A chat with
Maria
José Maritan, from
Três Corações-MG
This week’s editorial "The
disguises we use in the
world" comments on the
idea, present in Kardec’s
work, that physical bodies
are merely disguises with
which the spirits come into
this world to progress.
Maria José Maritan
Cavalcante de Albuquerque,
from
Três Corações-MG,
is our interviewee today. In
the interview, she talks
about the social work
started in her city by
Captain Vendramini, one of
the great figures of the
local Spiritist movement.
The article, written by
Orson Peter Carrara, is one
of the highlights of this
edition.
Another highlight is the
special article titled "Facing
Death," by José Passini,
member of the Editorial
Board of this journal. In
the article, Passini says it
is deeply strange that
creatures are so painfully
unprepared in the face of
the only certainty common to
us all: the certainty of
death.
A special ceremony honoring
the speaker Divaldo Franco
was held on November 6th
in the House of
Representatives in
Brasilia-DF. One of the
legislators present was
Congressman Colbert Martins,
author of the tribute
project to the medium, as
shown in the report that we
published in this edition.

On a day like yesterday -
November 15th –
the 1st Brazilian
Congress of Spiritist
Journalists was held in Rio
de Janeiro in 1939 the.
Conceived and chaired by
Deolindo Amorim, this
important event, which did
not count on the support of
the Brazilian Spiritist
Federation, was held at the
Brazilian Press Association.
