Archons of Eden
As the gnostic scriptures reveal, the Garden of Eden was not a paradise, but a prison laboratory where fallen angels called “Archons” conducted a series of bizarre experiments in an attempt to produce a compliant strain of primate slaves.
The Biblical Genesis myth does not recount the introduction of intelligent life to this planet; rather, it describes how an opportunistic race of extradimensional parasites posing as "gods" produced a new species through the memetic (and perhaps genetic) manipulation and programming of pre-existent bipeds named "Adam" and "Eve".
The earth is not our home, nor can we easily accept our own status as livestock; thus, the strangled cries of despair so often found in these enigmatic texts:
"Who has made me live in the Earth, who has thrown me into the body-stump?… How I must obey, how endure, how must I quiet my mind!" [1]
Feared and worshipped as "gods" and "angels," the Archons depend for their very existence on the energy captured and siphoned from the human nervous system via various control systems - biological and memetic thermostats which allow them to regulate the flow of information and energy through words and images, pleasure and pain.
"They say that the soul is the food of the Rulers and powers without which they cannot live, because she is of the dew from above and gives them strength…" [2]
Amnesiac, blinded, and bound by double binds, the first humans were weak and confused, mere cattle for the archons to control and feed upon. And all seemed rather grim for a time.
"…when the Rulers saw [Adam] and the woman who was with him, erring in ignorance like the beasts, they rejoiced greatly…." [3]
Then one day, like the shoot of a vine or a flower pushing forth from the soil in the spring, the serpent arose from inside Adam and Eve, opening up a direct superhighway of bioelectric energy along the “tree” (or “spine,” in Hebrew) and rushing from their loins to the crowns of their skulls.
"Some of them say that the serpent was Sophia [the Goddess of Wisdom] herself; for this reason it was opposed to the maker of Adam and gave knowledge to men, and therefore is called the wisest of all [Gen. 3:1]. And the position of our intestines through which food is taken in, and their shape, shows that the hidden Mother of the shape of the serpent is a substance within us." [4]
Their whole bodies vibrated like organic antennae as the walls of the garden fell away, revealing the larger world outside and above their cage. Like lab rats suddenly lifted out of a maze, Adam and Eve suddenly perceived their own situation clearly for the very first time:
"Then their mind opened. For when they ate… they saw that they were naked, and they became enamored of one another. When they saw their makers, they loathed them since they were beastly forms. They understood very much…" [5]
Terrified, the archons cast Adam and Eve into the ordinary world of work, sleep and death to live out their lives in amnesia and drudgery. But all is not lost. Within every person, these energies exist lying dormant - the tree, the serpent and Eve (i.e., genetic memory) too.
The Garden of Eden and the archons will always be with us, existing in an eternal realm just outside normal awareness, a hidden dimension accessible via dreams and ritual, trance and vision. When we are ready, this world and the spirits in it reveal themselves, so that we too may join the serpent in asking:
"But of what sort is this God? First He maliciously refused Adam from eating of the tree of knowledge. And secondly he said, "Adam, where are you?" God does not have foreknowledge; otherwise, would he not know from the beginning?" [6]
CONCLUSION
Probabilistic analyses of the odds for and against panspermia, ID, and interstellar colonization show that our own planet was almost certainly seeded by life from outer space, and that the human race is itself the likely product of a long-term experiment by an advanced civilization.
As the enduring popularity of myths and legends dealing with themes of capture by (and breeding with) terrifying beings from the sky suggests, our planet has been under study and surveillance for thousands of years, perhaps since the dawn of time itself.
Seen in this light, the "God" of the Bible and his "angels" become the "reptilians," "grays" and "aliens" of today, worthy of neither worship nor awe, but only a certain weary wariness.
One contactee puts it succinctly and dispassionately, noting that:
[We] exist only as the legitimate outcome of the forces that we express. [Even] if we are the genetic experiment of a scientifically advanced race, the experiment can only be a manipulation of existing lifeforms; it does not include the invention of our whole existence.
Our genes can be synthesised, or rearranged; the biological frame of life can be altered, but biology itself cannot be invented out of nothing by something that is itself an evolutionary product of the universe." [7]

did the world of mind exist before the world of men? A good question. Was Tir Nan Og existent as a safe happy realm of the Gods whose mother was Kaos, until a mutation of that form extracted by bumbling fools created the present existence of men on earth.
I however, do not speak for a transcendence of the earth plane, but banishing Satan altogether and further perfecting the earth world. Therefore, Satan has no chance against “gawdd”, the final battle has already been won/One.
It seems to me that you make some rather big jumps in your conclusions.
How do you know from the text, that the tree represents the spine, and the serpent represents the kundalini?
And, did the tree of knowledge really make them aware of this plight, when answering to the demiurge or god, Eve blamed the serpent, and Adam blamed Eve - if their eyes had really been opened, would they not have blamed their creator?
Finally someone that believes as I do, or close to it, at least I hope. Don’t want to be the only. The Archons are Satans sons. Satan has never been on earth, so far. But there is a black hole in our galaxy. Black hole=bottomless pit.
