The spirit therapy is all based on love

Take the hand of a violent mentally brain sick man and ask, with all the affection, to let him go - even when he heard the policeman's proviso that this patient needed three men to be tied up - and he, once loose, docilely accompany the person to one of the many little rooms built for this mister in the backyard...

Thus did some spirits in various corners of the country, imbued with an undisputed moral authority, beginning what we can call true "spirit psychiatry." Cairbar Schutel and Anita Borela de Oliveira were protagonists of episodes like the reported one.

Beyond obsession, mental illness is still little known today. A diagnosis of schizophrenia takes about ten years to be meticulously categorized. Moreover, there is no proper term separating obsession with mental illness.

A respected spirit psychiatrist, also a medium and a member of the disobsession group at the spirit hospital where he used to work, once gave us the testimony in public that, on several occasions, a case initially assessed as an obsession was, in fact, mental disease. And in another circumstance, when someone was presented with a clear indication of a supposed mental illness, it was later discovered that this was a case of obsession, such as the similarity of the outbreaks caused in either case.

Neio Lucio states in one of his constant reports in the book Jesus at Home, that the Master once said at Peter’s house in Capernaum that "love covers a multitude of sins."

Now, spirit therapy is all based on love. Love must take care of the patients, without neglecting to observe the norms and protocols pertinent to the safe and scientific care of patients.

The nursing team, more directly in contact with the patients, must be always trained, qualified and updated to fit the differentiated nursing inherent to the mental health nosocomials. We must all remember that in caring for these special patients, we may also be covering a multitude of past errors.

The problem of love applied to concrete attitudes has gained a new dimension, from spirit teachings.

Love is not, of course, a panacea that heals any and all pain. But it will always be welcome and will take effect when it reaches the heart of the subject, inspiring it to the decision to also help itself.

Happiness is the heir of trust. Trust in God is an appanage of hopeful spirits. Bringing the next hope, confidence and healthy feelings should be the first goal of the team of doctors and nursing and all professionals responsible for the care of the suffering. In a sense, the entire hospital complex should be a temple of God's love dedicated to the goal of transmitting love to the sick who are treated there, as well as to those who mourn there.

With all this, a whole plan of work can be developed, different from the hospitals of general affections. Not only for the need of specialization, but also for the possibility of gathering efforts around the service by love.

This is certainly a difficult reality to materialize, because there are many obstacles, starting with the lack of commitment of health professionals. In addition, the opinions of psychiatrists are generally discordant, since not all are spirits and not all accept alternative therapies, such as the use of bioenergy and even homeopathy. There is still a lot of prejudice in the medical world, a reality that needs to be changed - and we are sure that we will all benefit from it.
