A History of the Great Wheel and Ten Gates: Manuscript

You have been here before.Not this book - this threshold. The one where something in you goes quiet and something else becomes audible. You know the feeling. You have known it in grief and in love and in the particular stillness of a life that has just changed without asking permission.This is a record of that feeling. Gathered from every tradition that has stood long enough to leave one - Egyptian and Norse and Greek and Sumerian and Hindu and Celtic and every other tongue that has tried to name what happens when a human being meets the edge of what they were and steps through it.Ten Gates. Ten Realms. The testimony of those who crossed, and those who did not. Both are in here. Both are necessary. You will recognise yourself in more of them than you expect.This is not a guide. A guide tells you where to go. This is a record of those who went - what they found, what it cost, what surprised them, what they could not carry out that they carried in.The Wheel has been turning since before any of these traditions had a name for it. It is turning now.You are already inside it.The Gate is open. It has always been open. The only question this book has ever asked - the only question any of these traditions has ever asked - is whether you are willing to look at what it is showing you.Begin.- The Gatekeeper
