Umbanda
The word umbanda means: Manifestation of the spirit for charity.
The spirits that work in umbanda are divided into two:
ORIXAS: Spirits of very high frequency, who have never had experiences.
in material life or incarnation in this astral.
EGUNS: Spirits that are in evolution, of low frequency that through
Reincarnations evolve in this or another astral plane.
All umbanda guides are evolved eguns that work under the
divine order to help their imprisoned brothers in the evolutionary matter
under the watch of the orixas.

Umbanda
It is based on the practice of charity and has one of its functions the
spiritual elevation of the medium and of the entities that govern it
medium.
Umbanda bases its philosophy on:
Existence of a unique God.
2. The existence of Jesus, whom we call Oxalá, a model of perfection and
behavior that we seek to achieve.
3. The existence of vibrations in the universe that we call Orixás.
4. The existence of spiritual entities that fit within those
vibrations.
5. The existence of evolving spiritual planes.
6. The existence of the spirit, surviving the physical body, on the way to
evolution and seeking perfection.
7. Reincarnation in the karmic law of cause and effect.
8. The practice of mediumship in various presentations, types and
modalities.
9. The practice of material and spiritual charity as a means of evolution.
This religious movement, Umbanda, was born in 1908 during a session.

The Supreme Master and role model would be Our Lord Jesus Christ.
Considering that the Gospel would also be accepted as sacred doctrine.
2. Some African foundations would also be accepted; the syncretism
between Orixás and Saints; Some gods and indigenous beliefs and theories of
Kardecism such as reincarnation, spiritual evolution, the law of

they wish to enter the ranks of the cult.
4. All its members should dress in white and should direct their

There are 3 types of cult within Umbanda that are referred to as:

toward the Gospel and spiritism, which comes from Zélio.
2. Umbanda Cruzada where animals are sacrificed, drinks are offered and
tobacco to the Entities.
3. Esoteric or Kabbalistic Umbanda; much more focused on the
spiritism, Eastern doctrines, and the defense of the foundations of
Amerindian nations.

rankings that have very small differences:
["Ogum Line","Oxossís Line","Xangó Line","Yorimá Line"]
(old blacks); Yori line (children); Iemanjá line and line of
Oh, I wish.
We must also clarify that the Entities that are pointed out as Heads
of some phalanx, they have variations according to the different lists, being able to
find small differences in them.
With this, we make it clear that Umbanda does not worship Orixá. Instead, it
arranged in 7 lines, spirits in the service of the Orixá. For a matter of
logic, also brings with it the worship of natural forces... and the
nature in itself. Thus, this way we have answered a question
everyday. We must remember that the Orixás are forces of Nature and
that therefore have not had physical life in the human plane, since they
they are the Spirits of Nature.
The spirits that arrive in Umbanda have therefore had, as
we, reincarnations in past lives, but now committed
in the high astral they arrive as Guides of the different Lines, according to their
spiritual evolution, going through a long path within religion for
through help and charity.
That's why an Umbanda Guide always arrives ready to offer his
esoteric knowledge in favor of all those who come to ask for help and
protection against the difficulties of life.

