Tiré de l'ouvrage L'Evangile selon le Spiritisme, cet ensemble de prières offre un support à la pensée lau moment de prier. Cet ouvrage propose une analyse de Notre père, l'oraison dominicale, puis des prières pour les réunions spirites, pour les médiums, pour soi, pour des personnes malades, pour les proches décédés...Extrait : Les Esprits ne prescrivent aucune formule absolue de prières ; lorsqu'ils en donnent, c'est afin de fixer les idées, et surtout pour appeler l'attention sur certains principes de la doctrine spirite. C'est aussi dans le but de venir en aide aux personnes qui sont embarrassées pour rendre leurs idées, car il en est qui ne croiraient pas avoir réellement prié si leurs pensées n'étaient pas formulées.Le recueil de prières contenues dans ce chapitre est un choix fait parmi celles qui ont été dictées par les Esprits en différentes circonstances ; ils ont pu en dicter d'autres, et en d'autres termes, appropriées à certaines idées ou à des cas spéciaux, mais peu importe la forme, si la pensée fondamentale est la même. Le but de la prière est d'élever notre âme à Dieu ; la diversité des formules ne doit établir aucune différence entre ceux qui croient en lui, et encore moins entre les adeptes du Spiritisme, car Dieu les accepte toutes lorsqu'elles sont sincères.

Allan Kardec's supreme handbook about the world of the spirits and the movement of Spiritism is a valuable and insightful guide to existences beyond our corporeal realm.Kardec begins this work by delving into the historical significance of spirits, their connection with God and the physical universe. How spirits are situated in the world, and how they move unseen between the planes of existence, is discussed. The second part concentrates on The Spirit World in greater detail. The types of spirits and how they are incarnated are detailed, with Kardec proposing that several distinct planes of existence are extant, and that most individuals proceed through life without knowing or seeing their influence. A chapter is devoted to how spirits might intervene in our everyday, corporeal world. Often these excursions have a purpose; the spirits are on a mission to inform someone, or change something, that harmony may be restored.

Es el marco inicial de una doctrina que ha ocasionado profundas repercusiones en el pensamiento y la visión acerca de la vida de una considerable porción de la humanidad. Su estructura está compuesta por cuatro partes que contienen 1000 cuestiones formuladas por Allan Kardec, el Codificador del Espiritismo.

'The Spirits Book' (1857), written by Allan Kardec, is widely regarded as the most important piece of writing in the 'Spiritist' canon. It is the first in a series of five books that Kardec wrote that are collectively known as the 'Spiritist Codification'. Although the other four books; 'The Medium's Book', 'The Gospel According to Spiritism', 'Heaven and Hell' and 'The Genesis According to Spiritism' are of great importance to the Spiritist movement it is 'The Spirits Book' that lays out the doctrine of the belief system. The Spiritist movement was founded by Allen Kardec and although its roots lay in Spiritualism there are differences in belief. The most important of these differences is the Spiritist belief in reincarnation. Although some Spiritualists believe in reincarnation and some do not, all Spiritists consider it as a basic truth of their ideology. In the 1850's, whilst investigating the afterlife, Kardec communicated in séances with a collection of spirits named 'The Spirit of Truth' who discussed many important topics such as life after death, good and evil, the universe and the origin of spirits, amongst others. 'The Spirit of Truth' counted many of history's great thinkers amongst its number such as Thomas of Aquino, Voltaire and Augustine of Hippo. Over time and after several sessions with the group Kardec had gathered enough information to convince him of life after death and he was compelled to spread the teachings of 'The Spirit of Truth'. He 'codified' their comments and listed them as answers to questions and this is the content of 'The Spirits Book'. The subjects that Kardec discusses, via 'The Spirit of Truth', laid down the foundations for the Spiritist philosophy and all of the concepts that would become, and still are, key to the movement's thinking have their genesis in the book. The belief that there is one Supreme Being, God, who created everything in the universe, is postulated. According to the text the Devil does not exist and Jesus is a messenger of God. Although the book does not refer to Jesus as the son of God and no mention is made of the 'immaculate conception' he is considered God's perfect messenger and his teachings are to be adhered to. Reincarnation and the survival of the soul after death are vital beliefs and it is stated that it is through reincarnation that lessons are learnt that can be taken into the next life and that every life moves the soul closer to perfection. According to the book man is made up of three separate elements; the body, the spirit and the spiritual body. One's spirit also predates the matter of the universe and will outlast it. After the publication of 'The Spirits Book' Kardec's Spiritist doctrine began to take root, firstly in France from where it spread throughout Europe and found its way to North America. Most significant, however, was the reaction to Spiritism in South America. In Brazil the Spiritist movement swept across the nation and it is still one of the country's main religions to this day with millions of Kardec's followers from Brazil visiting his tombstone in Paris every year.
