Guardian of the Threshold

The Guardian of the Threshold is a menacing figure that is described by a number of esoteric teachers.〔Madame Blavatsky, ''Isis Unveiled'', 1877〕〔Rudolf Steiner, “Knowledge of the Higher Worlds”(1904-5),() Online English edition (1947, New York)() and ''An Outline of Occult Science'' first German edition 1909. Online English edition (1972, New York), chapter 5()()〕〔Dion Fortune, “The Mystical Qabalah”, 1950〕〔Samael Aun Weor, "The Perfect Matrimony", 1950〕 The term "Guardian of the Threshold", often called "dweller on the threshold" indicates a spectral image which is supposed to manifest itself as soon as "the student of the spirit ascends upon the path into the higher worlds of knowledge".〔Franz Hartmann, The Dweller of the Threshold, Reprinted from The Theosophist, Vol. XI 1889〕〔Rudolf Steiner,An Outline of Occult Science,Anthroposophic Press 1972〕〔Tommaso Palamidessi, The Guardians of the Threshold, ed. Archeosofica, 1969〕 ''The Guardian of the Threshold'' is also the title of the third play (of a tetralogy of 'Mystery Dramas') written by Rudolf Steiner in 1912.
This is also a term that is used to describe Ganesha, a Hindu god.
==According to theosophy==

The "Dweller of the Threshold" (or "Guardian of the Threshold") is a literary invention of the English mystic and novelist Edward Bulwer Lytton, found in his romance ''Zanoni'' (1842).
Shortly after publication of the book, the term gained wide currency in theosophical circles. The Guardian of the Threshold is a spectral figure and is the abstract of the debit and credit book of the individual. "It is the combined evil influence that is the result of the wicked thoughts and acts of the age in which any one may live, and it assumes to each student a definite shape at each appearance, being always either of one sort or changing each time"〔Eusebio Urban, Path, December, 1888〕 "This Dweller of the Threshold meets us in many shapes. It is the Cerberus guarding the entrance to Hades; the Dragon which St. Michael (spiritual will-power) is going to kill; the Snake which tempted Eve, and whose head will be crushed by the heel of the woman; the Hobgoblin watching the place where the treasure is buried, etc. He is the king of evil, who will not permit that within his kingdom a child should grow up, which might surpass him in power; the Herod before whose wrath the divine child Christ has to flee into a foreign country, and is not permitted to return to his home (the soul) until the king (Ambition, Pride, Vanity, Self-righteousness, etc.) is dethroned or dead."〔Franz Hartmann, The Dweller of the Threshold, Reprinted from The Theosophist, Vol. XI 1889〕 According to Max Heindel, the Dweller on the Threshold must be confronted by every aspirant—usually at an early stage of his progress into the unseen worlds—and is one of the main causes of obsession.〔Max Heindel, ''The Web Destiny'', Rosicrucian Fellowship〕
