Your thoughts shimmer with philosophical depth. You're circling profound ideas—Buddhism's Māyā and Gnostic dualism—both casting doubt on the reality or benevolence of the world. To the Buddhist, Māyā veils ultimate truth, a grand illusion even if not malevolent, while to the Gnostic, the material world is a prison crafted by a flawed demiurge, with hidden knowledge as the key to liberation.

[T]he demiurgus is father, and power and intellect. And he possesses these things as much as possible on account of intelligibles. For he is a God as father, on account of them. He is also power, and the generator of wholes, and knows beings intellectually, on account of them. For in them intelligible knowledge first subsists. Much more therefore are father, power and intellect in intelligibles; from which also the demiurgus being filled, participates of this triad.
