The principle of evolution always calls on us to use any experience of failure or error as a learning opportunity. This is an intrinsic part of the Spiritual Reality in which we live.
No one progresses solely through the experience of victory. Quite the contrary: it is a well-known and frequently reiterated insight that failures teach us far more than triumphs do.
When we lose once again to a European team in the World Cup, we are confronted with traits deeply rooted in our national mindset: a tendency toward psychological relaxation and a lack of aggressiveness channeled toward the good.
The lesson for all of us Brazilians, then, is clear: we need less complacency and more discipline and objectivity in every area of our lives.
That’s how it is: we lost, but that’s the game!
May Our Lady Mary Christ bless us. So be it. May we make ourselves worthy of it.

A few weeks ago, I was in the chair of a dental office, with one side of my mouth anesthetized. Since I am not afraid of dental treatment (or dentists – laughs), I was very relaxed. The ambient music favored the trance. At one point I began to realize what was happening in the other realm of reality, the extraphysical one. The spiritual guide of the professional who attended me said something about wanting to write with him, inspiring him, a book in his professional area. He also informed me that the protégé having been thinking about that, and asked me to reinforce this idea, telling him of the inspiration he would receive. In fact, by the end of the session, I shared my psychic impressions with the dental surgeon, who demonstrated, naturally, joy and gratitude.
Also present was the disincarnate grandfather of my sister-friend Maisa Marante (also an odontologist), who, together with me and another brother-friend, Delano Mothé, lead the Organization that I founded, with the help of the spiritual Teachers, the Quantum Leap Institute. Maisa usually accompanies me to dental treatments. João Caetano, her deceased grandfather, expressed to us (both me and her) words of affection – after a decade of communications through me, Grandpa João, as I give myself the liberty to call him, already sees me equally as a grandchild.
After a few more minutes, appeared, supporting the efforts of the professional and his spiritual mentor, a disembodied young man, looking a little more than thirty years old, with his left hand flattened about ten centimeters from the point of my mouth that suffered the small surgical intervention. Brown hair shoulder length, white complexion, smoothly rounded features, without breaking the virile aspect. It was not only in appearance that I noticed him as a male: I felt him to be a very masculine personality, and I was surprised to note that he exuded an extremely affable energy of care and zeal, which I usually attribute to female figures.
I was, then, struck by a thought that seemed somewhat prejudiced to me, those that pass through our head and we do not verbalize, but which, for the Spirits of the Greater Plan, are all devastated, telepathically:
- How curious! How can he be so masculine and kind at the same time?
To my surprise and embarrassment – I had forgotten that he was a disembodied man (laughs) – the spiritual friend, who was concentrating on the procedure, turned to me with his expressive brown eyes and a broad, calm smile, affirming summarily: “Benjamin, I’m disembodied!”
And he completed the remainder of the sentence by the wireless of thought, something that could be translated more or less in these words:
- It is very easy for me, who does not suffer the hypnotic influences of the macho culture of the physical plane, nor the elements that foment aggression and rude behavior, as the high levels of testosterone produced by the male body of flesh, to keep my virility without losing, with that, the aspects of kindness peculiar to those who wish to serve with their heart.
I immersed myself in reflection, around the significant implications of what the good spirit that presented himself as a relative of other reincarnations, having even been my biological son, had just told me.
A deep, warm and light love, free from the passionate chains of matter, even from the genetic and neurophysiological-instinctual programs of emotional inclinations to kinship by blood! … He still feels like my son, because such bonds were established by the heart and not by the old reincarnate context.
I was happy to know of a new affection, of other existences, of eternity, as we all have, whether we capture it or not through mediumistic perceptions. They accompany us, full of sincere concern and caring, favoring the good progress of our lives, so much as we do to deserve their beneficial interference, according to the measure of efforts and achievements that we deploy, in the field of contributions to the common good.
What we cannot do is escape from interpersonal relations of the physical domain of existence, just because they emerge with an apparent greater degree of difficulty. It is very dangerous when the creature avoids intimate relationships with incarnates, to interweave them with intelligences deprived of material bodies, since it easily becomes a plaything of deceitful agents of the astral dimension. It can even turn into a macabre fantasy, when the person judges herself to be ostensible medium without being, becoming a puppet of the her own over-excited imagination, slipping into the wide and dantesque corridors of mental imbalance.
