Gustavo Cesar Gandolfi speaks to the magazine


“A difficult and sometimes inglorious fight” is the title of our editorial which comments about fight difficulty that as still imperfect creatures, we fight against the old man that lives in us.

Gustavo Cesar Gandolfi, from Araraquara (SP), is spirit since childhood and is our interviewee. He is the founder and current president of the Chico Xavier Fraternity House in his town. He tells us about the institution developed activities that at the moment goes for building its own headquarters.

“Survival or immortality of the   soul?” is the title of the Especial authored by José Passini, member of the Editorial Board of this magazine. Passini believes that it is inappropriate the expression survival of the soul when occurs death phenomenon, because it only survives who is at the risk of dying. Soul, which is immortal, just freedom from physical body.

The 3ª Cultural Week of the Spirit Centre Our Home was held from July 21st to July 29th. It was a great success how it is shown by the especial report which integrates the present edition and it is one of the spots.