Umbandist Doctrine
The Doctrine of Umbanda aims to spread the teaching
spiritual, based on the teachings of the Spiritual Guides that are in it
they manifest, with some criteria indicated in the Gospel of the Master
Jesus, but examined from the spiritual point of view.
Because man cannot access with his physical senses to the
affinity of the spiritual context, Umbanda is a doctrine that stimulates the
use of spiritual sense so that it can be perceived, become aware and
to understand the dynamics of spiritual dimensions. For this reason, the
Religion could be strengthened through the study and practice of the Doctrine.
spiritual.
The spiritual knowledge presented at the Center is corroborated by
through spiritual experiences and the scientific study of the subject,
exposing the explanation from the human point of view, which always
will be limited by the lack of verification of the spiritual and etheric phenomenon in
the physical plan by
those who deny this reality.
The objective of this study is to present the foundations of the doctrine.
from Umbanda, about the existence of God, the soul, and the spiritual process
that takes place for the evolution of the spirit, through
reincarnation and the correction of errors based on the 7 Laws
Natural or Universal, since no living being is incarnated or
disembodied escape from them.
For human reason, it is impossible to establish the exact nature of Zambí.
No one could define it clearly; taking Jesus as an example, who
he couldn't define it with words from common vocabulary, simply
He defined it, God! He compared it to a merciful Father, who does not
it neither condemned nor punished, therefore there was no reason to fear it, but instead
reasons to love him as he loves us.
The only way to perceive even a small scheme of existence.
from Zambí, it is through a heightened spiritual state that it can be achieved
through the constant practice of charity and goodness.
Al poseer cada alma esencia y existencia, cada una tiene una cierta solidez
spiritual, occupying an ethereal space. And in the plane that it finds itself
It will depend on its vibrational state at the moment. In each of these
endless spiritual plans each spirit had its own particular way of vibrating,
but always supported by the 7 Universal Laws or Laws of Nature.
Then Zambí created the simple and ignorant spiritual being but endowed it with
intelligence, freedom, and love, for with those 3 gifts were enough to
that the being would evolve, through them they would achieve their spiritual elevation,
traversing a long road, where learning is based on correction
of the mistakes through the Law of Karma.
These gifts allow beings to have a nature, identity and
own and particular individuality.
These gifts are also spiritual vibrations, therefore no
spirit can stop vibrating or lose its gifts because they are part of its
own existence.
Each of these gifts has a unique way of vibrating, but these
they interact with each other expressing that unique individuality and intentionality
spiritual. Therefore, each spiritual being possesses through them:
Identity: Particular and individual.
Consciousness: of its spiritual state and the reality in which it interacts.
Experience: for the actions executed.
Spiritual Memory: in a globalized form of its action.
Discernment: for decision making.
Free Will: regarding your actions.
Spiritual Energy: that mobilizes according to its will and
intentionality.
Then Zambí manifests in all and everywhere through the
understanding the 7 Laws of Nature, manifesting their vibratory
spiritual towards all planes of existence.
It is only serious and discerning study, the only way that human beings have.
in order not to fall into ignorance and thus prepare for their commitment in the
Earth.
The basic principles of Umbanda are:
The Existence of God
God exists. He is the origin and the end of everything. He is the creator, the cause of all
things. God is the Supreme Perfection, with all the attributes that our
imagination can imagine you, and much more. We cannot know your
nature, because we are imperfect. How can a limited intelligence and
imperfect as ours could encompass unlimited knowledge and
perfect what is God?
Immortality of the Soul
Before being human beings, children of our parents, we are, in fact,
children of Zambí. The Spirit is the intelligent principle of the Universe, created
for Zambi, simple and ignorant, to evolve and realize oneself individually
by their own efforts.
As spirits, we existed before being born and we will continue to exist.
after physical death.
When the spirit is in the life of the body, we say it is a soul or
embodied spirit. When it is born, we say it reincarnated; when it dies,
that disembodied. Disembodying, it returns to the Spiritual World, from where
born drunk.
Spirits are, therefore, disembodied persons who are currently
they are found in a spiritual state.
Reincarnation
Created simple and ignorant, the spirit is the one who decides and creates its own
destiny. For this, he is endowed with free will, that is, the capacity to discern.
between good and evil. In this way, it has the possibility of developing,
evolve, perfect oneself, becoming better and better, more perfect, like
a student in school, who moves up a grade, through the various
courses.
Such evolution requires learning, and the spirit can only achieve it.
embodying and reincarnating in the world, as many times as necessary,
to acquire more knowledge, through the multiple experiences of the
life.
The progress gained by the spirit, through the experiences lived in the
countless existences, it is not only intellectual, but above all, the
moral progress, which will bring him closer and closer to Zambí.
But, just like the student can repeat the school year once, twice, or more times,
the spirit that does not make good use of its existence on Earth can

