Why depressed and unmotivated?

Also I think there are a few things you may want to look into. Lacan's registers of the psyche, jungs archetypes, and most importantly and specifically plato.

Gnosticism is basically just more syncretic platonism. In platonism the so called demiurge was referred to as the dyad. Its essentially explaning how duality is the root of material experience. Plato did not regard the dyad as evil, its just an integral part of kenomal (phenomenal) reality.

I really wish people here talking about gnosticism would become more educated on this, approaching gnosticism is dogmatic literalism is retarded.

Anyway my point here is come to understand the brahman-atman relationship. 'You' are the dyad and the monad. Lead the son back to the father. Integrate the ego into the superconscious.

Thanks man, at a glance I get what you mean. I'll look into that stuff. 

depressed and unmotivated because the demiurge felt so blissfully ignorant and irresponsible.

I think trying to understand these higher order entities through a human lens is bound to lead us to conclusions about them that aren't accurate.

For example, if you look into the demiurge's origin story and its relation to the sophia, you can see that its basically a literal archetypal level expression of the very same story of the garden of eden we see in genesis. The feminine embraces chaos and removes itself from paradise. My point here is not shitting on the feminine even if it sounds that way. The story of eden is the fall from the non-dual experience of reality to the dualistic experience. When they ate the fruit they gained the knowledge/perception of good and evil. When sophia went against the monad's aeonic order, she created the dyad(duality).
