What Is Spiritualism?

In the first video of the 2021 #AllHallowsEveAdvent, Gently Being is sharing a short introduction to the Religious Movement of Spiritualism.

[@hassh1991]

Believe on sipiritualism, "God" will give you ways and make you satisfied.

[@hassh1991]

About Sipiritualism, it is "God" knowledge that nobody can understand, but should believe on it.

[@missusmoon3867]

I love my spiritualist church, I gave talks that are still talked about today.

[@valterlifilho]

In Brazil, we have spiritism from Allan Kardec, Chico Xavier and others

[@GentlyBeing]

Thanks so much for sharing 💖

I'm a bit late, but thank you for this video!! I discovered recently that I might be a spiritualist, and I'm struggling to find videos explaining it a bit more. This video really helped!!

[@GentlyBeing]

I am so happy you found the video helpful 💖

[@derek9301]

Thank you for including Sojourner Truth.

[@GentlyBeing]

She is such an important figure in the history of The United States and Spiritualism. I wish I knew more about her time living in Harmonia,Michigan and the Spiritualist utopia that was trying to be created there. Thanks so much for watching 💖

[@janesmith1398]

Thank you. 💜 I'm a 5th generation Spiritualist.

Hi, contacting the dead or any spirits is strictly forbidden in the Holy Bible because only demons (fallen angels!) will answer! Please know that ghosts, aliens, BF and the likes are demons who can appear in any form in order to distract humans from the living GOD. Born again Christians have the authority to rebuke them in the name of our Lord and Savior JESUS CHRIST! How to become born again? Thank JESUS for paying for your sins on the cross and HIS resurrection on th 3rd day!!! It must come from the bottom of your heart and don't forget, JESUS is GOD, see John 1! Don't give demons a foothold and don't contact them, the Bible strictly forbids occultism and spiritism. Please check out this link and get rid of all occult items and practices. Check out the occults objects list online. Greetings from Canada

[@mogbaba]

Thank you for your short and precise description. Except for the experience of those girls hearing a knock on their door, I'd like to know if there is any other source for this idea.

[@francisfischer7620]

Very interesting!

[@Shadrak-jb6lx]

That was lovely and a very full explanation easily understood. Thank you very much.

Thank you so much for your kind comment 💖

My Dad was a Spiritualist and I sometimes would go to the services with him.Although i am a believer in some form of afterlife i must say that I never saw anything to convince me at the services although I have observed a few phenomena outside of that context.

"Only the Creator Can Save You Already in a grave calamity, yet you cannot see Only by returning to tradition can you be saved and washed clean You are harming yourself with modern notions and conduct The red demon deceives you with atheism and evolution Formation, stability, degeneration, and disintegration are laws-the cosmos is dissolving Humans and Gods are all in danger, no one feels secure Most people are Gods incarnate, coming here to take refuge Awaiting the Creator to renew the cosmos and save all beings In colossal danger, only He can save you, none can compare December 10, 2017" Master Li Hongzhi (Hong Yin VI, from Falun Dafa teachings)

Thanks

Great show lass 👍

[@julietjones756]

This is a lot wonderful information that I couldn’t find online when i was trying to research this topic!

[@GentlyBeing]

Oh my goodness! Thanks so much for your comment. I am so happy you found the video useful. One of the books I found really useful in my research was 'The Darkened Room' by Alex Owens. The book focuses on the spiritualism movement in late Victorian England.

[@GentlyBeing]

@Amazoom I definitely think you will enjoy the book! It provides a good overview of spiritualism in Victorian England.Thanks so much for sharing about your experiences growing up and living in England. I bet the church in your village is beautiful 😍 I also love homes that were built in the late 1800s. They always have so much much character and thought put into the design.

[@abigailirvine3414]

So enjoyed this video thank you 🙏

[@GentlyBeing]

I am so happy you enjoyed the video 😊 I had a lot of fun preparing and making this video.Thanks so much for watching!

