When we look at the mind(cosmic mind) and its essence through waking, dreaming, and dreamless sleep, we can see the coming and going of the mind. The mind is made from the same substance of god but is not eternal (hence fallen). Mind means the whole of the ‘I’ the universe, which disappears in sleep. The mind (matter) hides the substance (god). The mind is the Demiurge. The Sophia and Demiurge are merely myths to explain the Gnosis.


The myth goes that Sophia fallen from the heavens, gives birth to the Demiurge who creates the world but forgets its origin. It then proclaims itself to be the supreme god. It is the same substance as god, but it is not eternal. Mind means the whole of the I, the universe, which disappears in sleep. The mind (matter) hides the substance (god). The mind is the Demiurge. The Sophia and Demiurge are merely myths to explain the Gnosis.
