Adriano Calsone talks about mediunic painting

This week’s editiorial, “A minute of thoughtless pleasure and its possible effects”, examines the issue of so-called social vices and temptations in our lives.

One of the highlights of this edition is an interview given to our collaborator Orson Peter Carrara by the colleague Adriano Calsone, medium and writer from São Paulo, who talks about mediunic painting and the prejudices in our country in respect to the exercise of this mediunic falculty.

Another highlight of this edition is the special article “Broth, Caution and Common Sense”, where Guaraci de Lima Silveira analyzes the doctrinal review proposals that arise from time to time among spiritists. In this article, the colleague suggests caution in regards to this important subject.

Divaldo Franco is once again on the road in the European continent, starting on May 9th  in Dublin, Ireland, as shown in the report by Paulo Salerno, which is also one of the highlights of this edition.
