Frequently asked questions

What is Spiritualism?

Spiritualism is a way of life. It brings proof of the survival of the human consciousness after physical death through evidential mediumship. It has no dogma and no demands on adherence to its philosophy. It combines philosophy, science and religion. It is guided by 7 Principles.

Does the Spiritualist movement have a leader?

No. Spiritualists do not believe in following any “gurus” and – unlike mainstream religions – do not have any “holy writings”, although many books have been written about all aspects of Spiritualism. The philosophy stresses the individuality of spiritual paths and emphasises the importance of personal spiritual experiences.

What is the cost of membership?

Membership is $20 per annum for financial year 23/24. This fee is subject to change.

What benefits do I have being a member?

Being a member gives you access to our extensive library of Spiritualist books; it entitles you to vote at the AGM, and enables you to stand for election to any committee position.  You will also receive our quarterly newsletter keeping you up to date with our events with membership discounts.
