 If you're in a place where it is safe and appropriate for you, please close your eyes and begin to take some nice, long, slow, deep, relaxing breaths in through your nose and out through your mouth. With every inhale, feel more light and peace entering your body and mind. With every exhale, feel like you're able to let go of all tension from your body.
Along with anything in your mind that you do not want. Inhaling peace. And exhaling as you let go. We picture ourselves on top of a beautiful mountain. In the center of a circular grove of trees. In the center of this grove, a bonfire burns forth, lighting us and the grove with a sacred golden light. We realize that this is the light of perfect love and perfect trust, and it burns away everything unlike itself, leaving us safe and serene.
Into this sacred circle, we invoke the presence of our Creator. To many of us, our creator reveals themselves to be a mother and father, a goddess and god. We also call upon our guides, our teachers, our angels. We ask that they join with us as we walk upon the way, guiding us to be happier, more powerful, more wise, more peaceful, and more loving people.
very much. Blessed be. I had a couple of requests to talk about the demiurge, so I thought I would take some time to do that today. The name demiurge comes from a Greek word, demiurgos, which means craftsman or artisan, producer, architect, creator. From the point of view of that Greek word, it's a fashioner, a molder, a builder.
It's not Creator from the point of view of the Godhead who creates by extending itself. In the creation myths of the Bible, there are two. There's Genesis 1 and then there's Genesis 2. Genesis 1 deals with the Creator as being Elohim. Elohim is a collective. It's a singular plurality. You can think of that as being the host of heaven.
A collective that acts as a unity. And Elohim created the universe, or creates the universe, really, in the present tense from the perspective of magic, and that this was all the angels acting as one, the Creator as being one, the throne of God being one mind, but a collective. In that creation myth, the seven days represent the seven planets, which can represent the seven different archangels, if you think of it that way, it can represent the basic seven powers that were a major part of all classical And Metaphysics, philosophy, and magic, the seven planets of old.
The creation of humans in that story in the first Genesis, there, it was a creation of the soul, the creation of the perfect human. They were androgynous. There was one. There was a, there was a, a unity. Genesis 1 we might say is a depiction of the Elohim creating the universe and then extending itself as a human being, the perfect soul.
Then in Genesis 2, we don't have the Elohim. All of a sudden we have Yahweh Elohim. We have that first sphere on the tree of life and then the second sphere, which is the masculine. Now what this means to many Luciferian magicians is that Yahweh Elohim represented Yahweh or the Tetragrammaton. as the representative of the Elohim.
Now, let's just finish this thought and then we'll go back. In the Bible, Tetragrammaton is oftentimes the representation of the Demiurge. And this is why. It's not that the Tetragrammaton or Yahweh was the Demiurge. The Demiurge was an imposter who impersonated the Tetragrammaton. In the Old Testament, there are times when it seems very obvious that the Demiurge is impersonating God, and there's other times when it's obviously God.
And that's the confusing part of the Bible. From that point of view, is that your job as a reader is not so much to just believe everything it says, as it's to see, is this the Demiurge? Or is this God? Because they're both coming out as the same voice, as the same name, and we have to see, based on how that entity is treating people, what it is.
And this is how the Demiurge got created. A lot of times people think of the Demiurge and they say, Oh, so Lucifer is the Demiurge? No, not at all. The Demiurge was not created by God. The Demiurge was a byproduct of the creation of an ego. The Demiurge is like a nothing. The Demiurge is, acts like a robot.
But it is a, the architect. Of what we think the real world is, because there's a, there's the world that was created in Genesis 1, and then there's the world that was created in Genesis 2. And they're not the same. They're similar sometimes, but they're not the same. So, what happened in Genesis 2 was that the Yahweh figure put Adam to sleep, gave Adam anesthesia, so that it could extract from Adam its female part, and then make Adam and its female part, called Eve, believe.
that they were separate from one another, and that they had to exist in this garden, basically, as automatons, as robots. You do what we tell you. We do what we tell you to do. And they were basically the slaves of the Demiurge, who was impersonating the Demiurge. God. Why did this happen? Somewhere between Genesis 1 and Genesis 2, Lucifer tried to do more than Lucifer was supposed to do.
Lucifer tried to do something good. This is why when people say, all you need is intention. Intention is all you need, I think. Sometimes intention is not so great. Just because you have good intentions doesn't mean that good things always come. Because what happened was the brightest angel in heaven saw that human beings were slowly evolving and said, Wait a minute, they don't need to be so slow.
Let's speed it up. Why don't we give them everything? Why don't we give them all the enlightenment? And then because Lucifer, rather than thinking In concert with the Creator, Lucifer started thinking all by Lucifer's self and gave freedom of choice to humanity before humanity was capable of understanding it.
