The teacher who initiated me into the first levels of GD tradition many years ago was a Spiritualist Minister, gifted medium, and huge fan of Allan Kardec. I read all of his work with her encouragement and feel like her spirit visited me in your presentation today. Thanks so much for this thought provoking "spooky month" class and the lovely memories that came with it. 😊 ❤

Dr. Puca - Thank you for this video on Kardec. I'm unfamiliar with him. Paranormal investigators and ghost hunters do not know the origins of the field. I'm learning so much today. My friend and mentor, Barb Huyser, founder of the Small Town Ghosts investigation group, applied principles of psychology and behavior in working with ghosts. She called it paranormal social work. Unlike other ghost hunting teams and ghost tourism groups, Barb emphasized the importance of making repeated visits to haunted locations, and some investigations lasted a year or two. In her 40 years in the field, she applied critical thinking and strived to collect evidence to find replicated results. She died 3 years ago. May her work be a legacy and inspiration to future paranormal investigators. Thank you for your work, Dr. Puca.

Kardec also studied the human aura! Medium's & participants also physically make contact with each other to extend their "antenna" & tune into the 7.8 htz of the Schumann resonance, which through the "Collective Theta Link" has access to all the Brain activity of those Dreaming. Materialism, a stillborn epistemology, (as it requires space & time), doesn't have to be atheist, as God could also be material.

Brazilian here. Kardecistas (followers of Kardec spiritsm) usually bundle together umbanda, candomblé, ifá, quimbanda and other cults with spiritism. So Much so that its kinda thought of as all being spiritism. But quimbanda, candomblé and ifa have little influence from Kardec. The picture you showed was seemingly from candomblé. Umbanda is very broad and many umbandas do have Kardec influence. Just to clarify. And please don't take this as criticism. Your work is awesome and even the mention of Brazil in this video shows you've done good research. Enough to see we are the main practicers of Kardec spiritism.

@Psiconauta-cabalista 2 ай бұрын

Well, they exist together so they influence each other. Is just that many candomblé and quimbanda religious leaders might feel bundling together Kardec with candomblé, ifa and quimbanda is whitewashing a afrincan-brazilian tradition.

Good point. Also, its worth to note that all off kardec's doctrine are inspired on christianity and the bible, also broadly refferred as "christian spiritism" while others afro traditionsbof spiritism uses are more ritualized and have its own symbols, archetypes and such.

Dr. Puca, if I may ask? Where did you get the info on Candomble's influence from Spiritism? While I agree with Umbanda, in my conversations with its members and having seen some of its rituals. I would say its spiritual practices and beliefs are very Yoruban/Benin African spiritual practices.

"Do you believe that time can be altered to a single purpose?" (Dracula in Coppola's version. ) No desires may safely cross the Abyss. Having fought for the Christian God and having been in the environment of death for long periods of time, without the rewards of romantic relationships, the Understanding of the nature of duality revealed the contradictions of existence, angered the protagonist. Discovery of the need for the purification of the nature of desires before an attempt at The Master of the Temple degree is exemplified in the failed attempt at Crossing the Abyss in the concept of the "undead " and blood feeding vampyre. 38:37

I'm glad you mentioned evolution because I think it's tied to reincarnation myself. Even Charles Darwin may have been more broad-minded than later neo-Darwinists, I don't think his ideas about evolution are the most relevant in this context. A long time ago, I read a couple of the Victorian novelist, Samuel Butler's books on the subject, and his theory that evolution is concretised memory and a sentient search for solutions, seems closer. Arthur Koestler seemed to have a similar view too. I believe that the work done by researchers such as Denis Noble and Michael Levin are now making the idea that species evolution requires sentience more plausible than ever. Just a word about karma too - I like the idea in some ways, but research by people like Ian Stephenson doesn't seem to obviously support it. Where is the justice in a murder victim being born with the injuries they sustained during their murder. It's a sticky subject though, and it seems as if that happens because it's what people (or their spirits) dwell upon, so you could argue that there's personal responsibility there (though I wouldn't want to say that to them). Also, karma might be a very long game for all I know. Edit: i realise that, as an academic, you have to be careful about endorsing teleological ideas when it comes to evolution, but I think the tide is slowly turning (even if I might be biased) 😅