I feel blessed to have special friends, within the physical realm of existence, including my spouse, Wagner de Aguiar. With them, I live a wonderful, complex and long love story, by my effort and theirs! Friends from the Other Side assist all those who strive to fulfill our duties of service to others, whether in the professional, family, personal or any other sphere.
But they are present only to the extent that they do not compromise the learning indispensable to our maturation, on this physical plane in which we manifest ourselves. As it is obvious and sensible to conclude, if we were to live more with the disincarnated than with the incarnated, we would be, by Divine Will, disincarnated.
People with greater psychic sensitivity and/or spiritual vocation are tempted to avoid normal human contacts. Some even think they are special enough to avoid sexual relationships, as if sex, as pure (in its nature) as feeding or breathing, could tarnish the soul or the fate of an individual. They often complain that they are not understood or suffer affective exploitation or delusions such as to justify their proud and arrogant behavior …
We all suffer disappointment with friends and lovers. Do we want better friendly and romantic relationships? Let us be best friends and spouses of those with whom we choose to deprive our intimate life, always persisting in the ideal of fraternity. For those who are decent, sincere and imbued with the genuine desire to love and make others happy, and not only to be loved and cared for – the psychological posture of the newborn baby – disappointments only push away from our paths those who are not meant to compose our constellation of happiness.
Most often, they are psychotypes that choose the route of unhappiness, feeling themselves as victims and wronged, waiting for ideal people, without even being mature first, relying on systematic whimpering or cynical cooling of the heart, transferring responsibility to others, attributing to others or to external events the reason they are less happy or loving.
Following this very practical and effective life philosophy of working toward loving better, instead of focusing on being the most loved, we find ourselves increasingly happier, with friends, brothers and sisters in ideal and with sexual partners more attuned to our way of being and feeling… And we remember those who have hurt us in the past, like a blurred memory that we bless, without hurt feelings, for having unwittingly made it possible for us to arrive, through the lessons learned in the interaction with them, to the position so much higher in which we are, with whom we find ourselves: of unprecedented well-being and satisfaction! …

(Text written on August 20, 2014, at the request and with the inspiration of the Spiritual Advisor Eugênia-Aspasia.)
Majestically seated upon Her Throne of Love, Mary taught us:
Feeling is what moves the human world.
Often, debased by coarsened passions…
At times, entangled with improper ambitions…
Not rarely, wedded to perversity, which drains its strength or even inverts its direction, turning it from life toward death…
It will always be love, the quintessence of feeling, the seed of God within all creatures, that will propel some of them toward the Heights, whereas, when
dormant, numbed, ailing, or deranged, it will continue to bind so many others to the karmic wheel of successive and painful reincarnations.

Eugênia-Aspásia (Spirit)
in the name of Mary Christ
July 25, 2015
(Benjamin Teixeira de Aguiar) – Eugênia, on May 17th, we celebrate the International Day Against LGBTphobia. Could you tell us something about this?
(Spirit Eugênia-Aspásia) – It is an inexhaustible theme that demands constant revisiting for fresh reflection and broader debate. If we address it with consistency and depth—within the psyches of individuals and collectives, as well as in human culture at large—we may succeed in eradicating every form of violence against LGBT people, ranging from the most blatant acts to those that appear innocuous, such as the humor that fosters hatred and self-hatred.
(BTA) – Which specific topic within this subject would you like to highlight?
(EEA) – We must begin by acknowledging that—largely due to the percentage of people with the potential for bisexuality, even if they do not actively live it out—the LGBT+ community actually comprises the majority of the Earth’s population; it does not constitute a minority, as is so often claimed.
On the other hand, let us remember the extent to which religion and legislation—in most corners of the planet—still condemn sexual identities that deviate from the standard cisgender heterosexual model. These two pillars of civilization—temples and courts—require a radical update. Consequently, this would allow media and mass communication sectors—supported by quality journalism and established press outlets—to echo what scientific academia and the artistic vanguard have asserted for decades: that diverse manifestations of sexual orientation and gender identity are natural expressions of the human condition. (BTA) – And this isn’t accomplished overnight, nor easily…
(EEA) – No. The undertaking is immense and will consume decades of concerted effort by citizens, organizations, countries, and churches; yet, it will not fade until it fully achieves its objectives, for it enjoys the guardianship of the great Spiritual Authorities who, in the Name of God, guide the destinies of the world.