We do not know how many incarnations we have had, much less how many.
we have in front of us. Nevertheless, we know that as spirits
delayed, we will have many and many incarnations, until
we achieve the necessary moral development to become pure spirits.
However, not all incarnations occur on Earth. There are
higher and lower worlds than ours. When we evolve a lot,
we can be reborn on a planet of higher order. The Universe is infinite and
In my Father's house, there are many mansions,
The Earth is a world of a lower moral category, it is enough to observe the
lamentable panorama in which Humanity finds itself. Despite this, the
it is subject to transforming into a sphere of regeneration, when the
men decide to practice good and brotherhood reigns among them.
Omission of the Past
No recordamos nuestras vidas pasadas y en eso está la sabiduría de Zambí.
If we remembered the wrong we did or the sufferings we went through, the
enemies that harmed us or those we harmed, no
we would have conditions to live among them currently.
Thus, many times, the enemies of the past are now our children, our
brothers, our parents, our friends, who are currently
they find with us for reconciliation. For this reason, there is the
reincarnation.
Certainly today we are correcting mistakes made against someone,
suffering the consequences of crimes committed, or even, we are
sheltered and aided by those who in a past, harmed us.
This shows the importance of family, where it is customary to recount the
cut ties in previous stocks.
Reincarnation, in this way, is the opportunity for repair, as it is
also an opportunity to put our efforts for the good of the
furthermore, hastening our spiritual evolution. When we reincarnate,
we bring a 'life plan', commitments made in front of the Entities
Higher and in front of ourselves, and related to repair
from evil and to the practice of all possible good.
Depending on our spiritual conditions, we could or could not have
chosen the trials, the sufferings or the difficulties that will put on
try our spiritual development.
Therefore, reincarnation, as a perfect mechanism of Justice
Divine, explain to us why there is so much inequality of destinies among the
creatures of the Earth.
The purpose of life on Earth is therefore:
In order to atone for the evil committed, paying with suffering our
errors.
To test ourselves or to measure our degree of evolution, in the face of the
difficulties of life.
So that we help Humanity and exemplify good in the face of the
others.
To carry out a special mission, in the case of elevated spirits that
they provide great services to Humanity.
Through the mechanism of Reincarnation, we verify that Zambí does not punish.
We are the ones causing our own suffering, due to the law of
action and reaction

The better our behavior, the faster we will free ourselves from the

So that we can measure what is absurd in the idea of heaven and the

From there we know that life is always a new opportunity to

Following the living example of Jesus should be the ideal of every human being.
sincere.
"Love one another" recommended Jesus.
And there is no other way to love than to be charitable. Charity means being
benevolent, patient, tolerant, and humble.
We can do all that, taking better care of our attitudes, monitoring
our daily behavior, being more attentive and kind, seeing in the
others more their qualities and finally, being more demanding with ourselves

And finally, I want to leave a thought of mine for all the Guides

leads to our spiritual progress.
As Redemptive Religion, Umbanda is not a set of fundamentals nor
coldly established doctrines.
As a Redemptive Religion, Umbanda is a fusion of moral norms and
spiritual beings in eternal evolution, leading us towards perfection
spiritual, not only for the embodied but also for the disembodied.
To these Spirits who manifesting as our beloved Guides of
Umbanda and Kimbanda, we must thank them for the opportunity that together
we can fulfill our mission of helping those in need of
invaluable spiritual knowledge so that they can achieve their own peace
interior.
We must understand, therefore, that a Guide does not give us advice on how
to handle a personal situation. It teaches us the inner attitude we must have.
to have to face situations and personal problems, according to
our free will, always in a high spiritual state and in accordance with
the precepts of our beloved Redeemer.
They are here to restore and teach the precepts of Master Jesus,
Spirit that with its vibration of love, reaches each one of us through
through these instructions, which are divine manifestations, moments
of calm for the souls.
During the manifestations of our Guides, who arrive at the Sessions of
Caridad, we must remember that they come to help all those who
they travel this path on Earth, a path of repair, for our
spiritual problems, fundamental basis of moral knowledge, for without
we will never willingly add pain to that guidance
pain.
The medium of Umbanda
Being a medium of Umbanda means being a link between the spirits of
Caboclos, Pretos Velhos, Crianzas and other Entities, in order to give
charity and spiritual assistance to our fellow beings, and as a consequence
to help our Spiritual Guides as well as ourselves for a more
rapid spiritual elevation.
That is why this gift must be taken care of, we must study each one very well.

