very interesting writer. Therefore, I'm going to return it. ... show more

  • Enlightening, Demystifying, Mind-Opening, Fascinating.
This is the clearest, the most demystifying and eye-opening book that deals with the always-existing phenomenon of communicability between alive human beings and human beings who are not alive anymore (AKA "Spirits"). The Mediums' Book is certainly going to make you much more aware of the sublime ideas of Mediumship, Spirits and Faith. It will guide you in your self-discovery and in the enlightening ideas of seeing the Spiritual realm as something as natural as Biology, and your thirst for knowledge will be increased considerably. Simply fascinating, easy to understand and mind-opening. Read it prayerfully, with the logic of a scientist and with the heart of a monk. Analyse it rationally and discuss it with your own consciousness. Happy Reading. ... show more

Really enjoyed this. Recommended it to a friend and they purchased it and enjoyed it as well. Definitely gives you a perspective/insight to things that you probably never thought of as a spiritualist. It makes sense of the things we don’t really have answers to — where science and spiritualism meet. Love it. Really thick read. ... show more
