How Eurípedes
Barsanulfo got into
Spiritism
It all started in the last
century, in the year 1903,
says Rogério Coelho, who
tells us this story in the
special entitled The “Way
to Damascus” by Eurípedes
Barsanulfo. According to
the research carried out by
the columnist, it would have
been a priest of the
Catholic Church who – albeit
indirectly – placed
Eurípedes Barsanulfo in the
spiritist ranks, in which he
is considered one of the
most eminent figures of
Spiritism in Brazil.