neither permit bad use nor abuse of any mediumistic manifestation.
We must remember that enemies exist in both the physical realm and
in the astral plane, many spirits or obsessive spirits wander around the
space, always ready to disturb or harm so many unsuspecting.
The sensitivity of the medium makes them perceive the approach of a
spirit and its irradiation, as a superior force, that's why a

scientific-religious, which over time is no longer so despised
you are so misunderstood.
Umbanda is a religion where there is no social class, as it reaches everyone without
distinction of races, creeds or social status, in a direct contact, in
where both mediums and Spiritual Entities are in it
they work, listen, advise and help the disoriented, the disturbed, the
sick, both in body and spirit.
Umbanda is a religion that acts directly on the person.
seeking their spiritual perfection, that is why the function of the medium of
Umbanda, whether Priest or the children of saints, is to help for the
spiritual perfection, which can only be achieved through understanding,
understanding and open and sincere dialogue, thinking only about what
truly interests us all, the good, the progress and love.
Within the different mediumnities, the Umbandist medium is
considered a spiritual medium, also called cavalho, which is the
belief in which it is thought that the spirit rides the medium.
The human body has 28 centers of force or mediumistic, of the 28

For centuries, the Easterners knew about these centers by practicing with them.

that just
they were given attention and study at the beginning of the 20th century.
In the Umbanda Crossings, the adepts observe that the Chief of
Terreiro works with pemba, honey, palm oil, and orí on the head,
front, nape, neck, chest, hands and feet without knowing what the object or the
purpose of that ritual and there are some Leaders of Terreiros (Caciques) who it
they do it without having the slightest idea of the meaning, this is due to the lack of
study.
The human body is like a battery charged with energy, from which flows
constantly electric currents in the direction of opposite poles, when the
a person acquires mediumistic knowledge, is opening their body
(their energy centers) and receiving the astral energy, from the Guides who
they incorporate or lean on, the medium then needs to discharge that energy
accumulated, this is achieved through magnetic passes, over another person
in charity sessions, in that way the accumulated astral energies in
the matter is released by making a discharge in the medium and penetrating into
the consultant and acting on the same, achieving relief and well-being, if the
the medium had no way to discharge that accumulated energy, caused by
to reach the Guide out of mere pleasure, arrogance or negligence; it would bring it.

spiritual, left at the mercy of thousands of disturbing spirits or
observers who would attack him, leading the medium inexorably to ruin,
the
madness or death.
A large part of the people interned in psychiatric centers is due to
this disturbance, due to the poor handling of your mediumship or due to infinities
of examples, practices of black magic or the most common, the famous game of the
"cup" that when unconsciously making this type of invocation, the energies
astral beings are set in motion, attracting countless spirits to
enclosure, how to work in the astral plane under the only thing that is achieved
to attract, they are spirits of suffering people, of murderers, evil spirits,
leaning against or leaning on those people, causing the effects

Another dangerous example of the misuse of mediumship occurs when the

trying to incorporate, believing the medium that incorporates its Guides, if not
that is taking elemental spirits (of low thoughts, quiumbas,
obsessors, disruptors and all kinds of wandering spirits) pretending to be

selfishness, dragging those who follow them into that same condition.
That is why the medium must seek the path to develop their potential.