Maybe you could have compacted this material a bit, there was a certain repetitiveness to it. Having said that, I wonder what your views are on Karnak approach and its similarity to Eastern traditions. It would seem that there are as many views of the world beyond the veil as there are mystics, to me this undermines all of these mystic professors of mystical knowledge. The second thing that bothers me is mysticism should remain esoteric, obviously these professors of mystical knowledge are not following that tradition. There’s a pretty good way of knowing whether a mystic is trying to sell you snake oil, that is if his mouth is open and his lips are moving. My mother was a member of the theosophical society and she bought thousands of these books, and then it closed and she inherited thousands of books, which decades later no one was interested in. This is the nature of people who profess special mysticism knowledge. Everyone wants to know what happens when they die, if you have a cyclical philosophy then you are reincarnated, if you have a apocalyptic philosophy then you go someplace and wait for the kingdom of heaven to come. The problem is the kingdom of heaven did come, from Eridu, Mesopotamia grew and from Uruk heaven was born. And when heaven came the great dynasties followed, thrashing the earth and laying bodies everywhere, that was the great cycle. Zagasi, Sargon, Gutia, Ur III, Larsa, Hammurabi, Hittites, Kassites, Sealand. . . .neo Assyrians, Babylon, Persia, Greek, Rome, Parthians, Islam, Britain, Iraq, US, Iraq, US, Iraq. You have your heaven and you have your cycles of humanity. Drink up an enjoy. In 2 Samuel Saul went to the mystic of Endor enquiring to the priest-judge of the Israelites as to whether he would die. The spirit of Samuel responded why have you disturbed my eternal rest. When humans laid claim to vast swaths of land in empires that brought goods from the Afghanistan to Egypt to Europe, they became thinking of themselves as gods, and they painted their gods in their image and likeness, what they would want to be if they were a god, and the layers of the celestial sky grew as their egos grew. And the sages, the seekers of wisdom walked into the desert. And the great sons of the demagogs in their conceit they did not see the armies of those wanting the glory they had, for their own. This is heaven. The Mesopotamians had a story about a king, from bad Tibera, a shepherd king who ascended to Uruk and married a high priest (Inanna as gods acted through the high priest). When she was killed he went and sat in her chair and fooled around with her priestesses, but when the Inanna returned she cast him into the underworld, so that he could only return yearly and be cast back again. These ancient stories carry wisdom. In another story Adapa became so powerful of a mystic he turned the south wind, fearing his power the gods (Uruk) sent for him seeking to promote him. But his patron god tricked him and denied him status with the gods. In this story Enki’s message is that sages are to serve. These stories are about the cycle of triumph and decay, what goes up inevitably comes down. Of all the original cities of Sumer none have survived, but their children are everywhere and many also have vanished into the sands been rebuilt only to vanish again. If one wants to understand mysticism don’t seek professors of snake oil, walk away. The realm of the passed ones is their domain, just as one doesn’t want people trespassing in their house, then they shouldn’t trespass in the domain of the spirits, it is profane.

"The kingdom of heaven" as the kingdom of spiritual domination... this resonates. This is the Kali Yuga, and many will come to further their own delusion and ignore the principles and exemplars around them. Some will listen to further purify themself from such domination, as without facts like the life of Kardec at hand it is so much easier for influence to hide. Peace.

@Darisiabgal7573 2 ай бұрын

@@lionelchan1601 The first of the cycles began when Bad Tibera, with its copper weapons and abundance of smiths took Eridu. People did not seek heaven at this time, Uruk rose to unify the states, because without the metals, they could not survive, and because of this they turned the sky into the celestial sky, dinger An. This replaced one form of dominance with another. Each living thing has its place in this world, if we pretend otherwise we succumb to the law of unintended. Prior to this people were commuted to the mountain, Kur, Sheol. This is our destiny and to deny this only creates chaos, for it is the acceptance that all men share the same fate, then we seek out others who think differently to understand because otherwise once we share the grave we will only find chaos.

