Self-salvation in Gnostic Christianity refers to the inner journey towards spiritual rebirth and enlightenment. It involves shedding the ego's illusions and realizing one's divine essence. This process is continuous and marked by profound personal transformations, leading to gnosis. Unlike orthodox Christian doctrines that emphasize external salvation, Gnostic Christianity teaches that true salvation comes from within, through personal introspection and the awakening of the divine spark​​.
