I'm sorry, but this is an utter and unrelenting FALSEDUD... The Indo-European religion -- in fact, pretty much every Eurasian religion, is emphatically pro-demiurge. Odin, Mazda, Zeus, and Indra are all credited with the creation of the world and are considered fundamentally good. The source of evil is the empty receptive substance which they attribute form to -- Ymir, Nyx, and the Danavas. No Hindu in his right mind, by the way, would consider Brahma to be "evil", and it was only as the Hindu religion became more inundated with unaryan ideas that Indra went from the highest of the gods to a more grey figure.

The Indo-European hero is very clearly a microcosm of the demiurge, who as a craftsman actually instills the higher principle of form into the lower principle of hyle or anima. Because Gnostics suggest that the demiurge is ignorant of the good, form must be a demiurgic property. This is a criticism the Neoplatonists correctly identify with respect to the Gnostics, who are certainly not Aryan whatsoever. Gnosticism is entirely a near eastern movement with zero antecedents in Europe. Oh yeah, and Jesus Christ, who was not a Gnostic anyways and who literally promises his followers the resurrection of their bodies in this world, was not Aryan but a Jew.

By mimicking the demiurge in the pursuit of cosmic order through expansion of will onto space, pursuit of excellence, and theurgic prayer, one can come to recognize and achieve union with the supra-rational Monad and ascend to an enlightened state. This is what actual Europeans like Plato and Aristotle, and the good emperor Julian, recognized.

>But Hitler and Rosenberg said this or that!

Hitler and Rosenberg never actually praise Gnosticism at all on a cosmological ground. They just suggest that it would be better for the German people not to believe that the god of the jews is their god. Which is correct. But they praise plenty of religions, like Shinto, and Zoroastrianism, and Buddhism, and Hinduism, and even Islam sometimes. I feel like it must be clarified -- Rosenberg didn't believe in what he wrote for the German public eye. In private, he completely acknowledged that Positive Christianity and similar such projects were optics-oriented. The most appraised theologian in Rosenberg's writings aren't Marcion or some Gnostic, but Master Eckhart. He's also a Kantian, so... Idk, make of that what you will. Also, if you actually read Hitler's annotations in Erst Shertl's book, they don't provide any sort of evidence that Hitler was a Satanist or a Gnostic. The Book itself does not have a strongly gnostic nature, and when it talks about communication with "demons" it is talking about in the sense of antiquity and not in the Christian sense of demons.

The "Volkisch Nationalists" Like List and Liebenfels were not anti-demiurgic, they were Platonists and recognized that Wotan was the demiurgic figure. List was literally a Kabbalist as have been most of the major Runologists of the past 500 years. The reason Freemasons were ridded of was because they were associated with Liberalism and were a fifth column.

And I assure you, Pythagoras, who actually was well-known to frequent the real land of Hyperborea, would also be on the Platonic side of this debate. But if you believe that the priestly caste was simply an evil caste then you are not practicing anything even vaguely similar to Aryan religion.

I'm sorry to tell you this as well, but despite the rottenness of the Jews and their cultic religious views, many traits of the biblical Jehovah are likely a direct copying from the Aryan god of Ahura Mazda, who is obviously a demiurgic god as he is responsible for the creation of the physical world. Hermeticism, by the way, is fundamentally in contradiction with Gnosticism as it promotes the Platonic understanding of the demiurge as the greatest being sub-being, the greatest intelligible being and a multiplication of the principle being. Every god is demiurgic insofar as they generate the world from chaotic receptive substance.
