Apocrypha · Chapter 133 of 148
Wisdom of Faith
Mary said: "My Lord, how then can the soul be delivered from the power of the counterfeit spirit and from the bondage of Destiny?"
2Jesus answered: "Through the mysteries of the Light the power of Destiny is broken, and the soul is set free from the bonds of the stars.
3"And when the soul receiveth the mystery of the Ineffable, the counterfeit spirit is severed from it, and the soul shineth as pure light, untouched by the rulers of matter."
