Hypostasis of the Archons

Hypostasis of the archons is an old religious idea that says that the world is controlled by a group of powerful spiritual beings called archons. According to this belief, these archons, or “rulers”, are responsible for creating and maintaining order in the universe. They do this by controlling our thoughts and actions, as well as shaping and limiting our perception of reality. The idea is that these archons are working behind the scenes, keeping us from achieving complete spiritual understanding and freedom.
