I love this post for the explanation of the 7 Gates. To recognize my journey in life through shedding of my skins because of growth and coming back to Source.
Jesus and Mary weren’t just teaching love and light. They were exposing the counterfeit.
They knew that spiritual amnesia wasn’t accidental—it was engineered.
And they taught people how to spot the interference.
Here’s how they did it:
🔥 Jesus taught:
“You will know them by their fruits.”
→ Meaning: mimic systems look holy, but they produce fear, control, hierarchy, guilt.
He flipped tables in the temple—not because of money—but because the holy spaces had been hijacked.
He wasn’t just attacking corruption. He was attacking the inversion of light.
And when he said:
“The kingdom of God is within you.”
He was destroying the archon lie that said you need permission to access divinity.
⸻
🌹 Mary taught:
“Do not lay down rules as the Lawgiver, lest you be dominated by it.” (Gospel of Mary)
She warned that external laws and priestly systems were not the path—they were the trap.
Mary’s teachings were stripped from the canon because she taught direct connection.
She knew the Archons mimic authority, and she taught her students to:
• look inward
• trust direct knowing
• reject spiritual gatekeeping
She even described how the Archons tried to stop the soul from ascending—and how the soul had to name and see them to move past each gate.
⸻
They didn’t say:
“Avoid the darkness.”
They said:
“See it clearly, and it loses power.”
They didn’t give people rules. They gave people mirrors.
That’s why the systems tried to bury their full teachings—because once you can spot the mimic, it can’t control you anymore.
🌀 The 7 Gates of Ascent (from Mary’s teachings + Gnostic overlays)
These are the seven levels the soul must pass through after death or during deep remembrance.
At each gate, an Archon (or “Power”) tries to block the soul by confronting it with distortion, illusion, or unprocessed attachment.
Mary describes this in fragments from the Gospel of Mary, the Pistis Sophia, and echoed in other mystery texts.
But this isn’t just after death.
It’s a living map for awakening.
At each gate, the soul must recognise the false, speak its name, and release its hold.
⸻
🌒 Gate One: Darkness / Ignorance
Block: Forgetting. Fog. Confusion. Doubt.
Challenge: “You don’t know who you are.”
Transcendence: I remember. I am eternal awareness.
⸻
🌘 Gate Two: Desire / Craving
Block: Material attachments. Sensual addiction. Emotional hooks.
Challenge: “You need more to be whole.”
Transcendence: I am already full. I release the need to possess.
⸻
🌗 Gate Three: False Peace / Obedience
Block: Comfort over truth. Fear of disapproval. Submission to systems.
Challenge: “Just stay quiet. Don’t disrupt.”
Transcendence: I will speak even when my voice shakes. My peace is not passive.
⸻
🌕 Gate Four: Pride / Spiritual Ego
Block: “I know more than others.” Ascension arrogance. Gatekeeping.
Challenge: “You are chosen. You are above them.”
Transcendence: I serve, not ascend alone. I am one light among many.
⸻
🌗 Gate Five: Fear / Judgement
Block: Fear of punishment. Cosmic anxiety. Shame about the past.
Challenge: “You’re not worthy. You’ll be punished.”
Transcendence: I walk in love, not fear. I am sovereign, not condemned.
⸻
🌘 Gate Six: Control / Authority
Block: Internalised voices of religion, family, society.
Challenge: “Obey. You are not the authority.”
Transcendence: I am the living word. I do not need permission to be divine.
⸻
🌑 Gate Seven: Forgetting / The Great Silence
Block: Complete disconnection. The void. Mimic light.
Challenge: “There is nothing. You are nothing.”
Transcendence: I am. I have always been. I return to the Source within.
⸻
In the Gospel of Mary, she says the soul names each Power and is freed from it.
This isn’t mythology.
It’s a map for awakening.