As a result of that, Each human started thinking all by itself, which was not something that was ever supposed to happen, autonomously, as if they were separate. It fragmented the entirety of the human mind, of the human consciousness. And that fragmentation inadvertently caused the creation of the ego.
and the over ego, which is called the demiurge. If you think about the soul of humanity, every person has a soul, they're like a ray of light straight from source, and then there's an over soul. In Christianity, they call that the Son of God. There's an over soul. The Holy Child of God, the holy Child of the Creator.
There's that over soul. There's that version of an over soul. In the ego as well, there's the over ego that's called the demi urge. What the Demi urge did is as a result of being created, started to create a world based upon the idea that we were separate from our source. And that was caused by Lucifer, but Lucifer wasn't doing it.
You know how sometimes you make a mistake and you go, Oh, I didn't know that would happen. It was one of those. As a result of that, according to the story, Lucifer had to immediately get busy and start to heal and fix the problem. And that's why One of Lucifer's jobs is to turn people away from the Demiurge and back toward the real world, back toward their soul, away from their ego, back toward their soul, and re educate them so that we can unify again.
In the second Genesis, God puts Adam to sleep and says, Now we're going to extract you. That's not God. That's the Demiurge, creating a separate world. That's why the serpent in that story, from this point of view, tempts Eve. Eden is not what you think it is. You're not beholden to this thing that's calling itself God.
You don't want to go down this road. You have to disobey this God in order for you to find the true God, which is waiting for you. That's the one that we heard about in Genesis 1. You The one in Genesis 2, this Yahweh Elohim, is a real extension of God, but that's not this God. The Demiurge is impersonating Yahweh Elohim, which is making everything very complicated and very confusing.
And that's why we live in such a confusing world, because when Lucifer gave freedom of of choice and free will to humanity before they were able to contend with it, before they were ready for it. It caused the fragmentation of the human mind, which also then caused the creation of a demi urge, which created a separate world, a pseudo world, and that's the world we live in, the pseudo world.
And that's what that demi urge is constantly The architect of is everything that's not real. And that's why we say we live in a world of maya, we live in a world of illusion, because everything that we think that we see here is based on our personal perceptions. That's exactly the way that architect, the demiurge, builds things for you.
But the demiurge isn't an entity. The Demiurge is just a robot. It's a nothing. It really is a nothing. And until we realize that this world is a big nothing, we're going to react to it the way we do, and that's with fear, and with hatred, and with war, and the need to be right, the need to reinforce our understanding of reality.
Until we are capable of moving beyond our perceptions of this world and beyond the perceptions of what the Demiurge builds for us, we are constantly at war with one another. Because that's what we believe. We believe that we are separate. We believe that we are fragmented. We believe that this world does exist.
We believe this is a painful world. Adam was put to sleep. And has been having this nightmare ever since. There's no indicator in that story, or anywhere else in that whole book, that Adam ever woke up again. So Adam, in the original idea of what Adam is, before that separation, is androgynous. The idea of male and female being separate, and so that we have to procreate and do all of that kind of stuff, that is the illusion set forth by the demiurge.
Who is androgynous.
So a lot of people think that they're praying to God when they're praying to the architect of this world. They're praying to nothing. Because this world is nothing, but there is a world that God did create where we actually do live, but we're asleep, because we are all Adam, that androgyne. And there's the mystery that the same way that the Elohim is a collective and is one, That is the same as us, as souls of the Elohim.
We are a collective, and we are also one. You are a unique soul, but you're also part of a greater oversoul. But with the ego, you are separate, and then you are part of this matrix of separation. So the matrix of separation in the demiurge can never reconcile. There's no reconciling that. It's always going to be at war with itself because it is a phantasm.
It doesn't really exist. It is based on a lie. It is based on a mistruth that was an unintentional byproduct of that first Luciferian mistake. Let's rush things. Let's do things different. Let's think all by ourselves. Let's do something on our own, separate from the creator. And that's where all that whole drama started.
Now, none of this is something that you should believe in. You don't want to get superstitious about this. These are all ideas where you, so that you can contextualize things, that you can understand the ego, you can understand how egos interact, that you can understand beyond this ego, there is another reality where we are one as souls.
And once that mist clears up, once we get beyond that illusion, we realize that none of that's really happening the way we think it is. It's just within the realm of a hallucination or a nightmare. And this nightmare is something that was caused by the demiurge, which was a byproduct of our own vain delusion.
imaginings. Lucifer, remember, is not an external entity. Lucifer was God's beloved child, God's beloved angel, and Lucifer went out on his own and did his own thing and made a big mistake. But what the Demiurge wants you to believe is then God cast Lucifer into hell and there was a big war and the only way to get back to heaven is to defeat Lucifer.
