Thankfulness
The life through the over time has translated me a
history, proving that the spirituality when lived with
responsibility ,perseverance and devotion, bring us
teachings which were very useful and important , in many
moments of my way, in search of self-knowledge and of
the real spiritual growth, always able to guide me and
encouraging me to continue my mission.
I thank all the love and wisdom messages given by
the Entities of Light of the Spiritual Umbanda Temple
Caboclo Pena Verde, they have transmitted me stimulus
words, persistence, peace feelings, reflection moments
and mainly in the orientation that we came in this plan to
help to sensitize more people, in search of peace, through
the brotherhood, humility, main fundamentals of
Umbanda.
I also thank who started all this way, my mother Ana
D’Orto, a special human being with great courage. Today
occupies her place as Spiritual Mentor with lots of light,
because since the beginning always treading ways with
many obstacles and adversity, she showed me
perseverance and prepared me to continue her mission
which was intended to us. My family, Silvio, Rodrigo,
Ricardo and Renata, my friend Rossana Di Natale that
always were by my side and they remained in faithful
harmony and unconditional support to my mission,
encouraging me for the excellence and growth of the
temple and for all of the people who made part of this
temple and make it until today. I can’t forget to detach the
figure of Rita Greco, idealizing of the cover of this work,
5
who kindly opened her collection of work providing us the
contained prints in this book.
Many are the friends that with me share the
difficulties we face in the conduction of the work, to
enumerate them could incur the risk to forget some of
them, but especially for the realization of this literary work,
I´d like to detach Carlos Feitosa, who with his dedication,
sensibility and effort, elaborated the texts, and made
possible the creation of this first work, one of the
aspirations of our regretful Spiritual Mentor.
I´m sure the biggest reward for all of the ones who
contributed for the creation of this work direct or indirectly
, will be the gratitude of being able to serve to others,
donating themselves with sincere help in all the moments
of their lives. During the reading of each of the contained
words in this work, open your heart and fell the strong
energy which naturally and in a spontaneous way springs
inside of each one, and when your minds listen to those
words that come from the supreme and wise
manifestation from our Greatest Master, Oxalá, and you
will see yourselves involved in only one syntony, and it
seems that this is a sign that you are already looking to
the world with the eyes of the spirit and the feeling of the
soul. That´s exactly the way Umbanda walks.

PRESENTATION
The spiritual Temple of Umbanda Caboclo Pena
Verde appeared from the objective and goals established
by the spiritual plan under Oxala’s orientation to the
Orixás by him designated, in the command that would
make the same consistent and solid. It has as main base
the development and the spiritual evolution in the practice
of charity and benevolence, in the appeal to the human
sensibility, transforming spirits in a way to improve the
essence of humanity. This will valorize and emphasize the
humanity in detriment of the material attachment and to
the influence of the evils which afflict the intimate of the
men, imposed by the selfishness which make the
insensitive and unbelievers.
The spiritual Temple of Umbanda Caboclo Pena
Verde has as motto the real practice of the good, unique
instrument that can fortify and progress the spirit, and
intensify the light, making these, propagators and
disseminators of the principles and concepts of the real
Umbanda .It has started even before of receiving this
name. Embryo by force of a spiritual guiding already
established in preceding lives as mission for its founder
Anna D’Orto and her carnal daughter Sônia Aparecida
Ruotolo.
10
Motivated by familiar reasons since the birthday of
her first-born, in function of the strong mediumistic
sensibility manifested by her, in the vision and
communication with Spirits and Entities that already
followed them in the direction for the initiation in the
mission pre-determined by Oxalá.
This understanding was not at all clear to Anna
D’Orto, and brought her many preoccupations and
annoyances , which made her to search explanations for
those manifestations in different sort of religions until she
found in a Spirit Center of Umbanda the answers and
orientations for her questions. Anna D’Orto was guided to
attend and develop her own mediumistic, which turned
her resisting for a long time, trying to escape from this
mission as she did in her preceding lives. However when
she was convinced, much more, touched by her maternal
feeling, since this could be the only possibility in providing
an improve to her daughter and balance for the family,
she finally opted to attend to the call of the spirituality.
When she disconnected from the last Center of
Umbanda which she worked as consultant medium, Anna
D’Orto, spiritual daughter of Oxossi and Iansã, finally
incorporated her mission and graduated as Mãe de
Santo( Mother of Saint), by her Pai de Santo( Father of
Saint) Father Antonio ( From City of Cotia), who guided
her in the setting and firmnesses for the initiation of a
Spiritual Temple of Umbanda, and then officially was born
the rented headquarter at Ipiranga’s District, in the year of
1972 the temple which would be named as her Entity and
Spiritual Mentor, Caboclo Pena Verde de Oxossi, in the
command of right, consolidated by her Entity Exu Sete
11
Encruzilhadas in the command of left. Anna D’Orto made
her passage for the spiritual plan in October 31st of 2004,
and as it was announced several times, her first-born,
Sônia Aparecida Ruotolo Moreno, spiritual daughter of
Ogum and Iansã, assumed the continuity of her mission
and her own in the terrestrial plan , for which she was
prepared during this life and also in preceding lives.
