Gate 46, known as Pushing Upward and the Gate of Determination of the Self, is a biological mechanism located in the G Center within the Collective Abstract (Sensing) Circuit. Its core function is Determination through Embodiment, providing the physical stamina and perseverance required to remain fully engaged in lived experience until discovery occurs. It represents the love of the body as a temple and the mechanical realization of serendipity—the good fortune of being in the right place at the right time.
The 46th gate focuses on being present in the physical body and embracing life as it is. It’s about surrendering to one’s nature and recognizing that true love comes from being in harmony with the creative process, not through external gestures. This gate highlights the importance of dedicating oneself to the body and its needs, such as diet and comfort, as part of the human experience. Through the 46/29 channel, good fortune arises from fully immersing in experiences and reflecting on them after the fact, rather than seeking a specific outcome. It’s about living authentically in the body and accepting the journey.

It’s applied mechanics—for readers who want to understand how this Gate operates in lived reality.
The Quarter of Duality is the third quadrant of the Mandala, characterized by the mystical theme “Measure for Measure.”Within this quadrant, purpose is fulfilled through Bonding, marking the stage where life moves beyond personal conceptualization and physical construction to meet the mechanical necessity of the other. It is often described as the most mundane—and most intimately human—of the four quarters, as it centers on crossing the boundary of individual separateness to engage in the realities of relationship and co-creation.
Mechanically, this quarter governs the genetic imperative to reproduce and replicate the species. Through bonding, intimacy, and alliance, it ensures humanity’s continuity by guiding individuals toward viable partnerships and supportive social structures.
This quadrant is anchored by the Channel of Discovery (29–46) and the Channel of Mating (59–6), and it contains all seven gates of the Spleen Center, which supply the instinctive survival intelligence required to form and maintain these bonds. The relational and protective nature of this quarter can be seen through the following examples:
Ultimately, the Quarter of Duality teaches that human well-being is realized not in isolation, but within a social context. Through relationship, support, and intimacy, the individual aligns with the forces necessary for survival, continuity, and shared evolution.

“Born Alan (Robert) Krakower in Montreal, Canada April 9, 1948. He disappeared in 1983 and re-emerged as Ra on the Island of Ibiza and began a process of mystical deconstruction climaxing with his encounter with the “Voice.” Titled ‘Uru Hu’ by the “Voice,” Ra’s encounter and education lasted from January 3-11, 1987.”