Mediumship and its development within Umbanda

what the mystifying medium will achieve is to disturb the tour, to disturb its
Brothers of Faith and making your Guiding Spirit abandon you and begin to
incorporate disturbing spirits, thinking this, that incorporates its Guide,
if this is not the case and the medium begins to roll from Terreiro to Terreiro,
falling further behind and having the consequences already outlined in the lines
previous ones (misuse of mediumship) that's why the Umbanda medium
he must start and become Cacique in the Terreiro where he began,
setting aside any misunderstandings either with your Brothers of Faith,
as with their superiors, taking into account that a Terreiro of Umbanda
It is also the House of God and as such must be respected.
The medium must also accept their own faults or mistakes, which occurs in
cases in which the initiate before entering Umbanda was a person
vicious, with bad company or some family failures and upon entering
the religion, by not accepting its mistakes, shifts all the blame onto him
Umbanda.
This is a complete lack of awareness, the Son of Umbanda must understand that
like any person will have their problems here on Earth like
any human being.
Then the Umbanda medium must have a very high ethical value and
moral to avoid falling into despair.
Being a medium of Umbanda is a true testimony that through the
the incorporation proves reincarnation, it is a very close communion
with our Higher Beings and the men, so that at the end of the cycle, the
man is just another particle in the infinite and reaching God.
Let us remember that we do not reach God only through the path of faith or only through the
path of knowledge, to reach it, we must follow both paths.
To know God, merely intellectually, is to understand without feeling, to know
To God through faith is to feel it without understanding.
It is necessary to progress intellectually and emotionally to know
God, so that he and through him may come to live an absolute and eternal unity.
Who has the happiness of having entered the ranks of the workers of
Umbanda should not take advantage of its mediumistic abilities to do
the evil, not even to the one we judge as an enemy.
We must surrender our physical bodies to the disembodied brothers who
as Guides, they come to alleviate pain and provide solutions to their problems
similar ones, so they achieve and continue with their evolution.
Let us not forget that when the time comes to leave our physical body
we will also need a donated body.
We must perfect our mediumship with purity in our
hearts.
Every medium is good when they have good intentions, whether conscious or unconscious,
semi-conscious or conscious.
Upon entering a spiritual workplace, we must free the mind from the
profane things, trying to elevate thought, up to our Great
Master who with his suffering and his humility freed his soul, rising up
spiritually towards God who is an inexhaustible source of love and mercy.
We will divide the mediumistic manifestation into three parts.
Conscious mediumship: the conscious medium is the individual who has just
start developing that ability, for this, it is necessary to have a very high
concentration, to start freeing the mind. The medium will first begin to feel
various symptoms or discomforts in your body, such as vomiting,
stomach disorders, you will hear voices in your mind, it will seem to you that you see
hallucinations, you will feel the muscles that become tenser than normal,

Every medium of the Umbanda or Kimbanda Line comes with speech.

the medium that was mystifying, this is verified through certain
tests. The medium can take up to years to transition from medium
conscious to the semi-unconscious medium or to the unconscious, it all depends on its
continuity, in its development and in its attitudes both inside the Terreiro
as if outside of it.
The semi-unconscious medium: it is one that has already had some time in its
development, moves to a firmer incorporation, begins to feel in its
mind as if at times you fall asleep and wake up again,
the same happens with the ears, sometimes it hears, sometimes it doesn't,
for moments of not seeing, as if suddenly regaining sight, this is due to
that the spirit that is embodied is taking a clearer possession
of matter and therefore of the senses of the medium, making the
more elastic and clearer movements.
If the Guide already had permission to speak and the medium was conscious,
he will feel in his mind the orders of the Guide at that moment he imparts to him,
without doubting for a moment what was being said, because he knows
that it is not him, but the Guide.
If the medium did not know Portuguese, they would still speak it because they are receiving.
the communication of the Guide.
The unconscious medium: is one who has already surpassed the early stages,
I will arrive already with a good physical and mental predisposition to that level of
mediumship. It is when the Guide takes complete possession and exercises total
mastery of the senses of the medium, then if it were given to him in that
moment to the medium to eat for example hot peppers, salt or
anything that altered the normal taste, I wouldn't feel it.
If he were made to walk on hot coals, he would not be burned, within these
examples include other types of tests used by the Terreiro Leaders
to test the incorporation.
All those people who are newly incorporated and say they do not remember their
Brothers of Faith, they have not been incorporated then.
Sometimes the same is heard from some Paes or Maes of
Santos, this is due to the lack of doctrine and development, because in

check that no newly incorporated person loses consciousness.
So these people who make such observations have never

Some of the tips to ensure better mediumship are that when
to end a session, one must forget what happened and not hold meetings,
that inevitably end up talking about the same thing, in this way, the Guide
she will gain more confidence in the medium and in turn will get used to

