Spiritist aphorisms.

I. — The Spirits incarnate as men or women, because they have no sex. As they must progress in everything, each sex, like each social position, imposes upon them special trials and duties, as well as the occasion to acquire experience. He who was always a man would know only what men know. II. — By the Spiritist Doctrine, solidarity is no longer restricted to earthly society: it embraces all worlds; through the relations that the Spirits establish among the different Spheres, solidarity is universal, for from one world to another the living beings lend one another mutual support.