Some similarities with Buddhism

[@noahdarby-villis1157]

Very interesting video. You mention how spirtualism has its orgins in quaker chistianity, would you consider modern spiritualism to still be a Christian denomination, a seprate but still Abrahamic religion or something entirely different?

[@7392318]

Spiritualists take wisdom from many religions, cultures and leaders. They will use Christ’s teachings but will use other religious teachings as well. Christianity believes in life after death. Spiritualists take it a step further by speaking to those that have passed. Spiritualists believe in guidance from angels, and angels are in the bible. Spiritualists can also have saints as guides which references the catholic church. I attend a Spiritualist summer camp that has a picture of Jesus in their temple.

[@noahdarby-villis1157]

@@7392318 thank you very interesting

[@TonySantuccistudios]

Yup

[@raniafowler4599]

Thank you for sharing! I do enjoy your videos :) I am also super curious about where you live! It looks like I've seen you in a tiny home and now possibly a yurt?!

[@GentlyBeing]

Thanks so much for watching! I spend about half my time on a small island in Ontario. It is off grid and I have a 3 season Vardo I sleep in and also a yurt (that is 4 season) that is shared. There is also a separate shepherd's hut that has a small kitchen. We are working at planting trees and turning the space into a little sanctuary for nature.

[@raniafowler4599]

@@GentlyBeing that sounds wonderful. I am south of you in Ohio, USA. Thank you again!

[@juliecaswell4175]

I recognise the photo you have of the inside of a spiritualist church, it’s the one I attend - Wimbledon spiritualist church , south west London, England. Enjoyed the video, thank you x

[@GentlyBeing]

That is so wonderful! Thank you so much for sharing 💖 It looks like a lovely church. I live in Canada so I have not been there. Thank you so much for watching and for your sweet comment ☺

[@DrPatTucci]

Real spiritualism has nothing to do with Devination.

[@Parzival224]

Given that I believe in mediumistic phenomena, I wonder why we don't see true and powerful mediums like Douglas Home, Eusapia Palladino or Angela Cottin.

[@syedasghar4782]

Can u talk with spirits

[@Kenji17171]

Thank you very helpful

In fact, spiritualism began back in Eden with the serpent’s lie to Eve, “You will not surely die” (Gen. 3:4, NKJV). This idea also lay at the root of one of the greatest spurious religious movements of the nineteenth century with the Fox sisters’ claim, later admitted to be fraudulent, that they could receive answers to their questions from spirits of the dead.

Misguided about AGNOSTICISM In ancient Greek, A means nothing, there is no, nihilism. Something which doesn't exist or never be. That's a contrary on East tradition, by this case, in India - Hinduism. A means something which exist or "being". "Being" as a word reffered to a word of creature. Like a word "a-gama" in Sanskrit, the languange of Hinduism. Since past, West and East always contradictive. A word "Being" presented by many forms. Could be something divine, then it will be "supreme being". now, we could fingered what describes its purposed. Gnosis is something spirtual but not religious. Its meant "trust". And inside "trust" there is "conviction". Then appeared a term "mystic" from it. Something what belief had a supernatural power. When this "spiritual" meet and mixed by something "religious" so it called "syncretic". Mystic actually about knowledge of soul not by modern science meaning, like psychology science. Its about supernatural power which could control creatures. And it came from soul, precisely, human soul. So, it's so related by the anthropocentric understanding which also connected by a belief of Deism. In Java, Indonesia, it calls Ilmu Kebatinan although a word of Batin refers to the inner man or stomach or belly. Sufism often had been pointed as samelike mysticism, but it's wrong. Sufism discussion about the heart of human. Not about the soul moreover inner man/belly. Meanwhile something religious came form religion brings something higher, called spiritual. Spiritual derived from a word of Spirit. Then we know about a term Holy Spirit. So we must separate those by terms according its field discussion, ie about human soul, human original energy through his stomach as its natural draft, the field of spirit and the science of the heart. Four natural khowledgement for a form of human existences.

Spiritualism is demonic
