BEZA’s Training Mandala

Gatekeepers are shamanic practitioners whose function is to purify the energies they let in and out of their being. By attuning, cleansing, and bringing these energies into balance, Gatekeepers become the Wisdom Keepers of the World. They are initiates of the 5 Elemental Bodies of the Medicine Wheel — the body of Mother Earth from whom we originate.

A Gatekeeper upholds integrity and responsibility in all relationships – professional and personal. They serve the transformational power of love for the benefit of all beings.