Sônia Aparecida Ruotolo Moreno became Mãe de Santo
(Mother of Saint) in the command of Spiritual Temple of
Umbanda Caboclo Pena Verde, having as Spiritual
Mentors Cabocla Jurema de Oxossi, Entity Chief in the
conduction of Right works, Caboclo Pena Verde as
mentor and Spiritual Commandant, always back boarded
by Exu Sete Encruzilhadas, Mentor, Guide and
Commandant and by Exu, Meia Noite, Entity Chief in the
conduction of the Left works of the Temple.
The Umbanda adopted by the Spiritual Temple of
Umbanda Caboclo Pena Verde practices the concept of
White Umbanda, syncretized in the elements of the
kardecista doctrine, of the Catholicism, of the African
religions and of the Brazilian Indians. Its values are moral
and spiritual, such as, Fraternity, Respect with others,
Humility and the biggest of them, the Charity. The
Spiritual Values have as religious base the cult to the
Spirits, Entities that manifest through the mediums, and
conduct the orientation or cure works for the consultants
and guide and development for the Mediums. Cult to
Orixás, which are Spirits – Divinities from a Superior
Astral Plan (ARUANDA), which in Earth are associated
and represent the forces and elements of nature.
12
Anna D’Orto acts in the Spiritual Plan as Mentor of
the Mãe de Santo (Mother of Saint), in the conduction of
the spiritual works, in the orientations, discipline and
norms of the Spiritual Temple of Umbanda Caboclo Pena
Verde. Her job proceeds, today with the mission to
continue the development and divulgation the Spiritual
Doctrine, through Umbanda, she has done many
meaningful changes related to the concentration and
commitment as well as responsibility for the religion, for
the Temple, it becomes more valuable, important and
indispensable the continuity of it.
The realization of the first edition of this book
summarizes the lessons, the teachings and orientation
weekly given, and in the valorization and exaltation of the
spirit and spirituality, give backboard to the human being
daily, providing them answers for their doubts, breath for
their sufferings, peace for their spirits. Making use of the
great energy, light and serene peace the Entities of this
Temple transmits without mystery, with simplicity,
seriousness, and knowledge, their teachings. The
presence of a big and increasing number of people in the
Giras (spiritual meetings), confirms the faith and trust of
this Temple which searches in its commitment, guide the
people to the way of the real happiness, that one which
initiates by the spirit and from the spirit extends for the
body, and it demonstrates in your life, in your practices, in
joy, in the love to others, in the act of charity. The biggest
value is in learning to listen and look to the world with the
sense of the soul which are fed by noble and positive
thoughts, coming from the presence each time closer to
our divine master Oxalá. Because only through the
13
intimate renovation, the charity, the respect, the humility
and love, we become deserving and conquer the right to
have Oxala´s greatest and more constant presence. Back
boarded by our faith and by this divine Light so close to
us, we are able to surpass all of the proofs that are
imposed to us, reaching the real and concrete spiritual
evolution, which will make possible to contribute even with
only a small part, the improvement of the essence of the
humanity.
Actually the Spiritual Temple of Umbanda Caboclo
Pena Verde, has own headquarter, placed at Manuel
Girão’s Street, 30 - Jardim Maristela’s, Ipiranga District.
Receiving and attending its sections on Mondays with the
Cure Giras (spiritual meetings) starts at 8:00 PM
(consultants previously booked) and on Wednesdays,
starts at 8:00 PM, and approximately 350 consultants are
attended by 79 Mediums, Sons and Daughters of Saints.

By the eyes of the Spirit
The Entity Preta Velha, Vovó Catarina
(grandmother Catarina), in her lecture made reference in
the way that the big part of the humanity sees the world
that surrounds it, and can be through the eyes of body or
eyes of the spirit.
Every spirit, when incarnates, covers the physical
body which will be connected during all the time that will
remain in this world. Assumes a position of full
connection, but limited to the condition that the matter
imposes, and some people consider a prison a nuisance
which they want to get rid of it and lives this annoyance
during all the incarnation, and they don´t add any good for
the others. Others assume this incarnation as a way of
taking advantage of everything that the matter can offer,
and forget and leave out totally their source and spiritual
connection. When they assume this position, they
appropriates from their free will´s faculty, which will
15
govern all of their acts, thoughts and feelings,
independent of the mission that was given, and they
establish other objectives totally from material´s order,
they block the eyes of the spirit and looks the world only
with the eyes of the matter giving sense only for its
conveniences as purpose of life. This behavior is like
closing your eyes for the light of the day, in spirit, to see
only the dark side of the night in matter, and forget that
the matter without the energy of the spirit faints, is dead
and the spirit without the physical body, the matter,
endures, and lives for all the eternity.
But, the independence of the spirit in relation to the
matter, does not manifest when it incarnates as human
being, but it does along of its existence in matter, in front
of provocations and terrene experiences. The
circumstances and factors imposed by life, where the
physical body is our instrument of performance and
manifestation, and without its terrene presence as human
being would not exist, and they are put to the test, their
convictions and persistence and will give sense and
consistency to their evolution as spirit.
In this way, attaching yourselves to the free will with the
relation matter-spirit, we are able to understand what
really interferes in your spiritual evolution. Your thoughts,
feelings and conduct and they are in reality spiritual
manifestations sheltered by your free will, by expression
of your consciousness, in other words, of your spirit. To
reach the real consciousness is necessary to know how to
look inside yourself before anything, also to understand
and reflect about what you see, about what can be
eliminated, improve or get better.
