What is Spiritualism Religion?

Spiritualism is a new religion that is based on the idea that the spirits of the dead exist and that they can and want to communicate with the living. A place called the “spirit world” isn’t just a place where spirits stay the same. Spiritualists see it as a place where spirits keep growing. People who believe in spiritualism believe that spirits can be communicated with, and that spirits are more advanced than humans. They also believe that spirits can give useful information about moral and ethical issues, and about how God works. Some spiritualists talk about what they call “spirit guides.” These are specific spirits, who are often contacted, who give spiritual advice. He is said to be the father of Spiritualism. Spiritism is a branch of spiritualism that was created by Allan Kardec and is mostly practised in Europe and Latin America, especially in Brazil. It emphasises reincarnation, and it is mostly practised there. A lot of people became spiritualists from the 1840s to the 1920s, mostly in English-speaking countries. More than eight million people were said to be followers of spiritualism in the United States and Europe by 1897. Most of them were from the middle and upper class. Spiritualism thrived for half a century without any canonical texts or formal organisation. It came together through periodicals, trance lectures, camp meetings, and the missionary work of skilled mediums. Many famous spiritualists were women, and like most spiritualists, they were in favour of things like ending slavery and giving women the right to vote. It was in the late 1880s that the informal movement’s credibility began to decline because of accusations of fraud by mediums, so formal spiritualist groups began to form. Spiritualism is mostly done through spiritualist churches in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom.