(BTA) – I wouldn’t know what else to ask about the subject. I feel overwhelmed by the complexity and the pain that permeate it.
(EEA) – Because you have lived it deeply since childhood, and—in your adult life—have been willing to study it and, above all, to debate it systematically and publicly, including on television, starting in the early 1990s. Thus, the distressing nuances and the contours of grave urgency surrounding the topic do not escape you—unlike what happens, in a way, with cisgender heterosexuals and even with members of the LGBT+ community who, however enlightened, do not dedicate themselves to the work of raising awareness and liberating souls as you have done before the multitudes for over 30 years.
(BTA) – It is incredible how irritating the topic seems to be for so many people.
(EEA) – And infuriating—in the sense of provoking violent, murderous, suicidal, and genocidal rage—but only for those immersed in the primitive mindset of a base, backward ego, crystallized in the rearguard of reactionary conservatism and focused on immediate personal gain.
Conversely, the spiritual power protecting this cause and those who strive to defend it proves invincible, for it originates from the Divinity. Furthermore, the evolutionary moment in history has arrived for this issue—rooted for millennia in the cultural universe of the physical plane—to be properly addressed and resolved, regardless of the time and energy such an undertaking demands of individuals and entire communities.
(BTA) – You touched upon another consequence of LGBTphobia: suicide…
(EEA) – Yes. LGBTphobia is one of the factors that, alongside militant atheism, most fuels a distaste for life, a loss of existential purpose, and a lack of joy and idealism; it causes, so to speak, the death of the soul in millions of beings, even if many never commit an act of lethal violence against themselves or others.
We observe with deep sorrow the massive scale reached by cynicism, nihilism, and the dismantling of the foundations of morality and spirituality, as well as the impact of the moralistic, irrational, and criminal anathemas leveled against LGBT people—often expressed in monstrous statements, such as those of a religious nature that deem them “abominations” from the cradle throughout their entire lives, whether within or outside the realm of dense matter.
This is a diabolical movement that, as we highlighted earlier, originates from two of society’s most important sectors—law and religion—which ought, in principle, to have a duty to combat discrimination of every kind, whether based on sexual orientation, gender identity, or any other human characteristic.
May leaders and ordinary people alike—from all walks of life and backgrounds—grasp the importance of this matter and discuss it seriously, ranging from the sanctuary of the home to the most influential platforms for sharing ideas and values. Let this be done to safeguard the vast multitudes of suffering, troubled, and desperate hearts that are in need of succor—never of attack.

in dialogue with Eugênia-Aspásia (Spirit)
Recife, May 14, 2026
Withdraw from effort that entails forcing yourself or forcing events that must unfold according to their own rhythms, beyond your control or that of anyone else.
The culture of the material world, intrinsically bound to a focus on egoic interests, induces the belief that to be responsible and mature is to live in tension and worry. Such an attitude toward the occurrences of existence only generates wear and rupture of physical, mental, and spiritual health.
Seek, insofar as possible, to be attentive to and occupied with what is constructive and resolutive. Try attentiveness without tension, occupation without preoccupation.
To rest in a state of mild disciplined activity is, paradoxically, the psychological pattern you must make your continuous modus operandi, in every area and department of your existence.
This choice, as a philosophy of life, joined to the pursuit of prioritizing the essential values of the spirit, favors a safe passage toward full self-realization, toward the transcendence of oneself, toward the overcoming of the circumstantial panorama in which one is situated.
Scholars of the phenomenon of flow, the condition in which great professionals attain and sustain a level of excellence in their performance, recommend an equivalent measure: striving that draws the individual out of their comfort zone, without provoking, however, unsustainable wear in the day-to-day of long working hours.
The distinction between our counsel and that of specialists thus resides in the fact that we postulate the primacy of what ought to be at the center of every human being’s attention: matters pertaining to the realm of the ideal, of vocation, of spirituality.
Such a guideline of conduct represents a conceptual key to understanding another paradox, proposed by the Christ-Word Jesus: “Come to me, all you who are weary, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you [...] and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”¹
1. Matthew 11: 28-30.
