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.