Mediumistic Current
When we talk about mediumistic current, we primarily refer to
the children of religion, brothers / and children of faith. To achieve having a good
mediumistic current, every child of Umbanda must be applied in
its behavior, in order to follow the path of this religion so
beautiful, and to be able to proudly carry the flag of our Umbanda.
For a mediumistic current to be effective, each member must be
optimally focused, free from petty or superfluous thoughts,
to remain united in common goals and freed from earthly miseries.
Only the excellence in concentration and the energy that emanates from love towards
the Spiritual Guides and to others will create a strong current in vibrations,
where the spirits of light rejoice in arriving.
The adept who integrates the mediumistic current within a session, and who
is willing to share his matter with a spiritual guide, in addition to
having performed the previous rituals, you must set aside the problems
earthly matters and focus on the mission to be accomplished.

The Magic of Candles
The word candle or , comes from Latin (candere) and its meaning is to shine.
Since the time of our ancestors, the Romans and the Greeks have
used lighting methods for the interior of houses and
subsequently they are even being consumed within the sanctuaries and
temples and in almost all the ceremonies of worship and rituals of practically
all religions both
Eastern and Western. Candles are powerful sources of power for
the spells.
With candles, we protect others and ourselves against the
attacks of evil.
Color is one of the most important factors in candle rituals.
A lit candle attracts wonderful and positive things because it concentrates the
latent energy in the Universe with a specific purpose. The candles are the
most beautiful and simple magic expression; used in ceremonies and rituals
from almost all the religions and cults of the world.
Candles are undoubtedly one of the most representative symbols in the
Umbanda. She is on the Altar, in the cabalistic and marked points, in the
offerings and in almost all spiritual works.
When a Umbandist lights a candle, they know that they are opening with their

If we go into more detail, we will come to the conclusion that a simple
lit candle, sets into motion the subtle forces of nature,

HOW DO CANDLES WORK?
This action could be summed up in three words: fire, light, and faith. When
we light a candle, we activate the sacred fire, capable of
transmute energy. Through it, the divinatory power is applied that
bring to light the secrets that dwell in the forms, in the flame, in the color.
Through this correlational chromaticism, we rescue a world of
wisdom, analyzing the value of colors as a basic essence. We start
from the red, like the lowest vibration, which contemporizes with the
physical senses and worldly desires, up to the violet, which possesses the
higher vibration, as it connects us with the celestial forces.
Everything vibrates in the universe. These invisible impulses or vibrations cannot

they are forms in a high degree. These knowledge, wisely used,
they are means that serve to achieve our purposes.
By setting the candle ritual in motion, we will bring out so much energy to the outside,
kindness, strength or wisdom as we carry within.
The power of the candles lies in the fire. And the power of the fire lies in each one.
about us. Lighting a candle is to illuminate all that is dark, it is to dominate what
hidden through fire. This is a magical and transformative task.
Fire, colors, magic, can also be negative. If someone
wants to cause harm through the candles, he can achieve it by using
certain elemental spirits. The candle takes that energy and the force of the
thought that is invoked. If someone moves a dense and harmful energy, the
it will capture and act accordingly.
It is also important to talk about chromotherapy, as candles have
different power according to their colors. There is a color for every problem: there is
two-colored candles, seven-colored candles, etc.
However, for these elements, there is a fundamental requirement to put
in motion the power of candles, faith.
The rituals of Umbanda are accompanied by songs, clapping, and incense.

find small differences in them.
With this, we make it clear that Umbanda does not worship Orixá. Instead, it

logic, also brings with it the worship of natural forces... and the
nature in itself. Thus, this way we have answered a question
everyday. We must remember that the Orixás are forces of Nature and
that therefore have not had physical life in the human plane, since they
they are the Spirits of Nature.
The spirits that arrive in Umbanda have therefore had, as
we, reincarnations in past lives, but now committed
in the high astral they arrive as Guides of the different Lines, according to their
spiritual evolution, going through a long path within religion for
through help and charity.
That's why an Umbanda Guide always arrives ready to offer his
esoteric knowledge in favor of all those who come to ask for help and
protection against the difficulties of life.
