The Name vs. the Message
Too often, mediums
concern themselves with the names of the spirits who communicate through their
mediumship. Spiritism teaches us an important lesson, however, which is
that by giving such importance to names, one can easily fall prey to frivolous
and deceptive spirits, and that it is more important to concentrate on the
quality and content of the messages, through which the spirits always reveal
their true nature. Mediums can learn how to make such an analysis through
the study of Spiritist texts and with the help and instruction they receive at the Spiritist
center.
