Genesis (Miracles and Predictions According to Spiritism)

by Allan Kardec | FEB Publisher
Kindle, Paperback, PDF (Free)

The fifth and final work of the Spiritist Codification, published in 1868.

Genesis takes up the questions where religion and science have longest disagreed — the origin of the Earth, the nature of miracles, and the prophecies of the Gospels — and examines them in the light of natural law and the immortality of the soul. Kardec’s argument throughout is that nothing in creation is supernatural: what appears miraculous is simply a law not yet understood.

It is the most scientific in tone of Kardec’s five books, and the one that speaks most directly to readers who want faith and reason to hold together.

This is the most scientific book of Allan Kardec. It deals with themes regarded as incontestable by religion, in the light of the immortality of the soul, unifying Christian thought and scientific discoveries. It offers us a unique opportunity to know and study themes of universal interest, discussed in a logical, rational and revealing way. It analyses, with coherence, the origin of the planet Earth, and avoids mysterious or magical interpretations about the creation of the world. It also analyses the question of miracles, explaining the true nature of the supernatural facts of the Gospels. Finally, it talks about a new generation, whose rising will be the landmark of a new Era for Humanity, based on the practice of justice, peace and friendship.

Allan Kardec

03 October 1804

Allan Kardec is the pen name of the French educator and philosopher Hippolyte Léon Denizard Rivail (1804–1869). Regarded as the codifier of Spiritism, he dedicated the later part of his life to investigating and documenting psychic phenomena. Through methodical research and communication with spirits, he authored the five fundamental works of the Spiritist Codification, beginning with The Spirits' Book in 1857, which laid the philosophical and scientific foundation for Spiritism.
