All spirits are undergoing a constant process of development, whether they<br />
are aware of it or not. This is because the purpose of every soul is to<br />
develop spiritually. Just as your body develops throughout the course of<br />
your life, so does your spirit. Unlike your physical body, however, which<br />
will eventually dissipate, your spiritual body will continue to pass from one<br />
existence to another.<br />
All spirits start at the same place, then grow and renew themselves<br />
through a process of many lives and rebirths. This is called reincarnation.<br />
As an individual spirit develops, its light and power grow. Thus all of us<br />
have the innate capacity to connect with God and the Divine, because we<br />
are all spirits inhabiting bodies.<br />
Each of the spiritual realms helps to develop the spirits within that<br />
realm. As one of the realms, Earth serves as one of many classrooms for<br />
individual spirits. In fact, each spirit is on a journey back toward God—a<br />
great journey whose purpose is to reunite with God, to return to the oneness<br />
of the Great Spirit where the individual spirit becomes free of all chains and<br />
bonds.<br />
As with all journeys, there are various stages in this process. What helps<br />
us progress on this journey is reincarnation, which occurs, not only in the<br />
physical realm, but also within the spiritual realms of existence. In<br />
<strong>Espiritismo</strong>, reincarnation is always progressive.<br />
Every spirit has personal will, to a greater or lesser degree. However,<br />
this is not free will. The amount of free will each spirit has is determined by<br />
how much purity that spirit has attained. Spirits with lesser degrees of free<br />
will must submit to those who have attained a greater degree.<br />
MAGNETIC EMISSIONS<br />
Since everything is made of light, everything radiates light outward. When<br />
this light radiates outward, it takes on the qualities and properties of the<br />
vessel through which it passes. Thus it is no longer in its original pure state,<br />
but has become individualized. These emissions of light are known as<br />
fluidos or corrientes, fluids or currents. Currents that come via the spirits<br />
are known as spiritual currents. Currents that come from objects, people,<br />
and animals are known as psychic currents.
