On 18th April 2007, this magazine was born and then it turns two years old of existence this week. Having passed this time, we can say that the goals have been accomplished as they were imagined and the feedback obtained from either inside and outside Brazil has overcome all expectations, as the reader can see in this edition editorial, entitled “Two years later”.  

Former president of the Spiritist Federation of Rio Grande do Sul state, with half a century of services provided in benefit of the Spiritist cause, Nilton Stamm de Andrade tells his trajectory in the Spiritist Movement and makes relevant considerations about the role of the Spiritist Center in today’s world, during the interview conceded to the editor Antonio Augusto Nascimento, which is one the headlines in this edition. 

One of the most critical problems of our Spiritual evolution consists in changing our inside. “Such a change, proposed by the Spiritism as our big moral fight, is doubtless indispensable so that we can really educate”, says Maria Eny Rossetini Paiva from Lins (SP) in the special article “Interior transformation and moral perfection”, another headline this week. 

Two years after being founded, the magazine “O Consolador” has already reached 83 countries across all the continents of the globe, fact that evidences the importance of its creation in a globalized world, having the Internet as the fastest and economic mean by which people can get the information they really want, as shown in the special report in this edition.
