✧ The Journey Through the 14 Gates — Overview (Children’s/Beginner Version)

This simplified narrative follows a central character—Eliah, a soul born of Light—who journeys through the 14 Gates of spiritual awakening. Each Gate becomes a chapter in their inner adventure, with rich symbolism made accessible to younger or beginner audiences.
