Advances in science and the needs of the heart

When we consolidate all the material that makes up the issue of Spirit Sheet This February, we are happy to share with you some timely reflections that are also full of hope. This is the case, for example, with the article by Dr. Ricardo de Souza Cavalcante, who reveals very clearly how the collective efforts of scientists around the world can present humanity with some ways to reduce the impact of Covid-19, showing relevant data on the importance of vaccination throughout history. It also offers an invitation, with scientific data and spiritual revelations, about the impact of our emotions on our immune status.

Dr. Vicente Pessoa Jr., in an article based on his talk at the first AME-International Virtual Congress, gives us a real cultural bath by retrieving information about the role of pandemics throughout history and also shows us their importance in driving developments in various areas. It's well worth a read.

In times of so many discussions, discoveries and practices for the healing of humanity with regard to the impacts of the pandemic, we find in Sandra Marinho's reflections, in the column “Educate your Soul”, a safe roadmap based on the lessons of Christ for the true process of healing the soul in the situations of our daily lives. If we seek healing for the body with so much emphasis and, of course, with the need that the emergency situation brings us, we must not forget to delve into the true healing of the soul.

The moving account of a clinical case in the column “Diary of a Spiritist Doctor” is a clear sign for us of the paths that have been taken over the years and, certainly, in the current moment that we are living in, should be expanded more and more, which is the effective practice of spirituality in patient care.

Our hearts are calmed when we read in W.A. Cuin's column that we need to continue sowing good, love and Christian values without being in a hurry to reap the harvest, with the main aim of developing our understanding that everything follows the divine plan of our Master Jesus.

As we can see, February brings us excellent reflections, which reinforce the words of the benefactor Emmanuel in The Comforter, In question 204, we are told: “Feeling and wisdom are the two wings with which the soul will rise to infinite perfection. In the small circle of the earthly orb, both are classified as moral advancement and intellectual advancement, but since we are examining the values of the world in particular, we must recognize that both are indispensable to progress, but it is fair to consider the superiority of the former over the latter, since the intellectual part without the moral can offer numerous prospects of falling, in the repetition of experiences, while moral advancement will never be excessive, representing the most important nucleus of evolutionary energies.”.

So, while we have been following the advances in science and technology, which have provided us with answers to the challenges of human evolution, as well as to the needs of the present moment, we cannot fail to put into practice and propagate the needs of evolution and the development of the “wing of feeling”, as the benefactor rightly explains to us. If, in the past, pandemics gave us scientific and material advances, nowadays the invitation is for us to grow in moral values and continue to sow the seeds of good and love on Earth, doing our part. Let's count on the advances of science without forgetting the need to transform our hearts.

May Jesus always support us on this journey!
