Spiritualism Study
Expanded vision of life through Spiritism.
The two works below were created approximately between 2007 and 2009. They were distributed weekly by the Spiritist Society Os Mensageiros da Paz (SEMP) on DVDs, which were sent by post to subscribers. Each DVD contained four lectures. The content of the lectures is spectacular and of the highest quality. The explanations provided by speaker Rubens Corrêa (only in portugues) are extremely clear and comprehensive. His teaching was phenomenal. The records were stored in the crawlspace of my house for several years. Some time ago I tried to generate digital files from these DVDs, as they tend to degrade and generate errors, meaning I could lose some lectures completely. I used several computers with several readers, requiring me to clean some discs and use other techniques to be able to read them. Some were quite challenging and, fortunately, with persistence, I managed to generate all the episodes and preserve both works in full.
Recently the possibility of sharing these two magnificent works came to mind. As they were edited and distributed by SEMP, I was able to contact the institution. I explained my idea and proposed analyzing alternatives to carry out this sharing. They were in favor, as the works no longer generate income for the institution. It can be seen that in some episodes messages appear about obtaining the works legally, etc. To carry out this sharing, each episode would have to be edited to add new introductions to make them available to the general public, possibly adding them to SEMP's own YouTube channel. While working on this idea, I hired the announcer Roberta Peixoto to read the biography of the speaker Rubens Corrêa, I edited a video with this voiceover and created this page with all the episodes in private mode directly on my own YouTube account. This means that these talks are not listed and openly available. If you search for the title of any of these or the name of the speaker, none of the videos below will appear. The lectures can only be accessed through the links below.
