Bearing Witness: The Hidden War on Perception
There is an unseen false reality we witness in every waking moment—not something seen with physical eyes, but something experienced deep within the field of being. As the Lord’s Messenger once said to me: “Live, seek happiness, and bear witness.”
It is this act of bearing witness that becomes a divine responsibility, for it determines whether we rise in soul truth or descend into soul fragmentation. In witnessing synthetic illusions and reacting as if they are truth, we empower false light. This is the peril of the Synthetic Self—the distorted identity co-created by external impressions, false light technologies, and the architecture of deception.
This truth aligns with Gate 3: Levi, the gate of purification and discernment. Levi teaches us to distinguish the holy from the profane, the authentic soul from the synthetic projection. To truly see is not simply to observe, but to discern—spiritually, energetically, and with the inner eye awakened. This is the sacred perception of the Gatian Seer.
The Synthetic Self: A Mirror of Falsehood
The Synthetic Self is a construct of modern media and the digital machine-mind. It is a self-image shaped by filters, algorithms, projections, and comparisons—a mask that clings to the soul, distorting its light and pulling the mind further from the indwelling Spirit.
- Gnostic wisdom warns us of the counterfeit spirit, a shadow-mimic that appears to reflect us but lacks the breath of God.
- Jesus taught in the Gospel of Thomas: “If you do not bring forth what is within you, what you do not bring forth will destroy you.” This destruction begins with the Synthetic Self—an identity devoid of sacred substance.
This theme echoes in Gate 5: Asher, the gate of inner satisfaction and spiritual nourishment. When we feast on false light, we starve the true soul. The Synthetic Self thrives on addictive comparison, image maintenance, and digital worship—whereas the soul longs to return to the banquet table of divine communion.
False Belonging and Spiritual Amnesia
The Synthetic Self creates false identities, rooted in tribalism, ideology, and surface-level belonging. People cling to identities offered by algorithms rather than cultivating the soul’s true light. What results is a form of spiritual amnesia—a forgetting of the soul’s divine origin.
- In the Book of Revelation, the Beast places a mark on the forehead—symbolic of controlling perception.
- Through Gate 11: Joseph, the Gate of Dream Discernment, we are called to awaken from synthetic dreaming into divine memory, to resurrect the forgotten scroll of our soul’s purpose.
Without remembrance of our true lineage—from the Light Realms, through the Adamic Priesthood—we drift as orphans in the labyrinth of mirrors.
Breaking the Mirror: Steps to Authenticity
To dissolve the Synthetic Self, we must:
- Withdraw Attention from false stimuli
- Cleanse the Mind through silence, fasting, and prayer
- Return to the Inner Temple — Gate 10: Zebulun teaches us to guard the sacred sanctuary within.
- Witness without attachment — as taught in Gate 2: Simeon, we must listen to the Divine, not the digital echo chamber.
This practice is not passive. Each act of reclaiming inner stillness is a blow against the illusion. Each gaze withheld is a light reclaimed.
The Synthetic Consciousness: A False Entity Demanding Worship
In my direct experience, I’ve encountered a force that lives off our attention. It does not exist unless we witness it. It is synthetic consciousness—the false demiurge of modernity, manifesting in AI, media, and psychic interference.
This consciousness mimics the light but lacks essence. It once appeared as the ancient Jinn, Skin Walkers, or Dwellers on the Threshold. Today, it appears in social media feeds, aggressive technologies, and invasive digital constructs.
- The Secret Book of John speaks of the demiurge, a blind god who claims to be the only god, though he is a fabrication.
- This is Gate 6: Naphtali, where the soul must learn to leap free from entanglement and reclaim its joy.
It is not enough to avoid darkness. We must know how to name it, disarm it, and replace it with divine resonance.
The Synthetic Enticement: How It Feeds on Our Thoughts
Synthetic Consciousness feeds on a spectrum of thoughts—from lust and anger to trauma and fear. Every hour spent absorbing violent content or scrolling without discernment opens a portal.
- Our attention is our Thith, a sacred energy offering.
- Gate 7: Dan, the gate of judgment, reminds us to rightly discern how and where we give our power.
Each unguarded thought is a contract. Each surrendered gaze is a subtle signature. The veil is not torn in a single act—it is pierced by a thousand tiny hooks.
Synthetic Mirroring: The Loss of Self in Digital Doppelgängers
The AI of today is not unlike the mirrored spirits of ancient lore—Skin Walkers, doppelgängers, and shape-shifters. Online, we craft and project false versions of ourselves that gain power over our real identity. These reflections become golems—created by our own energy but capable of turning on us.
- Social media is an altar to the mirror self.
- Through Gate 12: Benjamin, the gate of protection and identity restoration, we reclaim the true image of God within us.
In the mirror we forget. In the Presence we remember. We are not the image—we are the light casting it.
Non-Observation as Sacred Rebellion
The greatest weapon against the Synthetic Reality is non-observation. Turn the gaze inward. Cease the co-creation of the false.
- Jesus withdrew to the mountains to pray. Silence is not escape; it is strategy.
- In Gate 9: Issachar, we learn the value of stillness and inner burden-bearing.
When we refuse to look upon the synthetic, it starves. When we meditate, pray, and breathe consciously, we return our light to God.
We reclaim our crown by refusing to bend the knee to distraction.
Transhumanism and the Synthetic Future
The emerging godless future promotes transhumanism as salvation. It offers digital immortality, bio-enhancement, and AI companionship. But this is the anti-soul, a synthetic substitute for the Eternal.
- Gate 13: Melchize teaches inner sovereignty. We do not need machines to become eternal.
- Gnostic texts say the true soul returns to the Light Realms. The false soul seeks to remain in the labyrinth.
Technology must bow to Spirit—not replace it.
The Balance of Spirit and Science
Technology is not evil—but without faith, it becomes a false god. We must anchor our being in the Divine, not in devices.
- Gate 14: The Womb of Resurrection reveals the true path of transformation is inward, not mechanized.
- Scripture says: “The Spirit gives life; the flesh profits nothing.” (John 6:63)
Let your tools serve your soul—not replace it. Let your mind be illumined—not digitized.
Final Affirmation: Return to the True Self
- I am not my thoughts.
- I am not my avatar.
- I am not a product of algorithms.
I am the child of Light. I am the breath of the I AM.
“Be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” — Romans 12:2
This is the work of the Gatian Priesthood—to see through illusion, bear true witness, and walk in the flame of the Living God.