@@Darisiabgal7573 A certain rhythm of what you say here reminds me of, as a non Muslim, reading the Qur'an. The repeating reminder there is of the rise and fall of temporality, and warning against heavenly arrogance (noting that Jannah/The Garden is NOT Heaven, and Gehenna is never mentioned as being underground). Heaven/spirits/gods too are temporal. Also the Qur'an's reminder, both in abstract and in direct guidance, that Man and Woman are very different, and both are of the Creator's blessing. Heaven and Earth as fren-emies, and for the tribes and multitude to accept the wisdom of the diversity of type and level of bestowal. The Earthly to not envy the Heavenly and vice versa.

@Darisiabgal7573 2 ай бұрын

@@lionelchan1601 In its inception, and when I refer to these things I am referring to the oldest written accounts for example Kur was the mountain, which became the underworld. The reason I think this was because the Ubaid people came from hill terrain, they probably took their dead to cave in the hills to let their dead deflesh naturally (cave insect scavenging) before returning the bones to be stored under the their houses. The same appears to be true in Greece where Hades was originally a cave and maintained its association with caves. Heaven literally means the skies in Hebrew. Hasammayim. The ancients divided the skies, in the day you have the four directions or four winds, the sun comes from the house in the east and returned to its station in the west. The night sky was divided into the south (Enki), the central (An, his station in Taurus) and North (Enlil), and major stars and constellations were assigned to gods. The rise of confederation pushed aggregate power to be centralized and that place was Uruk. Uruk resulted from the merger of two villages. I speculate one was of Halaf culture and had developed trade up the Euphrates. In the period that followed trade came to dominate Uruk’s economy as it was further up the Euphrates than Ur, Eridu, Larsa. As a consequence it took a predominant position when it came to interacting with the “outside world” as a consequence one of the gods, just so happens a sky god, became a apex of the heirarchy. It does not appear ever that the sky god was a power god, power gods were about kingship. So that even when the sky god is on top, his power really comes from the support of kings underneath him. This is why in the literature, Anu often agrees with the bad decisions of the council, particularly when Enlil is involved and sort of gently sways the council the other direction when the error is revealed. It is the nature of divine structure in Mesopotamia that there was an interconnect between the celestial and the earthly. That interconnect took place in the temple. The divine imagery was sanctified in its manufacturing and installed in the sanctified places. Thus it is assumed that when a high priest speaks, the divinity is channeling through sacred objects to the priest. The alternate analogy is the temple is the footstool and god is passing notes down to his priests. In the Iconography you see this, a god (the 6 horned hat) sitting on his throne and two or three officials, much smaller in scale lined up to receive his instructions. This iconography thus lends authority to the officials. One can break this down as we first have rituals, this then splits into rituals at some set aside site and then a means of delivering the ritual to the people. The first signs of this are the temple at Eridu about 7300 years ago. Next the intricate process of artistic representation in creating an intermediary form. At this point the oldest gods are probably exiting the scene, being replaced by gods that take on human form (exemplary are the decorated skulls at Jericho). This works because now the priesthood is maintaining the health of the god by ceremonial feeding, but at the same time the process is now becoming exclusive. So as temples go higher and the priesthood becomes more elite, the idea of associating the gods with a heavenly platform is the next step in the process. So heaven for the poorest people in society is an aspiration. We wish we could engage with the gods in an elaborate meal at the top of a temple. It’s a false hope.

From the perspective of believing that spirits are 100% real, spirit communication is still impossible to scientifically prove because: sometimes people trying to channel a particular spirit will unknowingly be tricked by a different spirit or will project their own subconscious desires and habits into the form of the spirit, sometimes spirits lie, sometimes spirits are intentionally vague, many spirits dislike being "tested," sometimes spirits tell people what the spirit thinks they need to hear rather than objective facts, sometimes one person's brain interprets what the spirit is saying differently from how a different person's brain does, spirit manifestations are usually the most powerful in people who already fully believe in that spirit without needing additional empirical evidence and who have cultivated a strong relationship with that entity, it is very easy for skeptics to write off magical synchronicities as mere coincidences, etc. Reports of spirit possession leading to things like speaking fluently in previously unknown languages or consuming deadly toxins without the human host being harmed are some of the more convincing forms of phenomenological evidence, but tend to be hard to reproduce experimentally and such reports are often subject to accusations of lying or exaggeration. Also, spirits have just as widely divergent views on morality as humans do.
