Be Medium
Mediumship is a natural faculty of the human being. Everyone has it, though to different degrees. It has always existed, everywhere and at all times. It can be said that almost all religions were born through it.
However, it was on March 31, 1848 that a true mediumistic explosion took place, which would soon spread to the United States and later to Europe, but it was the in-depth study, with scientific bases by Allan Kardec, that standardized the mediumistic practice in Spiritism. We say in Spiritism, because the Spiritist Doctrine cannot interfere in sects or religions that use mediumship.
The Mediums' Book, the most perfect compendium on mediumship ever published in the world, has safe guidelines for those who wish to enter this field of knowledge. No mediumship course can ignore the guidelines left by Allan Kardec, who was not a secretary of the spirits, as some retrograde spiritists still think, but an elaborater, a builder of the Spiritist Doctrine, aided by a huge range of superior spirits.
Some guidelines are simple and need to be thought through and practiced. For example: free mediumship. A price cannot be placed on the work of spirits, nor on sounding currency, nor on flattery that leads to undue privileges.
We are all mediums, and mediumship is not a problem nor does it cause suffering. However, we recognize that there are people who are more vulnerable to the action of spirits, and they should not deal with mediumship without strict control by someone with great knowledge and experience. Who are they? Exotic people, excessively mystical, with personality deviations. People who are mentally incapable, or with a deficit of intelligence or manifest affective lack. Overly gullible people because they are easily fascinated by people and spirits. Also, children should not deal with mediumship because they lack discernment and can abuse their conditions and have adverse reactions.
Being a medium does not mean being a missionary, having special missions, it is not a savior of the world, nor a dispenser of God's graces. It's just being intermediary between two planes of life in the universe.
