The main
highlight of
this issue is
the interview
done by the
journalist Katia
Fabiana
Fernandes, from
London (United
Kingdom),
delivered by the
confrere
Salvador Martin,
president of the
Spanish
Spiritist
Federation, in
the city of
Alicante.
Born in
Manzanares de
Ciudad Real,
Spain, to a
Spiritist
family, Martin
talks on the
interview about
the origins of
the Spiritist
movement in his
country and how
the Spiritist
Doctrine has
been spread
currently in the
country of
Fernandez
Colavida, also
known as the
Spanish Kardec.
About the
importance of
Spiritism in his
life, the
Spanish confrere
is emphatic:
“There are so
many things and
they could be
defined in so
many ways, but
in this moment I
will say that it
has been the
manual to drive
correctly in
life and helps
you not only get
out of if
victorious, but
also living it
happily, with
this happiness
that is not
subjected to
external
circumstances”.
Another
highlight of
this issue is an
interesting
article by
Enrique Eliseo
Baldovino, new
collaborator of
the magazine,
about General
X..., who
obtained
authorization
for the legal
functioning of
the Parisian
Society of
Spiritist
Studies and
whose identity
was only later
revealed. The
Spiritist
Society of
Paris, as we saw
previously, is
celebrating 150
years since
their
foundation.
The cities of
Berlin and
Hamburg staged
important
doctrinal events
on June 21-22,
as reported by
Claudia Werdine,
from Wien
(Austria),
correspondent of
the magazine in
Europe.

We finish in
this issue the
study on the
book Obreiros
da Vida Eterna (Workers
of the Eternal
Life),
by André Luiz,
and it will be
followed by the
book No Mundo
Maior (In the
High World),
also by André
Luiz,
psychographed by
Francisco
Cândido Xavier,
published in
1947 by the
Brazilian
Spiritist
Federation
(FEB).
There are two
new
correspondents
in the magazine
O Consolador:
Christina Nunes,
in Rio de
Janeiro (RJ),
and Isabel
Porras Gonzales,
in Spain,
allowing us to
cover more
precisely the
Spiritist events
that take place
in these
regions. To the
new
collaborators,
our warm welcome
and a bear hug.
