No Need for a Demiurge
Gnosticism creates or imagines a 'demiurge' or imbalanced creator for the physical universe, and that the 'true god,' or Monad, the Absolute, is beyond this...
Urianism has always focused on the ideal of integrating the whole self, good and bad, light and dark, left and right, even the feminine and masculine... In a very Jungian fashion, in the frame of individuation. Shadow Work is the idea of integrating your hidden and repressed aspects of self into the greater part of your identity... making the parts you deny and don't want to see, visible. Ego-integration with the whole self, not dissolution.
The Monad vs. Demiurge disappears when you consider that God is Good - but that 'good' is defined by God, not by us. God as wholeness, balance, effectiveness, uniting all opposites within itself - the goal for which every Urian is supposed to strive (authenticity).
As was pointed out by a member of this community, this is Monism - which is One-ism. God as One whole - ruler of the light and the darkness, encircling and transcending the binary all-or-nothing mindset we humans impose on all things. In Gnosticism, this is ABRAXAS. In Urianism The Monad (The One) is wholeness, the harmonious unity of all things, welded together in the ultimate power of Truth and Love. Moreover, in Urianism The One & Whole God is All-Personal - intimately involved with each of us - and you can have a direct relationship with The One.... the idea of needing all kinds of intermediaries might even be considered another trick of the false gods, who always want to distract us and place themselves between us and The One.
