About Gate 38

Gate 38 carries the pressure to find what is worth fighting for — the purposeful individual struggle against opposition. This gate does not fight blindly; it searches for the meaningful resistance that reveals something essential about life and worth. In Ra Uru Hu's system, Gate 38 pairs with Gate 28 (The Game Player) through the Channel of Struggle, where the fighter's determination meets the game player's hunger for meaning in purposeful individual contest.

Gate 10 is the Love of Self - not narcissism, but the behavior of the self. Walking your talk. It is the foundation of self-empowerment.
