Text below is an excerpt from The Spirits' Book ('Prolegomena').

"The vanity of some men, who imagine that they know everything, and are bent on explaining everything in their own way will give rise to opposing opinions. But all who have in view the grand principle of Jesus will be united in the same love of goodness, and in a bond of brotherhood that will embrace the entire world. Putting aside all vain disputes about words, they will devote their energies to matters of practical importance, in regard to which, whatever their doctrinal belief, the convictions of all who receive the communications of the higher spirits will be the same.
"Perseverance will render your labour fruitful. The pleasure you will feel in witnessing the spread of our doctrine and its right appreciation will be for you a rich reward, though perhaps rather in the future than in the present. Be not troubled by the thorns and stones that the incredulous and the evil-minded will place in your path. Hold fast your confidence, for your confidence will ensure our help, and, through it, you will reach the goal.
"Remember that good spirits only give their aid to those who serve God with humility and disinterestedness. They disown all who use heavenly things as a stepping-stone to earthly advancement, and withdraw from the proud and the ambitious. Pride and ambition are a barrier between man and God, because they blind man to the splendours of celestial existence, and God cannot employ the blind to make known the light."
"JOHN THE EVANGELIST, ST AUGUSTINE, ST VINCENT DE PAUL, ST LOUIS, THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH, SOCRATES, PLATO, FÉNELON, FRANKLIN, SWEDENBORG" etc., etc.
Unshakable faith is only that which can meet reason face to face in every human epoch. (Allan Kardec)