That doesn't make any sense whatsoever. Infinite intelligence is perfect love. And if infinite intelligence created something, then that something is always loved. And it's always perfect. It's always, quote, forgiven. The only thing that isn't forgiven is that which doesn't exist. And that's the demiurge, not Lucifer.
Lucifer's an angel. God created the angel. The demiurge was a byproduct. God didn't create the demiurge. God created the demiurge. God didn't create the ego, God didn't create the idea of separation, God didn't create the idea of war, God didn't create any of these things which are causing us to, to stay asleep, causing us to stay dreaming of these nightmares, that, that is not created by God.
The infinite, not created by Elohim. So, if Elohim didn't create it, it ultimately doesn't exist. But we can believe it does because of the power of our minds. Prometheus gave fire to humanity, which caused Pandora's box to be opened. It's the same exact type of myth when Lucifer gave us our free will, which caused the demiurge to be created.
And then all of the problems of humanity, which We're born as a result of that, because we started thinking all by ourselves, without any direction, without any understanding, and all we had was our free will to think however we wanted to. Whew, wasn't that a bad idea? That was a really bad idea, but it happened.
And now Lucifer's job is to get us back together again, is to get us back on track, to unite the fragmented mind. of the Holy Child of God, so that we can become one again with that first idea of Adam, that the Elohim really did create, which was androgynous, and pure, and perfect, and has no problems, and is actually asleep, and well, happy, and safe.
where it was created. So that idea in Genesis 2 of Eden is a very different idea of the true Eden, or that true home, that true heaven, where we already are existing. In Genesis 2, the Demiurge put us in a situation where we had to fail. It knew full well that if you give us free choice between these two trees and say don't eat that one, the first thing we're going to do is eat that one.
So it knew that we were going to fail. So Lucifer wanted to make sure that he was in there on Eve's side to make sure that she knew you're not going to die. But get ready, because this is going to open your eyes, and you're going to see the truth. And it's not pretty at first, but then when you get beyond what's not so pretty, ultimately you can open your eyes to the truth, where everything is perfect.
So in that regard, Lucifer and all the quote, fallen angels in those stories were there to help, to come down to the place of fragmentation where we were all suffering, to help us, to bring us back. To bring us back into ourselves. The idea of the fallen angels being evil is definitely something that the Demiurge wanted us to believe.
Because if you believe that your helpers are evil, it's very much like a schizophrenic believes that those drugs are really bad for them. I'm not taking those drugs, those are bad for me. I'm not following those angels, they're fallen, they're evil. When in reality, the reason why they descended was to help us, was to bring us back to sanity, was to reunite our minds so that we could remember who we are and gently wake up and realize that this big nightmare was a mistake.
and that all is well. And that's the whole Luciferian mythos regarding the demiurge. The demiurge is an imposter, and you can see that imposter working in your life very practically. When you notice that you think something's good for you, you think something's your god, you think something is great, and you realize, oh dear, that was a bad idea.
That's not good. It's not what I thought it was. We go through that again and again in our lives. And that's what the demiurge is. Listening to the architect of the physical world is not a good idea. Instead, you need to learn how to listen to the wisdom that lies beyond the illusions of this world. And that's where your inner guide comes into play.
Some people see Lucifer himself as their inner guide, that fire from within. Another way to look at Lucifer is there's two sides of Lucifer. There's the fallen Lucifer, the one that made the mistake. When we all fragmented, our power coiled up like a serpent in the base of our spines. And then as we are enlightened, as Lucifer teaches us how to come back to who we are, that serpent Uncoils and rises up our spine until our eyes are open and we see the truth.
And when we see the truth, we realize that we are the risen Lucifer, one and the same. And we are all one and all is well. That's the Gnostic Luciferian perspective of what the Demiurge is. Just a quick overview. But like I said, it's a very fascinating topic, and it's important that you don't take any esoteric or occult topic or concept and think of it in terms of a religious story to believe in.
You want to question and find different points of understanding within your own self. And any story In any kind of mythology is only helpful if each character and event in that story means something that's going on within your own mind. Who is Lucifer in you? Who is the Demiurge in you? Who is Elohim in you, etc.
Who are these characters in you? Where does this all happen inside your mind? This is a process of awakening for you personally. And you don't want to think in terms of history, and this is what happened millions of years ago, and this is what's happening outside of me, because that's just more of the same.
That's more of the same demi urge, putting everything outside of you, as if things are happening to you, rather than things are happening from you, and things are happening through you. This is a very interesting concept, and it's something that's worth a great deal of contemplation and meditation, and I invite you to spend some time with it.
Thank you so much for spending a little time with me today. Until next time, blessed be.
